Female looking for a long term unfurnished rental property in Manzanita, Nehalem or Wheeler.
1 bedroom is good, 2 bedroom – fabulous, 1 bath, a garage would be awesome.
The rental property where I currently reside is to renovated by new owners starting December 31st, 2022. I have been fortunate to have had this current rental for a period of nearly 13 years.
Any leads which could be shared with me would be much appreciated. Thank you.
The upper end of my affordability is $1300 per month.
Please text first before calling, as unknown numbers go straight to voicemail. Email is also fine.

ELLIS CONKLIN: ACTOR
Ellis made his stage debut this past October in the Riverbend Players production of DRACULA. It was his first theatrical experience, if you don’t count his many years as a newspaper journalist, which requires a certain amount of acting savvy. Ellis lives in Manzanita with his wife Lynn Steinberg and their dog Piper. When he’s not acting or writing for the Hoffman Center, he is rooting for his beloved San Francisco Giants.

The Hope Chest began in 1998 and is a 501C3. We are thankful for the continued community support, because without you we wouldn’t be able to give back to the community to the extent that we do. It all comes full circle – you donate to the shop, our volunteer team sorts and prepares items to be sold, we resell your donations, and give the proceeds back to local community organizations. This cycle keeps usable items out of the landfill and in turn provides the community with affordably priced clothing and household items to buy through the shop.
The NEHALEM store is open Wednesday – Saturday 12:00-4:00 pm and accepts donations Wednesday – Friday only. The ROCKAWAY store is open Thursday – Saturday 10:00-4:00 pm and accepts donations Friday and Saturday only.
A *friendly reminder* to bring all holiday decoration donations in PRIOR to the holiday. This goes for every holiday, but especially Christmas as these decorations are our largest of the holiday donations. With the Nehalem store relocating sometime in the future, we do not plan to move Christmas decorations with us to our new location since available storage space is unknown.
Please note that the Nehalem location is still OPEN and accepting donations and will continue to remain open until the property sells. Any updates to our new location will be posted here on the BBQ and our Facebook page.
In December 2022, we look forward to celebrating our achievement of giving *Two Million dollars* back to our local community. These monies are donated to various organizations in our local area, such as North County Food Bank, Meals For Seniors, Hospice, Faith in Action and several more. This is only possible because of our community, volunteers, and those who shop with us. THANK YOU!!
Please remember that YOUR Hope Chest needs YOUR help finding a new home! Contact DeeAnn Grimes, our store manager, at 503-858-2092 with any leads.
Happy Holidays and thank you for your continuing support and in your efforts for finding us a new home. As always, we look forward to seeing you in the shop and accepting more of your donations!
Remember to shop local this holiday season. In supporting local small businesses we support each other and our shared community.

) are going to be making small fleece blankets for our local cat rescue, The United Paws. Does anyone have any spare fleece fabric that they are able to donate to us? The United Paws likes to provide these to the cats after they have their spay or neuter surgeries and also to send home when they are newly adopted. Thank you all so much in advance. 
Leading this celebration are two inspirational weavers of art and magic.
Iris Sullivan Daire of Dreambird Studios in Astoria
Adria Badagnani of Art & Channel in Manzanita.
Iris begins the day by leading a Solstice natural dye class using the stored sunlight of dried summer flowers to infuse bright golden rays onto cotton cloth.
If you have never tried your hand at turning garden flowers to fabric pigment you will be delighted to learn the magic of this process! These golden dyed cloths can then be stitched into gift bags, altar cloths or bandanas to keep or give as gifts.
Following your natural dye class you are invited to bask in the luxurious warmth of our wood fired sauna. Perfect medicine for cold winter days- our riverfront sauna experience will also include a kelp mineral face mask and cold plunge (optional) to replenish dry winter skin and stimulate your immune and lymphatic system.
End your day of celebration with a Winter Solstice ritual led by Adria.
In circle we will first honor the darkness and what lies in the unknown before welcoming the light back with candle magic. With a poetic invocation of the elements, our sacred circle will open to create intentions, receive the wisdom of the darkness, and bring light into the New Year.
Sweet elemental surprises & gifts await each participant in this circle!
Our farm blended teas and snacks will be available for you to enjoy throughout the day!
There are only 7 spaces remaining for this retreat. Use the link below to reserve your spot today.
