Curiosities

A Vintage Mall By Dennis McNabb, Active Media Contributing Writer Photos By Craig Brubaker

ttention all shoppers seeking items of whimsy; all collectors looking for things that are antique, unique, vintage, and fantastical - there’s a new mall on Main Street in downtown Tigard that is destined to become your favorite spot to spend an afternoon. Curious about the name? What a coincidence! It is, in fact, called Curiosities: A Vintage Mall.

It was just in 2019 that he moved the mall to the current location in Tigard, and Travis couldn’t be happier with the change. The new space is a big upgrade, giving them an extra 4,000 square feet of space, and they’ve also gained a dedicated parking lot. They’ve grown from featuring 20 vendors back in the earliest stages, to now hosting over 60 dealers (plus a huge waiting list of alternates looking to get in on the excitement when spaces become available). Travis absolutely loves what he does and it shows. As he explains it, they have an eclectic mix of dealers and products with “as broad a range as the decades they serve.” His vision was to provide a place where people can take a walk down memory lane, purchase nostalgic items they have a personal connection to, and present it all in a neat, clean, and bright environment.

Travis Diskin is the owner and founder of Curiosities. With a background in brand marketing, merchandising, and retail, he decided to quit a job in corporate America, and use his considerable accumulated knowledge to build something of his own; something that would incorporate both his expertise and his passion for vintage collectibles. He rented a small space in a mall (similar to the one he now runs) where he began selling vintage comics, toys, and action figures. Things went so well and he enjoyed the work so much, that when that mall closed, he made the decision to start one of his own. In 2013, he did just that, opening a smaller version of the mall on TV Highway in Beaverton. Business boomed there, but space was very limited and the city ultimately sold the property that the building was on for new construction.

That’s exactly what he has accomplished. He keeps a tight rein on his dealers, but they appreciate the structure and the booming business they do reflects it. Especially during COVID, Travis has found that what he does is “less about retail, and more about recreation.” People need that little escape and why not do it in a clean, safe environment where they can find fun trinkets and collectibles? Vintage items have the capacity to transport us to another time. An old record album, a classic movie poster, a toy that your grandparent played with growing up - these things put us in a different frame of mind. For those who lived during that time, it’s a journey of nostalgia. For those younger folks who were not there, it’s a connection to the past; to previous generations and the zeitgeists that defined the era. Either way, a day spent browsing a vintage mall is a day well spent, so come on in and support a fantastic local business. The selection is always changing, so visit regularly to make sure you don’t miss out on something awesome! Curiosities is located at 12550 SW Main Street, in Tigard. The mall is open daily from 10am to 6pm. Visit curiositiesvintage.com for more information.

Open Daily 10am - 7pm

PAINTING PERFECTION, ONE HOME AT A TIME! JACKSON PAINTING & REMODEL

By Dennis McNabb, Actuve Media Contributing Writer

et’s face it Oregonians, the local weather is not kind to our houses. Constant moisture and cold temperatures during the winter months juxtaposed against hot, arid, sometimes drought-like conditions in the summer months leads to expansion and contraction of materials, compromised joints and seals, moss invasion, mold, cracked and dulled paint, and more. It’s a continuous battle for most of us to stay on top of it, and it’s too much to handle ourselves. Fortunately, we have experts who are adept at not only recognizing the root causes, but also at fixing those problems in the most efficient and cost effective ways. Among those experts, there is no one better than Jackson Painting!

Owner and operator Chad Jackson has been painting houses since 1990. Still a kid living at home at that time, he got started when his parents decided to have their home painted. Chad got to talking with the gentleman who came to do the job, and was subsequently invited to team up with him for a summer job. He returned the following year, but Chad’s entrepreneurial spirit begged for more. He’d always wanted to own his own business. So, in 1992, while still in high school, he very bravely stepped out on his own, and Jackson Painting was founded.

10 To Advertise With Us, Call 503.825.2111

Although initially, he wasn’t certain it would be his life-long career, he discovered soon enough how much he appreciated working outdoors. He was already adept at the labor end of the equation; enamored with the instant gratification he received from a job well done, but he was also discovering how much he enjoyed working with people—his team and his clients—to help them beautify their homes. So, in 1996, the decision was made. He began hiring a crew, many who remain to this day, and he’s never looked back! So why choose Chad and his team for your job? Quite simply, they are 100% dedicated to doing the best job possible, using the highest quality materials (only Sherwin Williams paint is good enough for this crew) and providing the best service around, every time! Again, most of the crew has been with him over 20 years, which is almost unheard of in this industry. Chad simply does things the right way though, so his guys have no reason to leave. All combined, they have over 350 years of experience. And they don’t subcontract! When you hire Jackson Painting, you get Chad Jackson and his crew on the job, not some stranger, meaning quality control is never an issue. They provide local residents with exceptional interior and exterior painting services, but additionally they are a one-stop shop for your home interior and/or exterior beautification project. Meaning that if during the course of performing their free estimate for your project they find dry rot, sections of siding that need repairs, or other issues that could negatively affect the job they’re doing for you, they also have the ability to do those repairs so you don’t have to shop around for other contractors. Residential home remodeling projects, small to mid-size commercial projects, and other services including power-washing - they do it all! Chad and his team work tirelessly to ensure that the whole process is as comprehensive and convenient as possible.

