Ellen and Marks Garden Studio was immaculate, light-filled, charming, centrally located and walking distance to many ammenities. The Sellwood neighborhood is home to many of Portland's best vintage and antique stores. I would recommend a trip to Stars Antique Mall for vintage. Tilde for beautiful, modern, cards, notebooks, jewerly and art. Either/Or and Grand Central Bakery for coffee and breakfast. New Seasons market is right around the corner for groceries. Take a trip to 12 x 16 Gallery for inspiration and then head over to Collage for specialty art and craft supplies. Great neighborhood and setting!
