Our story

Hi lovely!

We're sisters who created the business and shop of their dreams located in the center of Punavuori, Helsinki. Creating beautiful details by hand, winding down and enjoying the beauty of small moments have always been at the heart of our overall well-being and happiness. We'd even dare to call ourselves "the experts of hygge"! All those elements combined are the beating heart of our business.

We wanted to create a calm and beautiful environment in the busy city center where you can wind down sipping a cup of tea, get crafty in our workshops, shop unique lifestyle products, receive a tarot-reading or spend time connecting with other people.

Our mission is to create more balance into our hectic lifestyles and the stress of it all- reminding our clients that happiness lies in our ability to slow down and the small moments and details of life. We also love to buy beautiful and unique gifts to our loved ones and ourselves. That is why we created the gift selection of our dreams to shop from! 

Welcome to Portal of Joy! And thank you for supporting our dreams and mission <3
