Wyland Galleries in Lake Tahoe is a very pricy art gallery with some unique pictures and…read moresculptures. They don't allow photos so it's kind of ridiculous for me to describe what I saw but I'll give it a try. Best you go there yourself. Wyland himself is best known for his Whaling Wall murals and sea life conservation efforts. There was a thick glass coffee table supported by what seemed like a dolphin or whale base which I believe was by Wyland. There were two other types of animal sculptures that I found to be delightful: a large, almost life-sized metal dog with extra long legs and many smaller, very colorful animal pieces made with various found objects. One looked like it had a body part made using part of an ice cream cone. Art is meant to be seen and my descriptions can't possibly do them justice. Another artist, Oryan, does something called liquid fusion. It's quite a complicated process. I did take a picture of a poster about him, just not the actual art. Even if these works of art are out of your price range as they are mine, it's still fun to admire the talent of these artists.

Out of all the stores in South Lake Tahoe this is by far my favorite. I love their wooden maps. I…read morebought one for my husband as a wedding gift as we got married in Tahoe and were staying at the Grand Resort. The map is so intricate and even has an alcove of where we got married on it. I have seen other maps that are encased in glass. Now looking back I wonder why they didn't offer that option to me as an upgrade. I would have totally jumped on it as the delicate map wouldn't collect dust like it does now. They had a tahoe girl sweater that caught my eye this time. I loved the softness of it and the white color. What was a turn off was the length it was just too short. In the winter I don't want my tummy hanging out. I want to keep it nice and warm with the rest of me. They also have a nice selection of soaps that always catch my eye. I love homemade soaps and these look locally made. One day I'll cough of the money for a bar or two. I was going to get one for my gf as a gift, but I don't know if she loves soaps as much as i do or if she just goes for the soft soap on a bottle. I'll have to ask her then next time I see her. Last time I bought a paper pop up flower display for my gf's retirement gift. It was so fun as it was beautiful and never dies. I hope she liked it as much as I did. One thing that caught my eye last time I was there was a fleece blanket with a map of South Lake Tahoe on it. It was soft on the map side and fleece on the back side. It looked so cozy warm. I would have totally gotten it if not a month before I had gotten one from Alaska that had a map of Alaska on it. This blanket will make someone a great gift. I hope you enjoy this store as much as I do and take home a piece of South Lake Tahoe with you.

Located next to Starbucks and…read moreacross from Base Camp Pizza, it's one of those places that's worth walking through even if you don't plan on buying anything. Think of it as an art gallery mixed with a modern gift shop, filled with thoughtfully curated home décor, unique keepsakes, and Tahoe-inspired finds. We were welcomed as we walked in, which was a nice touch considering how busy the store was. The candles are always my favorite, and I make it a point to check out their beautiful wood-carved Lake Tahoe maps and canvas artwork every year. They have a great selection of pieces that can add a little Tahoe charm and sophistication to your home. Everything feels intentionally selected, and despite fitting so much into the space, the store never feels cluttered or overwhelming. One of my favorite surprises this visit was their expanded hat selection. They had trendy designs, Smokey Bear hats, and national park-inspired apparel that stood out from the typical souvenir shop offerings. It felt like they had something for just about everyone while still staying true to the Tahoe vibe. I'll definitely be back for another candle, sticker, or hat. And one of these days, when the budget and wall space allow, I may finally bring home one of those wood-carved maps. If you're looking for a unique Tahoe gift--or something for yourself--this is absolutely a store worth stopping into.

November 22, 2014…read more Locals and folks driving by on HWY 395 need to stop and check this spot out. If you're like me you've been driving by for months and you've been wondering what is actually going on in there. Heck, the location has been a local coffee shop, and it's also been a flower shop more recently, so what is this year's offering in this space. It's art, it's local, and it's staffed by the artists. They're not paying anybody to staff the store, and so when you walk in you're going to meet one of the people that has created the work in the store. I really enjoyed it. For me, it was like talking to the wine maker about the wine he was making. Today I got to talk to Nancy Raven, and she was very easy to talk to, proud of the group of artists that were showing their work, and proud of her own work. As I walked in Nancy was sweeping the floor, and the shop was clean, organized and easy to walk through, not cluttered and dangerous. There is pottery in the store, mixed media, photographic work, wood work, and color pencil drawings. There is a lot of items that focus on the western experience, and so you'll see cowboys, horses, rusted cars, and wooden bowls. How are the prices? I thought they were very reasonable, and there was a wide range of price points. There were some consignment items, but I didn't look at them and can't comment on them. To conclude, this is a great spot to shop local, and well worth the stop.
