Spotlight On: Wind Wishes


Port Gamble welcomes a new business...
WIND WISHES in Port Gamble

Imagine this: Port Gamble's Camper Down Elm-- 
It's the middle of summertime and the tree's beautiful, leafy branches reach down around all sides.
Now, imagine it decorated with whimsical well wishes-- reminders of the love being shared and celebrated on your Wedding Day. These pretty paper banners flutter in the slight breeze coming up from the water. When they catch the eyes of your guests they present subtle reminders to LOVE, have JOY, embrace ROMANCE, or even hold a hand.

These wind wishes tie to anything--arbors, trees, wine bottles, wedding chairs --leaving a simple reminder to love the life you live, which is exactly the foundation of thought that went into WIND WISHES, now located here in Port Gamble!
"Master calligrapher Kaj Wyn Berry created these unique paper products in the early 1960's after reading historical accounts of asain railroad workers of the 1800's writing their wishes for a better life on strips of paper and hanging them in beach pines along the Oregon Coast.
"50 years later after 500 weddings, births, memorials and anniversaries, the demand for these simple hearfelt banners has exploded. This grass-roots tradition is ready to be shared with families throughout America."
-Gretchen Vilas, Editor of WIND WISHES blog
