In case you’ve been living under a rock, we officially opened our first original storefront on February 1st at 1113B St. Mary in NOLA!
The shop is right off of Magazine Street in the Lower Garden District/”LGD,” near Half Moon Bar and HiVolt Coffee. The front half of the space is the storefront, shared with two fellow New Orleans creatives: DVRA, selling her handmade, tropical pouches, and Disko Obscura, selling vinyl records and more. Our Tchoup studio takes up the back half of the space, and you are welcome to peep in on our small team hand-making each of our Tchoup bags. No more having to find us at our next art market or festival… We will have all of our available bags set out for purchase in the shop nearly every day of the week! We are affectionately referring to our section of the store as the #TchoupShop.
[Our signs are handmade locally by Mystic Blue Signs.]
We’ve gotten some great coverage from iHeartNOLA and New Orleans Tidbits including photos of the space. We will be posting more to our Facebook as it comes in, so make sure you are following us!
Our hours are Tuesday – Sunday, 11am-7pm. Come stop by and bayou dat bag. We’ll be so happy to see you!
