Buckley residents will have a new place to shop in mid-December.
Wayman’s Vintage Market, 135 Jefferson Ave., Suite E, is slated to open its doors next month. The market will feature items including upcycled furniture, vintage goods and home decor.
Owners Chris and Cody Wayman said the market will have a clean and crisp feel. It will not be like a vintage market where things have been sitting on the shelves for a long time.
“As far as the market that we do, there’s nothing like it in Buckley,” Chris Wayman said.
After the market officially opens, its business hours will be daily from 10 am to 6 pm until further notice.
The 3,000 square foot market will feature businesses such as: Urban Junktion, CAT’S MEOW, Precious @ntiques, RUST, Willow’s Vintage, Jeanell, Tilly & Walt, Mabel & Mimi, Family Creation 4 U, Creative Intention, Sunne Shop and Florita. Boutique.
People can expect to find updated clothing as well as clothing from the 1960s and 80s. The vendor will also sell engraved signs, coasters and cutting boards. Another vendor will have naturally made candles.
The Waymans will also be selling their wares at the market. They specialize in upcycled furniture as well as dog collars and leashes, Chris Wayman said. The couple will have temporary tattoos and iron-on patches.
Chris Wayman, 37, said the vintage market “just happened” for him and Cody Wayman, 27. It all started when they created decorations for a rustic wedding in 2017 and when a relative asked them to paint furniture.
“We kind of liked it, so we just went with it, and then it just took off,” Chris Wayman said.
The couple previously had a place to sell their wares at Inta Vintage at 1109 Main St. in Sumner. Establishing their vintage market in Buckley was the “next step” in their growth, Chris Wayman said.
“What we envision for our future is having our own vintage market,” Chris Wayman said.
Chris Wayman was born in Puyallup and raised in Orting. Cody Wayman was born in Enumclaw and raised in Buckley. The Waymans have lived together in the city for about seven years.
