Buy Olympia store opening in Portland

buyolympia.com started back in 1999 - the early days of the rise in the handmade D.I.Y. art, craft and design movement. They have been an inspiration for us here at Bluebottle and have also stocked Matthew's gear for several years. Well, we are happy to annouce that they have just opened their very own retail venue in Portland!

LAND, a retail store and art gallery on Portland’s historic Mississippi Avenue opened just last Friday.

Sasek, Puckish, Emily Ryan Lerner, Kiku, Rachel Carns and tons more.
