Decorating with Local Pride

This playful print is the perfect decorative piece for a Portland home.  You can conveniently multitask by simultaneously showing your local pride and love of pork!

For the Home

It's so hard to find the right art to hang on your walls - it's either too hotelish, too whimsical, too dark, too something! This chicken, pig and sad bear can call my place home anytime they like. I'm still forming an opinion on the garden gnom, he's a little creepy but I just can't look away. Save that one for the guest room.

Dream House

I've always had a thing for houses. I just want to get inside and see what color the walls are and how the owner arranges the furniture. It isn't socially acceptable to knock on someone's door and ask for an impromptu tour, but man do I wish it was! Instead of being a peeping tom, I visit the RMLS listings and get my fill of house tours there.

Must have: porch swing

Lovely bay windows, wood trim & wood floors

Stunning countertops, molded tin ceiling, vintage 

stove & unique green granite island

Sun room with french doors

Double bedroom - love the green paint

Fireplace in the adjacent part of the bedroom

Favorite Store

A few friends visiting from Seattle and I escaped from the rain here last week. Both the guys and girls were equally transfixed by all the treasures, fun books, and oddities there were to explore. Plus they have Black Jack gum, which is awesome.
