Welcome 2010!

Well, we here at the store have finally recuperated from an amazing holiday season. We were exhausted but so happy with the support the store received throughout December. We had a record number of families place gently used items here for consignment. And we had an overwhelming response from parents purchasing these items. We could hardly keep gently used on the shelves.

So, for those of you who have been thinking of bringing in your gently used Waldorf-inspired toys and gifts, please don’t wait.  Our shelves are waiting for more of your treasures.  And there are most certainly some children eager to give your old treasures a new home.

Please call Store Manager Yvonne Cseko to arrange a convenient time to drop off your items.  Or, stop by and pick up a consignment form.  You can fill it out at home to speed the drop off process.  Yvonne can be reached at:  store@portlandwaldorfschool.org or 503-654-2200 xt. 208.
