Better than any expectation we could've had. Anna is one of the most wholesome people we have ever encountered and her spirit radiates into her work. She was intentional and listened to our wedding band dreams and helped turn them into a reality! The process of designing, creating, and obtaining the final product was seamless! She offered great advice and gave timely notifications throughout the process. The everlasting joy, timepieces and memories we took away will stay with us forever. We are truly grateful we had the opportunity to design our wedding bands with her and create such a personalized experience ! We recommend Nested Yellow for every and any jewelry dream you have, because she will make it come true! Thank you Anna!

I had a consultation with Anna a month ago and she seemed very nice and well suited to the task. I…read moredid not know where to source the gemstones from so we agreed that I would ask a jeweler near me and report back to her. A few days later, I emailed her. I never heard from Anna. I tried texting the number on her website and calling. I was worried something had happened to her until I saw she was still posting on instagram. I was heartbroken. This was an engagement ring I have been excited for since I was a young child. If Anna did not want to work with me, I would have appreciated an email saying so. I do not know why Anna has decided to ghost me, but it's caused a lot of stress in these already stressful times.

I found this studio on Google and called to see if I could consult for design and printing out of state. Jenn was immediately very accommodating and happy to help when I first spoke with her over the phone. She offered her time and we exchanged emails on quantity, materials, and inspiration for the suite. We iterated a few times making edits on design and text until it was just right before we finalized for production. Jenn was always quick to respond, professional and transparent about the changes we made to the design. The final product exceeded my expectations, the quality is top-notch and I'm so excited to send out my invites! I cannot recommend Jenn and the studio enough and hope to work with them again in the future!

So I decided to look around for another company and found Parklife. Travis immediately answered the phone each and every time I called. He was a little more expensive but you get what you pay for.

I received the completed invitations, and they were SO gorgeous I could cry! My husband loved them too. Travis, you have no idea what a relief it was to be able to settle on a design so quickly, as I had agonized over so many choices with other printing services who were either slow to respond or just unhelpful by not addressing my questions with the same attention and swiftness that you had. You were responsive, quick to help, and very friendly to work with -- more importantly, you were flexible in working with my budget even though I was ordering fewer than 50 invitations. Most other services require a higher minimum. There's an abundance of other lovely designs, but I just wanted to move away from modern or rustic as there's a sea of those out there that just seem all too familiar. The more you look at them, the more they feel like a Monet - not as interesting once your eyes have settled on them. I wanted to give classic design a touch of the unexpected, and my invitation just takes the cake for achieving just that. The more I look at it, the more I love it. Many of my guests complimented on how beautiful the invitation was. I am so happy that letterpress (and considerate service) is still very much alive!

What a fun time we had visiting and making our own fragrant candles at Mister OK's Essentials. We…read moreparticipated in the Yelp event to try out this Black Owned Business and turned into a fun afternoon with my husband checking out Alberta Street. We had about 12+ people in the class we attended. What I appreciated most was the overview from Precious, the owner, as she kicked off the class and understanding why she started this business. "She began in 2017 when her son was born. She realized she and her family were burning candles, but didn't like what was in the air when they were burning and the chemicals the candles were putting out into the air. From that, Mister OK's was born. " The product produced (and the one the candles you make) use high quality oils paired with a wooden wick to eliminate soot and 100% soy wax for longevity. She walked us through how to assemble the candle wick, enjoy the available fragrances and be creative in producing our own scent, and an easy process of fusing the scent with the soy wax. Once your candle was done, you were encouraged to go enjoy the local stores on Alberta and come back in about 30 minutes to pick up your product. When we came back, we spent time getting to know Precious and her story much deeper. She is truly an inspiring young woman who is an entrepreneur at heart. I would strongly recommend anyone to grab your friends, your significant other or a family member and just come out for some fun while walking away with an enjoyable product. I've been burning my candle during the day in my home office and it's made a wonderful addition and brought some relaxation to my environment. The only recommendation I have is for Precious to be more vocal and promote the product she makes and has for sale in addition to making your own candle. :-) https://www.misteroksessentials.com/

Emily answered all my tedious questions and with a lot of product readily available for my inspection, I was completely satisfied with the quality. My friend even had a bag made, which she has already received and takes absolutely everywhere to show off. Tom has always had great recommendations/ideas for gifts and we even swap favorite foodie spots whenever I pop in for another special occasion. I always appreciate how down to earth and completely relatable they are and it's refreshing to be able to talk to employees who greet me like a friend and don't immediately bombard me with an overly chirpy and rehearsed list of sales. Thank you, guys, for being the best! Sam approved

We needed a bouquet to lay on a casket and wanted something lively and beautiful. Staci went above and beyond to make sure we received something elegant and timed the pickup outside of her normal schedule to help us out through a difficult week. Staci put so much of herself into it and everyone who saw it that day remarked on how beautiful it was. It was an integral piece of a sad but beautiful day of remembrance. I'm forever grateful. The bouquet was thoughtfully arranged to lie on the casket in the morning. We then took it home and had it in a vase during an at home memorial, then split it into 2 and returned 1 bouquet to the graveside the next day. It looked beautiful through every stage.

What pottery is worth carrying back to Hawaii?…read more My mom picked out a color scheme for her kitchen based on one of her favorite pottery pieces. Prior to us all visiting Oregon this June it mysteriously got destroyed (We won't name names here). Fortunately while visiting the "Made in Oregon" store and wandering around Saturday Market she discovered the works of Nick Molatore. He had a whole line of pottery featuring just the right colors. My rents and lil bro carried back an entire set, and even gifted us a beautiful tray (which we ended up bringing back to Portland with us...so glad we moved here). What makes FarPoint's pottery special is it's high firing. This extreme heat process produces a durable product that also being lead free is microwave and dishwasher safe. His designs range from pretty pedestrian to just plain pretty. Anyway, our piece has so far survived traveling to Hawaii and back, we'll see how long it survives us. :)
