Father's Day is coming up and we definitely have you covered in the card department with lots of different ways to say "thanks" to pop. 🏼⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
It's all in the details (like the delicate stacking of a few sweet rings with gold and brass finishes). And it doesn't end there. The jewelry collection at the shop has a little bit of everything: precious stones and metals, hand-made pieces, vintage finds, locally-made jewels and designs by small and women-run businesses. It's basically a modern-day treasure chest.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
Is it the weekend yet? We're ready for some cozy vibes and a slow morning (with coffee) in bed. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
All decked out for the week with shop gems and fancy fingers. DM us to inquire about the ring styles shown. | PS: polish is by our favorite, @basecoatnailsalon in the "terra" color.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
We're bursting at the seams with a new shipment of Berg's terracotta pots. We adore the clean and elegant styles, and that they come with drainage holes and saucers. We also love working with a family-run company that has been perfecting its process for more than 75 years. It certainly shows!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
June is on the horizon! That means summer solstice is around the corner and we're planning a little somethin' special with @shopsesen to celebrate with this community. Keep an eye out for a very exciting announcement about what's in store in June.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀

Don't forget your beachy necessities if you're coast-bound for the long weekend. We've got cooling mists, moisturizing balms and soothing serums to quell sun-drenched skin.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
Current Mood. Loving the layer-ability of these pieces by @arcosjewelry.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
The long weekend has arrived! We're open regular shop hours so swing by for your plant fix. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #interiorrewilding⠀
We just got a whole new batch of pots in the shop including some old favorites that sold out right away, as well as fresh additions we're already falling for. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
| Things We Love | You know our shop team has a penchant for carrying products with ethically-sourced ingredients. That's why @smokeperfume is one of our go-tos. Our shop manager Jess loves the Neon Heart fragrance for its smoky and earthy scent that finishes with a hint of sweetness. Plus it sticks with you all day. This natural fragrance and two others are available in store now.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #bespokescent⠀ ⠀
These handmade, hand-painted planters by @ebenotticeramics are making our little succulents shine.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
Speaking of Good Karma, did you know @happyspritz donates a portion of proceeds to animal rescue and welfare efforts? We love carrying products that have heart and soul, and these sprays fit the bill. Not only are they plant-based and vegan, but the packaging is recyclable and there's nothing artificial about the ingredients (100% free of alcohol, parabens, chemicals, synthetic preservatives, SLS, phthalates, artificial colors, dyes, ingredients and fillers). And, of course, Happy Spritz is cruelty free, which means no animal testing ever. That's a whole lotta good karma, if you ask us. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀

If right now you're thinking we've got an obsession with @acanthusjewelry, you might be right. This ring is named Sands of Time and is begging for a poetic person to give it a forever home.⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀

We're expanding our plant section! Not only will there be more of the plants you already love, but now you can expect to find some larger tropicals, like palm varieties, fiddle leaf figs and lush philodendrons. These more mature plants will be at least a few feet tall and are awesome options for a room with some height!⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #interiorrewilding⁣
Got Mother's Day-weekend plans? On Saturday, May 11 from 1-4 pm we're having a special, plant-powered pop-up with @mypoppyandfinch.

Next you'll select a planter made from recycled materials and decorate with rocks or moss, and an ornamental botanical companion, like a bird, butterfly or ladybug. These sweet mini-habitats make great gifts for mom (and our local pollinators!). No advance sign-up necessary.

Wowowow, these brass earrings. If you need a statement piece with a modern touch we've got you covered. In the shop: this set and more gorgeous work by @arcosjewelry whose handmade pieces are influenced by ancient relics, modernism, abstract nature, mystery and all things ceremonial. We're very, very down with that.⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣
Did you know we offer a potting service at the shop? It's a great option for those of you buying gifts on the go without the time to pot your plant. Or maybe you're scooping a new plant + pot combo for yourself but want to skip buying a whole bag of soil (or bypass digging in the dirt). From 2" pots up to our 8" pot options, we've got you covered. Let us know if you want to add the service to your bill when you're checking out and we'll take care of the rest.⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #interiorrewilding⁣

Earth Day is next Monday and we're celebrating with a very special pop-up at the shop. Poppy & Finch, a local plant studio specializing in living habitats will be here from 11-6 with her truly unique living centerpieces. She also knows a whole lot about native plants, how they support pollinators, local birds and insects.

| Things We Love | Our little shop team is pretty particular about skin care. Exhibit A: Jess and Katlyn swear by the @littlebarnapothecary products on our apothecary shelf for their extra-sensitive skin. A little bit of the Charcoal + Aloe Face Wash goes a long way and isn't drying like similar products. They also love the Blue Yarrow & Geranium Cleansing Oil, but for different reasons. Jess uses it as a makeup remover while Katlyn applies it in the shower to lock in moisture for hydrated skin all day long. We've got more tips and tricks when it comes to our skincare goods, just ask and you shall receive all our self-care secrets. 🏻‍♀️🏻⁣ ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣
Have you signed up for our Houseplant Basics workshop yet? We've got a couple seats left for Friday night's herbal mocktail hour dedicated to plant education. Join us from 6:30-8:00 PM to learn how to pick the right plant for your space, potting basics and plant care essentials. You'll leave with a newly-potted plant and a whole lot of botanical knowledge.

| Things We Love | This team can't get enough lip hydration, and we all have our own go-tos. Our fearless leader Keiran loves the @urbapothecary Basil Mint Lip Balm beacuse "it smells like a fresh herb garden and putting it on feels like drinking a big glass of water when you're thirsty." Shop manager Jess loves Urb's Lip & Cheek tint, "with just a little bit of tint that makes me feel instantly more put together and a subtle rose flavor that I love." Katlyn, on the other hand, loves the @kore.herbal Vanilla Ginger lip balm because "it has clean ingredients you can pronounce and is made right here in Portland." It's safe to say you can't go wrong with any of these options. Also safe to say we take lip hydration very seriously around here.⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣
