HOLIDAY ORNAMENT POP-UP SHOP 2026

Applications are open for our Holiday Ornament Pop-Up Shop! Local makers are invited to design and produce holiday ornaments that we sell on their behalf here at the distillery in November and December — 100% of sales go to the artist themselves. We're just here to boost local art and spread holiday cheer!

ABOUT THE POP-UP

🔺 When applying, you'll need to upload a sketch, photo, or rendering of your ornament, and answer some quick questions about yourself and your ornament design.

🔺 Deadline to apply is Friday, Oct. 9

🔺 For themes, think: cocktails, spirits, distilling, cardinals, Cardinal Spirits, Bloomington.

🔺 Our logo, fonts, colors, and brand guidelines are available here at this link, if needed.

🔺 100% of sales go to the artists themselves. Artists suggest the quantity and price of their ornaments. If your design is accepted, Cardinal Spirits may request material or design modifications — we can hash that out together.

🔺 Ornaments are sold on consignment, meaning that artists are paid as their ornaments sell. Cardinal does not purchase ornaments up front. Unsold ornaments will be returned to the artists in January.

🔺 Forward this to a talented pal and help us spread the word!
