The little winter market in Portland, Oregon was this past weekend.  Created by chelsea and abby, this sweet handmade market included loads of my favourite people/bloggers/designers/creatives – herriott grace, mossière, cori kindred, to name but a few, I would have loved to have been there, no doubt I would have bought up a storm.  There is a great post about it by little ocean annie (click here), and there are more photos from the event on flickr.

    Sadly enough, we hardly have these kind of amazing markets here. It seems that market was amazing, must’ve been fun to be at.

    Oh Pia-thank you for this post!
    We were thrilled and happy about the success of the market.
    Everyone involved did their best and it felt so warm and cozy.
    It was a dream on mine come true and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.
    Thank you for sharing…someday maybe we’ll have to have one with you…;) ?
