Wednesday, Jan. 23-Sunday, Jan. 27: Tacoma Home & Garden Show

Tacoma Dome

By Volcano Staff on January 14, 2013

Judging by the looks of John and Sherry Petersik of Young House Love blog fame, this annual prompt for spring cleaning - the Tacoma Home & Garden Show - is aiming for the young market. The Petersiks are one of those likable young couples that drives you nuts. Not only are they hopelessly photogenic (and charmingly self-deprecating) but they've managed to turn their love of fixing up their old house into a bankable career. If you're mad about keeping up with the Young Joneses, then this congregation of 750 trendy exhibitors will inflame those covetous inclinations. The popular Vintage Market returns this year as repurposed and shabby-chic items for the garden and home are spotlighted by more than 20 local vendors. The Puget Sound Chapter of the National Kitchen & Bath Association busts out the latest trends in design. Local gardening stud Ciscoe Morris will be sharing advice and helpful tips on an assortment of gardening topics. Rare, unique and popular plant offerings will be in the spotlight at the show's annual plant sale. Hit this five-day monstrosity and transform your curbside nightmare into the envy of the neighborhood.

TACOMA DOME, 11 A.M. TO 8 P.M. JAN. 23-25, 10A.M. TO 8 P.M JAN. 26, 10 A.M. TO 5 P.M. JAN. 27, $8-$10, 2727 E. D ST., TACOMA, 253.272.3663
