Hammer + Jacks

Filled with so many mixed feelings right now. Sadness, gratitude, relief, but mostly exhaustion. Thank you all so very much. I know my words are short right now, but I promise there are more to come! Thank you all so much for everything. You mean the world to our little family!

Friday, June 20th, is our last day in our space. We need to be fully cleaned out and empty by the afternoon.
I am so sad to leave it, but also incredibly grateful for being able to create and grow something absolutely incredible! We have a lot of random stuff left! Come snag something if you can and help us move out without to much to store!1

We are so excited to share that wants to keep kids playing with H+J magic! Link in the bio!

From the amazing team at Flip:

Save the H+J Playground with The FLIP Museum

We have raised $3,500 of the $5,500 Goal!

The FLIP Museum is partnering with community members to purchase and preserve the beloved, hand-crafted play structure at Hammer + Jacks. This is a meaningful way to support Jillian and the H+J family as they close the store and embark on their next chapter.

With your help, this iconic play structure will continue to spark joy—relocated to The FLIP Museum’s current home in downtown Hillsboro, and potentially featured at a future Portland location, now in development.

Support local families and help this treasured piece live on by contributing to the campaign today.

Quick update: I can't believe I didn't get any pictures of our party! If you want to share any, please tag them, and we will repost them. It was such a bittersweet day, but it was filled with fun, hugs, flowers, balloons, and even duck eggs. Thank you all so much for celebrating with me! Ending this is hard, but knowing we could share it with you makes all the difference.
I'm sorry I have been so quiet. I have had a lot of sad feelings to process, but also a lot of truly amazing memories, which I am so incredibly thankful for.

So now what? Well, we have to leave our space. Our landlord has been incredibly flexible and kind, but we can't drag this out. Closing costs are adding up, and emotionally, it's overwhelming.
Now we are starting our big fixtures and more sale. If you represent a preschool or local Business or just need some shelving for your house or workshop and would like to come shop and see things in person, let me know. We will happily set up a time. Otherwise, I am going to start posting everything here, including measurements and info, this time! See something a friend might want? Please share it!

Thank you so much for your continued support. It means a lot to us!

Jillian and the confetti crew

It's bittersweet, but we can't wait to see you! Friday and Saturday play is free, and we will have kids, music, comedy, and balloons throughout the day! Plus look! We built a second stage! There are still toys for sale just off to the side 🤣🫣😋 Come for our last two days as we celebrate the beautiful place we have built!

In an effort to pay off outstanding debt and bridge the gap to our next endeavor, we will have a little fun auctioning off some beautiful pieces of Hammer and Jack's history! Head to our website to bid and own an extra special piece of H+J in your own home or Business!

Thank you all for helping us build this dream!!!
