Tea Time With Adorn

September 23, 2020 8:03 pm Published by

Last month Adorn “celebrated” our 20th year of operations.  Previous anniversaries were accompanied by all the FUN and Prizes!! …Mechanical bulls, Suspension, Luaus complete with Hula dancers, Sumo suits, and Inflated Wrestling Rings, Costume Contests, and FOOD… always food.

We are a crew that loves to eat and sling bling!

With the constraints of Covid, the 20-year milestone came and went while we scrambled to resume operations under a cloud of economic and physical uncertainty in the midst of an environmental crisis and righteous social/civic unrest.  We are grateful for our lives and livelihoods and remain enthusiastically committed to our motto that “EVERY body deserves to be Adorned.”  Now just does not feel like the time to party.  Neither does it seem right to let it come and go without acknowledging the honor it has been to continue to serve and to re-dedicate ourselves to our mission.

When adorn first opened our doors in Beaverton we had grand aspirations to be an all-female tattoo and piercing studio.  However, it wasn’t very long before we adapted to a multi-gender approach with strong feminist leadership in the form of Anne Morando as Lead Tattooist and myself -Desta Fury (then Spence) as the Senior piercer.  (Next month will mark the 25th year of piercing since attending Gauntlet Piercer training in 1995.)  There have been many changes along the way and through the decades. Life is what happens while we are making our plans.  We are grateful to find ourselves mid-pandemic with an amazing staff blended of both fresh faces and familiar favorites.  We couldn’t do what we do without their many contributions and perspectives.  So with this inaugural blog/newsletter, I would like to make a Shout Out to the contributions both painful and profound of past, present, and future adorn employees and artists. Thank You!

It goes without saying but bears repeating…Nothing we do would have meaning or value we wouldn’t even exist- without our clients! so

THANK YOU!

While we do not know what the future holds for any of us…We look forward to adorning you for many years to come.  With that in mind, if you made it through this very personal and likely uninteresting Adorn Saga…Please enjoy 20% off your next jewelry purchase by mentioning to the counter person the secret password phrase

“ADORNforever”

Please join us by signing up for our Quarterly newsletter where we promise to move beyond nostalgia into exciting premiere jewelry shopping events, video interviews with amazing designers and industry innovators… and all the secret deals and early access to our Fantastic Bling collection.

Really great place. Awesome selection and professional staff. I've had a tattoo and nose piercing and I'd go back again for a new service.

I first came to Adorn to get my piercing I received at Slave to the Needle (in Seattle) checked, it was a Daith. I was developing a small pyogenic granuloma and Lia checked it out, suggested I use saline to clean it twice a day and even took pictures of it to determine progress if it gets worse later. I was told by Lia and my dermatologist that it might not go away, as some don't. But It cleared it RIGHT up!Then I went back because I took out all my piercings because I had to get an MRI. Lia was my piercer again and got it back in within minutes. It was a newer piercing so I was worried it had closed... and to my surprise it did a little but Lia was able get it right back in. It was tricky but she was patient and calming the whole time.I plan to get 2 more piercings and I'd love for Lia to do them. She was gentle and so knowledgeable. I'm also going to bring my daughter to get her ears pierced when she's a little older, and I pray pray pray Lia will still be here when my daughter is ready to get her ears pierced. I don't think I'd want anyone else touching my little girls ears besides anyone at Adorn!! Id especially love for Lia to do it but I haven't had the pleasure to meet any other piercer (might be fate though.. when I made the appointment I just made it for available piercer and both times I got Lia).Oh and the jewelry here is AUHMAZZZING I want them all!!!Fair prices and amazing selection.Definitely coming back soon!!!

Had a lovely experience at my appointment and leading up to my appointment. Everyone was very nice and the place was very clean. Only bummer was they didn't have the jewelry I wanted in gold. Will be going back though for sure.

Stop what you're doing and make an appointment to get something pierced with Dana. He is amazing and a total expert in his craft! Plus his patience is close to sainthood. I was so anxious when I got there and he was able to put me at ease and answer all of my dumb questions. Plus he is so personable that you feel very comfortable which is a necessity when someone is putting a hole in your body. I cannot recommend this place enough!

I had my septum re-pierced and philtrum pierced recently here. 2+ piercings in 1 session gets you a discount, which is awesome! The team at Adorn is APP certified- meaning they are extensively trained in safe piercings from clean stations to clean jewelry practices- they are experts at what they do. They have jewelry options for different price points- lots of stainless steel, inexpensive and beautiful jewelry options as well as a wide variety of gold, white gold, and gemstone jewelry on the pricier end. I love that they offer more luxurious and high-end jewelry here. My piercer was Dana, he made the experience very relaxing and I felt super comfortable. They answered all of my questions, and their team deeply cares about the people who come into their shop. Im so happy with my new piercings, I highly recommend Dana and Adorn Body Art.

I took my daughter (8 years) to get her ears pierced. Dana was so calm, informative, and kind. He made the experience easy. My daughter is thrilled. Everyone working there were extremely nice. I would highly recommend Adorn!
