There are many small things which can be good for wedding flavors or as swags in events.

I only had a limited amount of time in the area and wanted to find a boutique with locally made artisan pieces from and was lucky to find this one in one of the travel guides at my hotel. I picked up a few different items, a small bird made from re-purposed metal, a lovely necklace, a stylish cell phone holder, and some special sea salt. So much fun. I'll be back for sure the next time I'm in the area!

Wow, what a wonderful experience dealing with the extremely helpful staff at the Salish Sea Market…read more I had been in the store on a previous trip to the Island (what a treasure trove of unique gifts and art) and a relative fell in love with a piece but could not buy it at the time. I emailed the staff and they emailed me back with pictures and information about shipping, and made the process of buying an item without being in the store so absolutely painless and easy. I cannot thank them enough for helping me out. I really recommend having a look at their website www.salishseamarket.com/ or visiting in person when in the area. Special kudos to Vivian and Sarah

This place is an utter delight. Most airport gift shops have a bunch of overpriced souvenirs (made…read morein China, more often than not), with a few gems here and there among the junk. This place packs an astonishing variety of goodies into a remarkably small space, and the stuff they sell is really nice. Lots of it is locally made, including designs by local artists. I just marvelled at the taste, quality, and selection. It's almost a place that you could walk into blindfolded, pick something up at random, and it would be very appealing (at least to me). And, unlike the shops in Vancouver Airport or Toronto Pearson, the goods aren't ludicrously overpriced. The clerk was also vary patient with us as we wandered around the shop, poking and prodding at things, and piling our choices on the counter. I could almost say that it's worth going to Comox just to shop here, but there are so many other things to do and see in the area that that wouldn't be quite fair.

Boyfriend and I were browsing in Pemberton, having been thwarted of our plans to pet farm animals…read morein the winter (at least we missed the petting farm by a whole season), and happened to see bright paper flower cloud things in the shop window. Ordinarily I would have passed by a store front this unpretentious but I'm glad the rest of the town looked even less appealing. One Earth seems to be a collection of all sorts of arts, crafts and jewelry from artists. A print of Vanessa Stark's caught my eye, and for $35 Canadian I thought it was a steal (I am going to frame this beautiful piece). The assortment of jewelry is every jewelry collector's dream come true. I found earrings that don't look remotely like any of the ones I own and I own too many pairs. The piece ranges from reasonable to quite hefty. I left One Earth a print piece and a pair of earrings to add to my name, and a happy customer!

This place has quite the price range and variety for such a little shop. I love that they believe…read morein locally sourced, handcrafted, sustainable stuff. They have some clothing, candles, artwork, jewelry, and some skin stuff. I particularly love the jewelry and have bought quite a bit from here. There have been times I've gone in to browse and walked out having spent more money than I would like to admit. There was one lady I've seen there that wouldn't help me because she was busy talking to two of her friends that were visiting about the party they had the night before. Other than that the service here has been good. There's usually a different lady I see when I'm there and she's great. I like to stop in whenever I'm in the area and have a bit of time to look around and find cool things for myself or for gifts.

The bars come as milk or dark chocolate with dried fruits and nuts pressed into them or just nuts or biscuit pearls or are sprinkled with sea salt. As someone who cannot digest dairy, it was wonderful to see that the dark chocolate bars are vegan and contain no dairy. We also had a chance to chat with the friendly owner and it was a great experience. A few weeks ago we visited Squamish again and were happy to see that the chocolate bars still look amazing. We bought a bunch of bars and now have a decent stash to last for a while and to give as gifts. Though it's hard to moderate when the bars taste so good. Thank you, Xoco Chocolate!

If you're headed up the Sea to Sky highway from Vancouver it's worth a stop in Squamish…read more One place you should definitely check out is Xoco Chocolate. The dark chocolate bars with roasted nuts and dried fruits is one of favorites. The quality of the dark chocolate is very good and the bars taste as good as they look. The dark chocolate is vegan.

We stop every time we're up that way.
