artisanal gifts

What an amazing store and even more amazing owner/artisan! My husband and I were spending the weekend in Jim Thorpe and popped in this shop. Maria was so welcoming, kind and helpful. She helped me find 2 styles that I may not have picked for myself but I LOVE them. I also snagged a beautiful crossbody purse. We picked out some jewelry for our girls and Maria took time and packed them beautifully. A must stop if you are in town. She is also very generous and gives back to the local community and her home country of Colombia.

We love this shop! Maria is amazing! As soon as you enter the store your eyes want to look at everything at once, so many cool colors and styles of shoes, bags, pillow covers, masks and jewelry. Maria and her staff are amazing at finding what you need and accessories that complement them perfectly. Today we met with Maria to purchase Christmas gifts for us and the family. She took the time to show us several styles of different things and even went above and beyond and made the belt we wanted for one gift the correct size while we waited! We highly recommend stopping at her store if you are in Jim Thorpe, the experience is worth the trip. There will definately be some very happy people on Christmas morning thanks to Maria helping us pick out the perfect gifts!

This shop is amazing! At first you may feel overwhelmed by the choices, but Maria and her staff will help you find just the right pair(s) of shoes. I have 3 pair and they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. You have to try them and feel the difference. They are also beautifully crafted.

It was a great experience shopping at Artisanal Gifts! Maria is a very talented artist and that talent comes shining through in the work. She took the time to wrap my purchases with all the care that you would expect her to use if she were wrapping her own gifts. It is truly rare to find someone who puts all of themselves (mind, body and spirit) into the creation and presentation of such fine work. Thank you, for all that you do, Maria!

What a wonderful person and what wonderful art! Incredibly Intelligent and creatively minded, Maria was so wonderful and warm in greeting us and giving us the history of her art. This isn't just a store for clothing, this is an art gallery and An experience. I bought an adorable pair of cowboy boots, of which all of her art is one of a kind. If not looking for a purchase when entering the store, look to learn something new and interesting about passionate people and unique clothing.
