The fall shelf, new this week

Cold air, warm things.

The first cold morning of the year always smells like something: woodsmoke down the street, wet leaves, coffee made a little stronger. When the temperature drops, we notice the season with our noses and our tongues before anything else.

So we filled a shelf for exactly that. Chocolate and hot cocoa from Moonstruck, sea salt and honey from Jacobsen on the Oregon Coast, and room sprays made by hand at Midnight Moons Outpost. All three have Portland roots, and all three make a long evening in feel like a plan.

cocoa nib, cherrywood smoke, Baltic amber, white truffle, moss on stone, salted toffee, neroli, myrrh, Oregon mint, palo santo, alfalfa honey, cassia, black pepper, orange blossom

A Little Bit Strange

Not costumes, and not cobwebs on a string. Candles that burn down over a hidden skeleton, a deck built around a wilderness that does not exist, a fortune teller four inches tall, and two very small blades.

From the workshop

Senser Woodcraft

A small studio that makes everything by hand from solid wood: six-fingered jewelry hands shaped from beech, magnetic balance stones polished from sapele until they feel like river pebbles. Three pieces we would keep on our own desk, and the whole reason we started carrying them.
