So many beautiful items to choose from but I bought a multi color tuxedo cat painting , since I have tuxedo cats. I would add I did see some small Trump and Desantis items at the register area but the owner has a right to carry items of their choosing, and people have a right to purchase or not.What is deeply troubling to me in previous review , is a visceral reaction which apparently entitles someone to unleash a tirade on a store owner they do not know , it defies logic. This is a lovely store and it is definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.

This artist is very talented. His artwork is beautiful! However, my husband who is a combat…read moreveteran, was not impressed when the artist started telling us about his military themed art.

The clothing is unquestionably feminine without being "foo-foo." The styles won't suit everyone of course, but with just a couple of odd exceptions (related to strange prints), I found the clothing tasteful. I picked up an adorable little dress here for $36 that may fit better than any dress I've ever owned. (For real.) And, the owner is super friendly... as evidenced by the fact that she said nothing as a perused after she'd turned off the lights and music after closing. (Would you believe I didn't even notice? Thanks to my girl T for waking me up! :P )

It was a wonderful, educational outing that appeals to both adults and children. I highly recommend it!

Incredible all around!…read more The moment you walk through the doors of this place, you can feel the passion, art, creativity, ingenuity and resilience. And if you're lucky enough to meet the owner, he's sure to put a smile on your face. Onofrio is a wonderful man that cares deeply about the community. Matlacha has suffered back to back to back to back loss. The type of loss no one can really imagine or understand. It takes years to even find clarity and words to describe what this community has gone through. So instead of focusing on what happened during the devastating hurricanes (yes more than one and add in direct hit from a tornado after the great flood). I encourage everyone to take advantage of the honor and privilege it is to walk through the doors of places still standing in Matlacha. This place is extremely special, because you can get custom made. If that doesn't "I love you" in some sort of token or momento, what does? Walk through these doors often and support as much as you can. As if dollars were smiles and smiles were dollars.
