welcome to
Lily & Cane
My name is Sherine, owner, dreamer, creator.
I didn't start off as a stylist, but design and creativity were always part of my life. My first career was in Branding. Before opening Lily & Cane and venturing into event rentals I used to work as a Marketing Director. I worked on branding, company culture, and client events.
It's while planning one of our events that I first fell in love with the events world and where I saw a small niche for myself to bring to the Portland events industry new options that weren't just different and unique but also high in quality.

Lily & Cane are fictitious characters (no, not my kids' names). They are surnames but more importantly, they are found in nature.
Lily is a flower, feminine, delicate, beautiful. Cane is a stem you can pull from Bamboo or Sugar cane, used to make furniture, like our Cane chairs :) Cane is the yin to Lily's yang ...
That just about sums up our brand. We draw our inspiration for our designs and our custom made pieces from the beauty found in nature, while being light and approachable and certainly welcoming to all.
about our name
You know when you have this image in your head and you go out into the world looking for it?
That's us. We have a vision for what type of furniture we should carry, what type of furniture, you our client, should have at your awesome event, and if we just can't find it, we will make it.
Custom making furniture is not easy. But my process is to start with a sketch, write down some specs and start testing. For example testing wood types and stain colors. We then search for the right local talent to make it for us. AND REPEAT, until we get it right.

There’s this picture of my parents that seems to appear in my head from time to time. It’s black and white with that white crinkly border that old photos had. They were young, just newly engaged, they’re at the dinner table, my mom is feeding my dad and laughing hysterically, and so is he. I can’t believe how much that photo inspires me. I see a young couple about to embark on a journey together, with all the unknowns that marriage and the future holds, and they are so happy in that moment that happens to be frozen in time because someone had the good sense to snap that photo.
What I do every day is embodied in that photo. People coming together to celebrate a past, a present or a future. Whether it’s a wedding, a company or client event, a brand environment, events are a celebration, a coming together of people. How lucky that this is my work.
So that’s the woman behind the brand. Just a girl, in the world, inspired by her travels, her family and the goodness in others.
