Elegant Embers My name is Wendy Rush Knudson. Most of you know me as Station Mom, a Volunteer First Responder, and so on. Wether it is my photography or drawing.

EMBER: “Extremely hot coals at the base of a fire, sometimes as hot as the fire itself.”
As the Phoenix life comes to a close, it bursts into flames until a pile of ash and embers is all that is left. What some may not know is my love of getting to be creative. This however has become a new passion that is so much fun. I love creating images to put on things. I hope you will love my products as much as I do.

Let's be honest: if there were an Olympic event for Market Managing, Megan Elizabeth Torres would take home the gold, silver, and bronze. 🥇🥈🥉

Whether she's watching your booth, helping with setup, tearing things down, tracking down batteries, answering a hundred questions, solving problems before anyone else even notices them, or somehow being in three places at once, Megan always shows up with a smile.

She truly cares about every vendor and goes above and beyond week after week to make the market a success. No job is too big, too small, or too random. Need a hand? Ask Megan. Need a solution? Ask Megan. Need batteries? Definitely ask Megan.

Megan, thank you for all you've done this season. You're the glue, the duct tape, the batteries, and occasionally the sanity holding this market together. We appreciate you more than words can say. Wishing you a well-deserved off-season, although we're pretty sure you'll still find a way to be helping somebody somewhere! ❤️

🍂😭 THE LAST WEDNESDAY MARKET OF THE SEASON IS TOMORROW! 😭🍂

We're not saying we're emotional about it... but there may have been some ugly crying into a stack of freshly pressed towels. 🥹

Tomorrow is our last Wednesday Market of the season, and we'd love to see your smiling faces one more time before we pack up the booth, fold the tables, and officially retire our "market lady" voice until next year.

Stop by Elegant Embers and browse all the goodies we've been creating, including tumblers, journals, gift items, and a few surprises that are looking for their forever homes before winter arrives.

This market season has been filled with laughter, conversations, familiar faces, new friends, and so much community love. You all have made every early morning setup, windy afternoon, and coffee-fueled market day worth it.

So come help us send the season off in style:
🍁 Shop local
🍁 Visit your favorite vendors
🍁 Grab a treat
🍁 Soak up one last afternoon at the market

And if you see me crying, mind your business. I'm just having an emotional support market moment. 😂

See you tomorrow at the Wednesday Market!

❤️ Wendy & Elegant Embers

🔥 A Wednesday Market Message from Elegant Embers (Reporting Live From Booth 2)

Hello, Waldport, it’s me, Elegant Embers, your favorite booth with the journals, handmade goodies, and the vendor who runs on caffeine, creativity, and pure coastal chaos.

Tomorrow from 10–3, I’ll be out at Wednesday Market, warm weather, breezy vibes, and absolutely ready to show off. The wind will try to ruffle my pages, but listen… I’ve survived My craft room, sublimation presses, glue incidents, and late‑night “I have an idea” moments. A little breeze isn’t taking me out.

🎉 Meet My Market Crew (aka The Chaos Cast)
I’ll be surrounded by a whole lineup of characters who make this market feel like a sitcom with snacks:

- Moon In The Water- Sparkly, mystical, and probably giving the breeze side‑eye.
- Hippie Heather’s Granola- Granola so good it makes people consider hiking… for like five minutes.
- Sea Salt & Sugar- Sweet treats that whisper “you deserve this” louder than Wendy does.
- Curiosities 3D Kind- 3D creations that make shoppers say, “I don’t know what this is, but I’m buying it.”
- Kelly Nine Photography- Nature photography so stunning it makes you want to quit your job, buy a backpack, and go “find yourself” in the woods… until you remember you like indoor plumbing.
- K Seas Tie‑Dye- Clothing that screams “I’m fun and I know it.”
- The Hose Reel- Pizza, pretzels, and the kind of food that makes your stomach say, “We’re stopping here. This is non‑negotiable.”

🌬️ Weather Report, Elegant Embers Edition
Warm with a little breeze, perfect for flipping my pages dramatically like I’m starring in a coastal soap opera.
Your hair? It’s on its own. Mine? I’m laminated. I win.

🎤 Music Lineup: The Soundtrack to Your Impulse Buying
Live tunes all day at the Community Center.
Perfect for dancing, toe‑tapping, or dramatically entering Booth 2 like you’re in a slow‑motion movie scene.

