I love shopping at The Button Emporium
here in Portland. They have the best selection in town and they also
have The Ribbon Lady. She knows everything there is to know about
satins, moires, silk, grosgrain..you name it. She also has this
marvelous way of wrapping the ribbon in a figure 8 so it stays
perfectly pressed in the cellophane bag she gives you. She used to work
at Daisy Kingdom and when they closed down she moved to The Button
Emporium along with a lot of their ribbons. I can’t tell you how many
wedding ribbons she’s helped me pick out. She’s magic! [image from flickr, thistletown]
That is a GREAT place.
I went to St. Mary’s for high school (just during a short, for years in PDX) and would walk there.
Love, love, love all that selection!
i wish I had a ribbon lady where I live…
