I Love Portland Homes

While on an errand last week I finally stumbled upon elsa + sam, a fabulous dishware boutique on SE Hawthorne. I’ve always intended to check it out, but was afraid of my willpower…you see, I’m such a dishware lover that I’ve been cut off from bringing home any more dishes! Imagine my delight at discovering the Neighborhood series by Dovetail Shop & Studio, a duo of ceramic artists in Colorado. (I may have to sneak a purchase of that mug – maybe I could just use it in the office.)   I just love the hand drawn buildings and the contrast of the black on shiny white. Anyway, while I may not be allowed to stock my cupboards with all of the fantastic creations at elsa + sam, I will most certainly keep them in mind the next time I’m shopping for a gift!