The most important thing of course, especially in dealing with contractors, is integrity. We’ve all been burned at one time or another by a flaky contractor. Rest assured though, that Chad is the real deal; the type of guy you’d want to live next door to, and he’s exactly the kind of guy you want working for you. He treats every client as if they were family, and every house he works on as if it was his own. His track record speaks for itself, having built the entire business on nothing but referrals and word-of-mouth advertising. Because he and his crew do such a superior job, you won’t need to call them again for many years, but his ever-growing base of regular clients attest to his stellar reputation. He is reliable, honest, and amazing at what he does!

consistent commitment to excellence. Together, they have grown from humble beginnings averaging just 20 jobs a year, to increasing that tenfold!

But it’s not all about Chad. Another reason for his success is that he sincerely recognizes the importance of his team. His managing partner Andrea and wife Reachael both work extremely hard behind the scenes doing what Chad refers to as the “really hard stuff ”; books, scheduling, payroll, etc. They keep things running smoothly. David is their terrific salesperson who has been getting out every day to talk to people, expand the business and keep the crew busy. Last but not least, of course, are the guys on the crew themselves. Chad says he literally couldn’t do any of this without them. They are only where they are today because of the entire crew; their skill level, their loyalty, and their

They are, of course, licensed, bonded, and insured so you can rest easy trusting them with the job. If you are the kind of person who wants a change but has trouble deciding on things like color combinations, they even have a professional full-time designer who does color and material consultations to help guide you through those overwhelming decisions. If you want your house done right, call Jackson Painting now for a free estimate, or check out their website for more information including testimonials from happy homeowners.

This is a locally owned and operated business, and guys like Chad are the backbone of our local economies. We need to support them, and it’s a win-win situation! They do superior work for us, we support them with our business, they put the money they earn back into the local economy and that comes back full circle in numerous ways. Not to mention that Chad is a heck of a nice guy and you’ll feel great once he’s done making your house look better than it’s looked since it was built!

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Banner Furniture & Mattress F By Dennis McNabb, Active Media Contributing Writer Photos by Brubaker Photography

urniture is something we all own, and it’s very personal. It’s a reflection of who we are: our tastes, our aesthetic, and it’s important to find pieces that fit our style. It’s also a purchase that generally comes at considerable cost. Next to our homes, automobiles, and tech gadgets, our furniture is likely some of the most expensive items that we own. That’s why it’s imperative that we can rely on the businesses we purchase from, and that’s why you should look no further than Banner Furniture & Mattress in Hillsboro! Family-owned and operated since 1980, they strive to not only offer the best selection in the area, but also the best service. James Thurber and his mom Cathy co-own the store together, and they are genuinely sincere about wanting to provide the absolute best experience for every customer walking through their doors. They also work hard to consistently maintain the family atmosphere they’ve established for both employees and customers. At Banner, they pride themselves on the fact that they have been around for over 40 years, and they aren’t going anywhere! When you do business with them, you can rest assured that you won’t have any problems down the line. They are established in the community and engaged in their work, but this is not just any old job to them; being a family business means this is who they are, and that is absolutely reflected in their attitudes towards their customers and their community. They truly go out of their way to do right by every customer and to make them customers for life! You don’t have to take James’ word for it either. Go to their website and check out the testimonials.

showroom, and you will be greeted by friendly, professional, and helpful salespeople who only wish to help you find what you are looking for - no more and no less. They have carefully cultivated a very relaxed atmosphere where you can feel comfortable browsing with no pressure to buy. Buying furniture isn’t just a necessity. It’s an expression of ourselves and as such, it should be more than just an errand or something to check off our to-do list. It should be an experience; something that elevates our day to day lives. We should be able to get assistance and ideas from experienced salespeople who actually want to help us find the perfect items, not just make a sale. That’s what Banner Furniture is all about. Even better, they carry all of the best brands that you know and love, and they carry them at affordable prices. Because they are a family, and because they’ve been in business so long, they’ve developed fantastic long-term relationships with their vendors. That means that they will often be able to provide better products (sometimes even hard-tofind items) at cheaper prices than many other stores. Right now they have a warehouse full of beautiful, in-style furniture, and they can provide same day or next day white-glove delivery on many items that you can’t even find anywhere else. With the supply chain being less than reliable in many situations, competitors often have wait times as long as 6 months! But because they planned ahead, Banner already has tons of amazing items in stock just waiting for you to bring them home. Family-owned and operated by active members of the communities they serve (including sponsorship of many local sports teams and donating mattresses to low income families), Banner Furniture is the perfect place to buy your next piece. Support local businesses and come on down to view their fantastic selection today! Banner Furniture & Mattress is conveniently located at 4871 SE Tualatin Valley Hwy in Hillsboro.
