A specialty gift shop is opening soon in Ballard. Curated, a boutique that features locally made and small business-sourced products, will open its second location at 2211 NW Market St.
Curated is moving into the former Daily Ritual Market location, which closed a couple of weeks ago, with plans to shift to a pop-up model.
Curated’s new Ballard location follows the store’s original shop in Gig Harbor. Curated will have a rotating selection of artisan goods, seasonal pop-ups, and community events. The store will also provide gift boxes and concierge-style customer service.
Curated was founded by Tiffany Brooks, a retail professional with a background in luxury retail and a focus on intentional gifting. The shop’s offerings are centered around supporting small businesses and community-oriented brands.
“We’ve always believed that a great gift tells a story,” said Brooks. “Opening in Ballard allows us to share more stories of small makers, local favorites, and purposeful products with a new community that values connection, craftsmanship, and creativity.”
The Ballard shop is set to open on Saturday, August 9. Updates and information about the store can be found on Instagram at @Curated_Ballard.
