Our friends with OLO fragrance & Nice Work asked us to participate in their pop-up shop over Thanksgiving weekend, OPEN FOR BUSINESS. We were thrilled to have our cards and art prints in this finely curated event! Soon enough, I was happily on a plane to Portland to experience OFB in person.

happy shoppers

Portland was my home for 5 years, so I jumped at the opportunity to revisit and extend the Hammerpress love in Oregon. I also visited some of my favorite shops that carry our cards, like Cargo, Lark Press & Powell’s Books.


Powell's Books


Snow-covered Mt Hood looms in the city’s distance on a clear day.


Dinner at Olympic Provisions with deliciously briny, fresh Washington oysters.


Beautifully designed coffee shops are practically everywhere in Portland, but Coava Coffee Roasters was especially lovely.


A visit to Portland would not be complete without a drive to Crown Point, which overlooks the Columbia River Gorge (below).


And a rainy day favorite, Por Que No? Taqueria.

Thank you Portland for your amazing restaurants, fir-scented air & inspiring shops (School House Electric!) Couldn’t be happier we were asked to be part of the incredible selection of artists for OPEN FOR BUSINESS.
