They have items such as: antique and vintage lighting, hardware, furniture, miscellaneous architectural fixtures, and so much more. And lots of these items come from local homes and buildings, so you are helping "recycle the past" as they like to say. While moseying around the shop, I inquired about a couple of light fixtures that were out of reach and they were very friendly and helpful when following up with questions. It was not difficult to find someone to assist me at all. The prices are at a premium here because you are finding unique items that are in excellent condition and often times hard to find. I found a 8pc set of drawer pulls that I was hunting for an antique dresser for years. Patience and luck came together for me at Old Portland Hardware. Looking forward to my next visit!

This stuff is pricey as heck, but it stands the test of time, so maybe it's a good deal in the end. It's nice to support the history and legacy of Oregon.

When people think of the PNW, the history of the Oregon Trail often comes to mind. Pendleton…read morerepresents this time in our history with high quality wool blankets and clothing of beautiful, rustic prints, most in warm colors and patterns of various landscapes. The desert, mountains, forests and coast of the west and PNW are expertly weaved in. The blankets are heirlooms, classic in design and made to last for generations. And they are warm! I have one and even on the coldest night, it keeps me toasty! The wool is soft, not scratchy like some wool items can be. Having one of their coverlets or blankets on your bed will transform your room. Literally. Their clothing, for men, women and children is just as exceptional. The coats, jackets, capes and sweaters are so warm, in addition to being comfortable and beautiful. I'm considering purchasing a cape to keep me warm on my daily walks. The weight is perfect plus it allows for free arm movement. To adorn your home there are rugs in a variety of sizes from small doormats to full area rugs. They make bath towels, throw blankets, and pillows; they have an ever expanding collection of prints which immediately shout Pendleton. So many patterns to choose from! Most are muted colors on a neutral background. Aztec, jacquard, plaid, stripes, heritage, rustic. Some with prairie scenes, the Northern lights, mountains, eagles, elk and other animals and landscapes found in the west. Each is truly a work of art! If you love the prints but want something smaller, they have coffee mugs, water bottles, canteens, baseball caps, wallets, totes, handbags, backpacks, and even masks with their signature prints. They make fantastic gifts that people love to receive. This store, on SE McLoughlin is massive with all the regular premade merchandise plus rows of fabrics. And an area where they sell remnants by the pound and yarn. Of course depending on what you are looking for, it's hit or miss but there was a large selection. While I don't sew, I am considering buying a 2 yard remnant and paying someone to sew a hem so I can use as a throw for my bed. The colors and pattern is so beautiful that I can't stop thinking about it and know it will instantly transform my room. Prices are definitely on the higher side and some specific items actually made me gasp out loud! But you are paying for the brand, legacy and quality. Even though I was in the store for a significant amount of time, I was never acknowledged or greeted. While this usually doesn't bother me because I'm very independent and prefer to browse on my own, but because the store was so large and I was the only one there, having no acknowledgement of my presence felt cold and uninviting. For those interested in the history, Pendleton is an Oregon icon dating all the way back to 1863 when Thomas Lister Kay, an Englishman and weaver by trade, made the cross country journey to the PNW and began working in Oregon's woolen mills. He then opened a wool mill in Salem, OR. The blankets and clothing were not only practical, they became the standards of trade and ceremonial use. In 1909 his descendants took over the defunct Pendleton Wool Mill in Pendleton, OR, and Pendleton remains a private business run by descendants of Thomas Kay to this day. Pretty remarkable. John Bishop, the great-great-grandson of Thomas Kay, is president and CEO; and great-great-grandson Peter Bishop is the Executive VP of Merchandising and Design. Pendleton operates seven facilities and 41 retail stores that sell products throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, Europe, Japan, and Korea. The company headquarters are in Portland, Oregon, and the fabrics and blankets are still woven in PNW mills. So while visiting Oregon, bring home a  piece of history that is beautiful and practical! And for those locals like me, having a touch of Oregon history accenting your home is a nice touch.

As I was telling my husband "Hey! I know who owns this place!" Stephanie (the owner) was busy telling her coworker "Hey! I know that woman!" Happy reunion ensued, followed by amazed perusal... honestly, I was astonished by the array of beautifully-showcased, high-quality, candy-like local artists' works tempting me from every corner. And she put it together in only a few months...! There were art-glass bowls and vases and jewelry, watercolor paintings and print cards, fabric arts fashion accoutrements and wall-hangings, crazy and humorous and "why-didn't-I-think-of-that" useful home decor, and all in a cute little renovated Victorian... must go back when I have a tshatshke/goodie budget. Really reasonable prices, too, especially given the quality of the merchandise and the trendiness of the area...

This is an adorable new boutique with a collection of higher end home decor and gift items. A small collection of wares that fits into my personal category of retro glam. Tilde, in neighboring Sellwood, is the closest compare, and I tend to favor their more Portland-centric vibe. But, I always enjoy seeing new life breathed into this historic area. [1] For the record, my favorite pronunciation is by Alice Cooper in Wayne's World. Wayne Campbell: So, do you come to Milwaukee often? Alice Cooper: Well, I'm a regular visitor here, but Milwaukee has certainly had its share of visitors. The French missionaries and explorers were coming here as early as the late 1600s to trade with the Native Americans. Pete: In fact, isn't "Milwaukee" an Indian name? Alice Cooper: Yes, Pete, it is. Actually, it's pronounced "mill-e-wah-que" which is Algonquin for "the good land." Wayne Campbell: I was not aware of that.
