A new option to buy smart this holiday season

Join the first annual Crackedpots Holiday Shop at Lloyd Center Mall as part of the mall’s Lloyd Local campaign this winter.

Known for its makers and craft scene, Portland is a nationwide leader in waste reduction and salvage. Combining these into an alternative approach to the holidays, the Crackedpots Holiday Shop encourages shoppers to reconsider the disposable nature of the season with thoughtful alternative gifts made from upcycled materials. All objects are made of at least 80% reused, reclaimed or recycled materials. Educational displays will be featured along with project ideas and inspiration for holiday reuse.

Crackedpots Holiday Shop features fine art and craft by 40 local artists that utilize and upcycle waste materials. Artwork in a variety of media will be for sale including: metal, glass, textiles, jewelry, assemblage, wood and collage.

The shop will be open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, November 30th-December 2nd and December 7th-9th during regular mall hours.