🌞 Final Sass‑Filled Invitation
Come see me tomorrow at Booth 2, glowing, breezy, and absolutely ready to be adopted into your home.
Whether you need a journal, a gift, or just a laugh with me, I’ve got you covered.

🌞 Wednesday Market Tomorrow 10–3!
The sun is clocked in, the breeze is behaving, and Wednesday Market is ready to redeem itself after last week’s wind‑and‑rain shenanigans. Elegant Embers will be out there with all the handmade goodies, journals, windspinners, sublimation gifts, and those “I didn’t know I needed this but now I do” treasures.

And you know it’s not a market without the rest of our community crew:

- BH Farms bringing the fresh produce and fall flavors
- Local makers with handcrafted jewelry, ceramics, and art
- Bakers & treat vendors serving up the sweet stuff
- Creative crafters filling the booths with handmade gifts, décor, and one‑of‑a‑kind finds
- Community groups sharing resources, safety info, and local support

Plus, the music lineup is rolling all day, M:n:M, Steve Cook, SLUGS, Bill Lewey, and COURT keeping the good vibes flowing.

It’s going to be a gorgeous coastal Wednesday.
Come shop local, enjoy the sunshine, and swing by Elegant Embers for your mid‑week sparkle.

Mother Nature has apparently woken up and chosen chaos, so Wednesday Market is canceled for September 2. The rain is coming in sideways like it’s trying to join a NASCAR race, and the wind is out here auditioning to be the next big Oregon Coast influencer.

Elegant Embers will be cozied up at home, crafting away while the trees outside attempt their best “leaning tower” impressions. We’ll see you next week when the weather stops acting like it needs a double timeout and a snack.

Wednesday Market is TOMORROW from 10–3, and we’re rolling in with all the mid‑week joy, sunshine, and handmade goodness your heart can handle.

Elegant Embers will be set up and fully stocked, and yes, that includes our handmade journals, vintage‑style junk‑journal pages, and all the little ephemera bits that make your creative brain light up like a porch lantern at dusk. If you love crafting, memory‑keeping, or just collecting pretty paper because it makes your soul happy, you’ll want to stop by.

We’ll also have our usual lineup of sublimation gifts, coastal‑themed goodies, windspinners, towels, tumblers, tote bags, and those “I didn’t know I needed this until right now” treasures that Elegant Embers is famous for.

Come wander the market, grab a snack, chat with your favorite vendors, and enjoy a perfect coastal Wednesday. Whether you’re shopping for gifts, treating yourself, or just soaking up the community vibes, we’d love to see you.

If you need a gift, a treat, a mood boost, or just an excuse to browse pretty things, we got you covered.
Swing through and support your local makers. We’re here, we’re cheerful, and we’re caffeinated.

Tomorrow I’ll be setting up at the Moose Vendor & Street Dance from 12–5, and I’m already preparing my “I totally lifted that box without grunting” face. 💁‍♀️💪

Come enjoy food, music, and more — the kind of “more” that makes small‑town events the best. Great vendors, good eats, live tunes, and me pretending I’m not absolutely going back for seconds at the food table. 🎶🍔🛍️

Stop by, say hi, browse a bit, dance a bit, snack a bit — it’s the perfect Saturday combo.

Thank you to every drenched, wind‑whipped, thunder‑jumping legend who showed up at Waldport Wednesday Market today.

We didn’t just have “a little coastal weather.”
We had full cinematic drama, monsoon rains, sideways wind, lightning that sounded like the sky was frying bacon, and thunder so loud it probably reset a few pacemakers.

Shoppers and vendors were huddled under canopies like we were forming a temporary storm‑survival commune. At one point it felt less like a market and more like a team‑building exercise sponsored by Mother Nature.

And speaking of team‑building…
A special thank‑you to everyone who helped chase down the Great Napkin Escape of 2026.
One perfectly timed gust turned our dispenser into a confetti cannon, and suddenly half the market was sprinting after airborne napkins like we were competing in the Waldport Paper Goods Olympics.
Gold medals all around.

To the shoppers who still browsed, laughed, and supported local vendors, you’re the real MVPs.
To the vendors who held onto their canopies like they were trying not to get yeeted into the next county, absolute heroes.
To the weather… please take a nap.

Wild day, unforgettable crowd.
Same time next week, ideally with fewer lightning sound effects and significantly less napkin aerobics.
