Driftwood Consignment, Seattle






After being shot up to the top of the Space Needle, riding the Monorail and crossing over the skybridge of Macy’s we climbed down 6 flights of stairs through a parking garage and were heading back to our hotel and I spotted this consignment shop. Driftwood Consignment in Seattle is a gem. It is not over stocked nor is it over priced. They have great designer labels and all of the garments were in next to new, if not off-the-rack condition. I scored an awesome Brooks Brothers sweater for $18. (It also helps to be an Oregon resident since you are exempt from Washington’s sales tax).
Upon purchasing my new sweater I spoke with Adam, who owns and operates the shop with his wife Natalie, and discovered that the store has two locations: Madrona and downtown. Unfortunately we were homeward bound the next morning so we didn’t have enough time to pop over to the Madrona location (which I am told has even more inventory to fawn over).
If you find yourself up in the Seattle area Driftwood Consignment needs to be added to your to do list.
