History

Established in 2010.

Make Good began with a hope for bringing locally handcrafted wonders to our friends and neighbors. Sophia, Make Good’s founder and owner, grew up thrift-​store shopping, which developed into a love for making and creating, usually from found items and recycled materials, things she could give new life to. Here in San Diego and Tijuana, Sophia found others who loved doing the same, and still others who loved buying items that they knew were locally handcrafted, original creations that can’t be found anywhere else. From this ideal, Make Good was born.

San Diego is home to a vibrant, thriving handmade arts movement, and Make Good has found itself in the middle of it. With over 100 artists from San Diego and Tijuana, it’s a labor a love, and one we’re deeply grateful for. Every piece we sell has a story. We love sharing those, so stop by and say hello.

Business Owner

It all started with a bag of old ties that my dad gave me as a kid. I turned them into barbie dresses and I never looked back. I grew up with an appreciation for recycling and making my own entertainment. But now after all these years of creating, remaking and designing it’s given me a great appreciation for using materials I already have to make things I need. I sew, crochet, design and usually do it with something vintage and thrifted and the best thing is I’ve found lots of great friends around me that are crazy talented. So that’s why opening up «Make Good» makes so much sense. It’s a place where local artists can sell their handmade wonders with me and help share the good.
