Come on in and look around at Marky's Market your online consignment store. Here at Marky's we give you an opportunity to go back to a time when shopping was the day's entertainment. When a child could wander the isles searching for the treasure that mom promised, if you were good and behaved yourself, while she went into the bakery. The smell of fresh baked bread filled the air and a huge dill pickle could be purchased for a nickel.
Marky's online consignment store is a cooperative effort of fine artisans of Utah and Arizona. As an online consignment store we bring you unique, mostly one-of-a-kind creations.
While you are looking about in Marky's online consignment store let your mind fill with the stories our artists have given you. Each creation has the warmth and tenderness of the artist at its core. Our hand thrown and painted pottery tells its own story or maybe shares in yours.
Our photographers have captured a moment in time that touched them and tells a story. Where the light and shadow bring the depth of the image into focus and your imagination can build a story of your own. In our online consignment store, artist's originals offer a wide variety of mediums, techniques and feelings.
Our online consignment store offers quilts where every stitch can be related to a talent or childhood which honed skills and instilled in it the love of the end product. Myrna's story relates how she developed her passion for handwork.
Be sure and stop in and have a look at our hand knit or crocheted goodies. Shirley's hand felted purses are uniquely finished to give them their own personality.

Our online consignment store brings you a library of wonderful diversity. Cowboy Poet and founder of the National Cowboy Poetry Rodeo, Sam Jackson's, "Wild and Woolley", is a great read.

We also offer a selection of novels by Warren Stucki, which will give you a look at life in southern Utah. In his novel "Boys Pond," he shows you a glimpse of growing up in St. George, Utah while the atomic bomb testing was being done in our neighboring state of Nevada.
Our jewelers really get to show off their creative sides in Marky's online consignment store. Pam offers semi precious stones in her unique creations, while Tosha offers you a mixed medium of crocheted wire pieces and Shirley shows us the diversity of crocheted beaded bracelets.
