About

Modish (pronounced: mode-ish) is a daily design and style blog run by editor, Jena Coray. Launched in April 2006, Jena's focus has been to help bring awareness to talented emerging artists and designers. By sharing her favorite handmade & vintage goods, art & photography, fashion & design, she supports the most innovative, independent and sustainable prodcuts in the marketplace, all the while, sharing some inspiration and eye-candy along the way.

Jena writes from her home in Portland, OR which she shares with her favorite mister, Justin, a big headed dog named Otis and two hilarious cats. You can also find her at her sister site, Modish BIZtips, offering bright ideas for your creative business, over on flickr or twittering away.
