5 Stars for a teeny tiny gift shop that PACKS the goods!…read more Seriously, though only about 5 people can fit inside his shop at any given time, there must be a thousand little specialty gifts and goods to choose from. Every inch of the display space is packed to the gills, but it doesn't feel messy- instead it feels perfectly curated and like every thing has its perfect place! It's a pink, purple, and rainbow-colored dream house and has a gift for any occasion. I would imagine this would be a great shop for bachelorettes, brides, birthday folks, host/hostess, bestie, etc. Heck- I can't imagine going in and not leaving with something for yourself! So excited to have a spot for unique gifts for so many occasions.

Great items for your house or gift ideas for loved ones who own a beach house or have a beach themed room! A variety of mirrors, furniture, candles, trinkets, decor, and accessories. While this isn't really my decor, I stopped in here for present ideas for my father and his wife as they own a beach condo. Tons of light, pastel colors and a light, airy feel in the designs. I appreciate that they decorated giving it a beach feel all around as you are checking everything out. Reminds me of a Jersey beach house I used to visit when I was younger. They have beach items to purchase too if you want to decorate your own item at home; seashells, sand, etc. Stop in, the lady working when I was checking things out was super inviting and kind. You can tell the artists and local vendors truly appreciate Artegon to display their products. Love that!

I do walk through to see what they have frequency, but it is rare that I would make a purchase because the items I tend to want are priced out of my range. If I had someone who was a big fan, I would definitely consider buying gifts here. And this most recent visit, I realized how long it has been since I have really shopped because they have truly expanded the selection of items that they have. I did not realize that they carry Swarovski Crystal. I used to buy Swarovski from their stores with some regularity when I was younger. What are things I love about stopping through is quite often. You can see one of the artists developing pieces. I'm always amazed at the talent. These people have and the quality of the workmanship. For me, I would love to be able to buy one of the chess sets that they have. I will have to start saving my pennies so that I can hopefully buy one one day.
