Short Wave

I've collected so many treats, cards, pieces of affordable handmade jewelry, and other little tokens of love and appreciation. Come see what's new and show someone a little love. 💗 Open Thursday-Tuesday. 11-6 every day except 11-4 on Sunday. Online 24/7.

Short Wave is open today and I will be donating 50% of all sales from today to @pirc_oregon the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition. That means I will not profit off of any sales today, but PIRC will get half of every dollar you spend here. Cash strongly encouraged! Every day, but today especially.

Heads up! Shop will be closed NYE, New Year's Day, and Friday the 2nd. We will then be open for the first 2 weekends in January, but closed Mon-Thu for the first two weeks of the new year. Hours are back to our normal 6 days a week starting on Friday 1/16. Happy New Year!

Year end sale! Take 40% - 60% off select items to help me start the new year fresh! Find deep discounts on clothing, home goods, stationery, personal care and holiday items. Now through the end of the year, in-store and online. Also, a reminder that the shop is closed on NYE and New Year's Day. 🪩 🥂

We're open today from 11-6 and tomorrow from 11-2ish for all you last minute shoppers. Tomorrow, I'll have free hot tea, cookies, and obscure Xmas tunes to fuel you through your final stretch of holiday shopping. 🎄🎁

Open daily until Xmas. Open 11-2ish on Xmas Eve, too! Come say hi and let us help you pick out the perfect gift. 🎄💚

Quality Over Quantity - People Over Profit

Get lost in the Garden print. PO-EM's Garden Deck Pants are the perfect pants for summer. Light, breezy, easy and relaxed in the hips and ankle length. PO-EM clothes are truly special: patterns designed by Carla hand block printed on hand loomed fabric. Keeping craft alive. ❤️

I recently got in a big shipment from Bürstenhaus Redecker, who have been making traditional wood and natural fiber brushes in Germany for over 75 years. This is the last restock I'm getting for the foreseeable future, so get them while you can!

Welcome Valley House to the shop! Kelli carves and sews functional goods for your home and travel pack in Montana. Nothing goes to waste. She uses scraps, lots of scraps, and turns them into small handmade treasures. I especially love the scrap pencil pouches and wallets.

New in the shop! 📚 3 titles from Ultraviolet Books, a small poetry press run by Rachel Corry of Rachel Sees Snail Shoes.

In the shop and online. They pair well with these wave mugs from local potter Al Be Pottery.

Lots of new things are popping up around the shop this spring. 🌱 Open 11-6 Thurs-Mon, 11-4 on Sunday. See you soon. 💚

Some new spring-themed gift boxes are available in the shop and online just in time for Mother's Day! Filled with everything a person needs to unwind and treat themselves. 💚

Happy Earth Day! In honor of my favorite holiday, I'll be donating 10% of sales on Saturday 4/26 to the North Coast Land Conservancy. @nclctrust has lots of volunteer and educational events throughout the year if you want to get involved.
