One of Portland's home decor/gift stores, you'll find a lot of unique crafted concoctions such as their hand-made pillows, socks, baby unis, gift mugs, books, and other interesting collectibles. We bought a couple stickers here to commerorate our time visiting Portland. My girlfriend also bought a children's forest book for her nephew who enjoyed it. He mentioned he wants to visit Portland with us next time and I concur. Worth a visit due to the unique items, cleanliness, and welcoming vibes. Keeping Portland weird, yet interesting!

They carry up to 3x in store, and provide alterations on the spot. Brands include Emily & Fin, Trashy Diva, Loco Lindo, Unique Vintage, and lots of smaller brands I've never heard of, including a house brand. Prices range around $130 for dresses, less for skirts and tops. Excellent sale rack. This is such a find. The best part was how patient the staff person was with my 5- year old as he insisted on trying on petticoats and prancing around the store. I felt welcomed, affirmed, and overwhelmed by the gorgeousness in this shop. Definitely recommend.

We are sleeping comfortably and soundly on a new certified organic Savvy (Serenity style)…read moremattress. The mattress is a 3-layer, 3 inches thick latex. Each layer has 9 thickness options (soft to firm), that can be split on each side of the bed for each sleeper's preference. The sturdy organic cotton casing has organic wool batting quilted inside. Why buy an organic mattress? Think of it like this. Organic vegetables are healthier because they don't have chemical pesticide residues. Likewise, organic mattresses do not have all the chemicals that run-of-the-mill mattresses are made of, like toxic flame retardants and phthalates. These chemicals out-gas. So why breathe any toxins that may effect your health? Why sleep on a bed of toxic chemicals? I digress! Now to Dennis and Plank and Coil. My wife and I made probably 3 trips in to the store to test drive a store full of organic mattresses. Naturepedic, Organipedic, Savvy rest, Palm Spring, Vispring are some varieties to try. How to test drive a mattress? Lay on several and compare. Dennis is the Driver's Ed mattress instructor with knowledge and patience to help you compare the choices. It is important to lay about 15 minutes on any mattress that your are considering to see how your spine, hips, limbs, neck and booty feel and fit the mattress. Is there sink or sag? Do you float cloud like or roll around like a jelly fish? Any limbs go numb? And relaxing those 15 minutes on the mattress, perhaps, you doze off or snooze a bit. That clinched the deal for me! Plank and Coil - is the way to sleep nirvana on an organic mattress! Also, the delivery team are mattress experts. They help with the set-up and positioning of the new mattress, pads, toppers, core and all accessories and ensure your bed frame has the right support for the mattress. In our case they recommended additional wood slats between the welded steel slats on our Room & Board frame. So there you have it! We spend about 1/3 of the time in the bed. Why not get the best and healthiest rest? I believe that is an organic mattress. We love how we sleep now! My mind is resting knowing "NO TOXINS IN BED WTIH ME!" Plank & Coil selections and expertise, no sales pressure, made the choice for us easy-peazy! All mattresses have warranties and return policies to check out! I recommend check out Plank & Coil!

The store had quite a few customers which tells me the selection, service and value were top notch. I can't wait to bring my family to the store so they can make a terrarium for themselves.

There are elegant linens in all shades of neutral (white, cream, gray) with pillows and throws in pops of color or texture neutrals. The guest towels are just charming! Seasonally they change; silver reindeer; pastel bunnies; yellow tulips - a great way to recognize the various holidays with a simple touch. Lots of small home decor items that are carefully selected, simple, yet one of a kind. Trays for your trinkets in a textured sand pattern or subtle animal print. Tissue box covers that transform that cardboard box into part of your decor. Wonderful scented candles. My favorite area is the jewelry. I can't stop by the Manor without checking out the treasures, many from local artists, and definitely pieces that are not mainstream. Service is exceptional; if you are the type that want hands on assistance as you select items to refresh your bathroom or replace your bedding, they happily oblige. Or if you are like me and want to wander on your own and take it all in, preferring to seek assistance only if needed, they let you be. Definitely on the expensive side, but the quality is equally high. They always have an area with sale items, especially after Christmas, so make sure to check it out for fantastic deals.

To say I'm angry is an understatement. I have spent a significant amount of money on their website,…read moreI have been a loyal customer, and have provided them with plenty of earned media (free content on social platforms) . I purchased a dining table in early December and after check out, realized I was charged tax on the shipping cost for this large item which was near nearly $500 on its own. I have been asking via email if it is typical to apply this practice since it has never happened on any other purchase, and shipping is not a tangible good. I have sent multiple follow up emails to their support team and have received no response. Today I come here to write this review and realized from other folks that had I purchased this item from Instagram I would not have been charged the shipping at all and I'm now even angrier that this appears to be what I would consider unprofessional and deceptive practices. A much bigger concern than the non-response of emails. I attempted to buy the table on IG and sure enough no shipping charge. Because the item that I purchased was considered nonrefundable, I now think I'm going to have to dispute the entire charge with my credit card company and reject the delivery unless they are willing to refund my shipping cost which considering the lack of emails, is highly unlikely. I'm greatly disappointed and have found that their business practices have become questionable since they were acquired by Food 52. What used to be a locally owned and operated business with principles and ethics that reflected that kind of organization have now gone off the rails, and I just can't see continuing to support them any longer if this is not made right.

Even if the color is wrong. Even if the product can't physically be delivered. Even if the mistake isn't yours. We purchased two couches from this Joybird store. At no point during the sales process were we told that the orders were non-returnable. When the couches arrived, one of them did not match the fabric swatch we were shown in the store. The other one never even made it into our home--the delivery team could not get it up the stairs. When we reached out to Joybird, they refused to accept a return, refused a refund, and refused to take responsibility--on either couch. Instead, they pointed us to fine print on their website about their company policies. It would be one thing if: - The sales associate had clearly explained that all orders were final. - We were pointed to explicit fine print before purchasing. - The product delivered actually matched what we were shown. But none of that happened. There are many other furniture companies that treat customers far better and stand behind what they sell. I strongly recommend choosing one of them instead.

The space is very appealing to the senses. Great vibes. I was disappointed that I was unable to view dining room sets in person but I will say I learned most places we visited that day had the same set up. I am thinking most likely due to space. Many pieces of furniture but lacking DR sets to view in person. We sat in a few chairs and found a favorite one. We didn't pull the trigger until we looked around other places just in case we found a matching set elsewhere. Welp, we came back full circle to the most comfortable chairs we sat in that day. We communicated via text to complete the sale and picked up our chairs not too long afterwards. Very pleased with selection, communication, quality and style. Store space is filled with beautiful quality furniture. Check them out!
