Laughing Fish Gallery is what my DREAMS are made of! I wanted to buy one of everything in here and…read moreI was so immediately overwhelmed by how everything in there was exactly my aesthetic! I can't believe I exhibited such self-restraint and only bought one thing. (Although, a couple days after visiting I went onto their website a bought a few more items :P!) I love that this store is a mother/daughter duo owned store! The daughter (EchoFoxx) does all these incredibly stunning watercolor artworks, prints, stickers, etc. of Michigan & nature that feel plucked right out of the inside of my brain, and the mother does adorable fish & other creature sculptures that are so whimsical. Do yourself a favor and check out this store in downtown Suttons Bay. It's absolutely breathtaking!

The opportunity to learn and see taxidermy and how the animals would look in their natural habitat is unmatched. The owners are both knowledgeable and will take time to answer any questions you may have. I love the sounds that play as you walk throughout and the different readings you can look at. The gift shop, although not to my taste, has some great and interesting finds you won't see at any old gift shop in ER. I wish there were more Guntzviller's specific items, because I come for the museum and can't afford any of the taxidermy myself (yet).
