Shop Local in Winnipeg
Half the shop is not ours, and that is on purpose.
Pure Wash on Ness Avenue carries more than twenty Canadian makers alongside our own handmade soap and skincare. Buying one thing from that half supports a workshop table somewhere, usually within an hour of here.
Who you will find
- Prairie Made Co. — raw Manitoba honey from hives in Cloverleaf, and beach glass jewellery gathered from Lake Manitoba
- KJRB Stitching Corner — hand-crocheted toys and loveys, a favourite for new-baby gifts
- Blushcreationsco — hand-decorated glass mugs and cups
- As You Wish Candle Co. — hand-poured soy candles
- forestmama — small-batch herbal tinctures, hydrosols and salves
- Aurora Home Accents — hand-poured Jesmonite trays, dishes and soap dishes
- Artsy Anita — suncatchers and handmade greeting cards
- Toenzz — Winnipeg-inspired t-shirts and dog bandanas

And more besides — aromatherapy, crystals, hot sauce, needle-felted pet portraits, kombucha.
Why it is set up this way
A lot of Manitoba makers are one person at a kitchen table. Markets are seasonal, a website is a full-time job on its own, and rent on a storefront is out of reach for most.
A shared shelf solves that. They get a year-round retail spot without the overheads; customers get twenty makers in one trip instead of twenty separate online orders and twenty shipping charges.
What else is under the same roof
Alongside the makers you will find our own handmade soap, our small-batch skincare, and a zero waste refill station where you bring your own bottle and pay by weight.
Making something yourself?
We take on new makers when there is room and the work fits. If you make something by hand in Manitoba, get in touch.
