AR Toys
Alejandro Ramos
I sell toys, collectibles, and all kinds of family-friendly treasures
I love the art of being a vendor, something I did a lot in Mexico City. In 2022 Coalición Fortaleza opened the door for me to bring my passion back to life. Thanks to them, I jumped into El Mercadito—and I haven’t missed one since! Each event lets me share joy, nostalgia, and cool finds with the community I love.
Follow me on Instagram @artoysoregon or find me at the next El Mercadito! 🎉🧸✨

Bloomed by Deya
Segura Reyes
Bloomed by Deya was inspired by my mom—my biggest supporter and the first person who encouraged me to explore floral design after a disappointing flower order. What began as a simple gesture of love for her has grown into a true passion that I now share with my community.
As part of the Latinx community, I value the connection and trust I build with clients who relate to my cultural background. My goals are to continue growing from home, open my own floral shop in the coming years, and eventually become a wholesale vendor offering high-quality Ecuadorian roses to local florists and families.
Bloomed by Deya is rooted in love, culture, and the joy of creating beautiful floral gifts.
