41 Oak Tree Rd, Southbury“When I need a special, unique gift for a friend, family, new parents, grandparents and the like, I always find a gift that gets the "oohs and aaahhs" when opened. A variety of high quality, with fair prices, in a welcoming, fun place to shop, with welcoming staff. The inventory changes with the seasons and never disappoints. A gem of a gift shop in Southbury.”
“The Gift Cottage is a staple of downtown Bethel, which starts with the super cute and well-kept exterior. Inside are lots of well made gifts, most of which you won’t find anywhere else (especially the Christmas ornaments that have scenes from area towns — those are specially made for The Gift Cottage, and are hand painted!).
The prices are what you would expect for good quality items, many of which are hand made.
Be sure to try a truffle, but be warned: you may leave with a box! They’re out of this world.
Last but certainly not least is the staff - Joan, her daughter and the rest of the team are genuinely friendly people who clearly love the store, their customers, and take pride in curating unique gifts that fill their store.
My wife found several treasures, including a nice small purse and mosquito repellent scarf! Oh, and of course truffles. =)
I HIGHLY recommend The Gift Cottage and can’t wait to return.”
“A great Christian gift and book store right in the he center of Bethel. The owners were so nice and helpful. Highly recommend this place if you need a special gift or book for a new birth, communion, conformation, graduation, baptismal , wedding etc..”
“Great quality items. Very helpful n friendly staff! Items are different from what you find in other Plaza stores. Wonderful cards and paper items too. Any occasion shopping!!”

860 Main St S, Woodbury“This is one of my all time, long time favorite gift shops in Town. The handcrafted pewter pieces are masterpieces of local craftsmanship. They have a large assortment of cards, paper goods, and gifts for all age groups. It's my 'go to' location for Stonewall Kitchen products. They also carry Fascia's Chocolate( made by a family of Chocolatiers in Waterbury. If you walk out without making a purchase, I'd be surprised. It is one of Woodbury's local 'gems'.”
“Soulbury is a fun and funky shop with unique clothing, jewelry, housewares, and gifts. Each step brings something new and interesting to view. The staff is lovely, kind and helpful. I've never been disappointed shopping here.”
“Mother earth is one of my favorite places to shop. Always something to see or a treasure to find.The staff is always helpful and friendly. If you cant find it, they will try to get it for you.”

The perfect pick-me-up that she needed. Thank you SO much for the wonderful staff who took my call and made sure the fruit was delivered same day. I cannot say enough to express my gratitude. I highly recommend them!”

I have had to call on 2 occasions to change a delivery date and modify an order and staff was very helpful and got everything done quickly and correctly.. no complaints, definitely recommend them :-)”
“I have been enjoying this store ever since we moved here-so reminds me of a store in Ridgefield that closed years ago but with a fabulous, lovely owner who takes pride in her merchandise as well as her clients. You can find cute jewelry, housewares, anything Newtown/Sandy hook, wedding gifts, fantastic candles, fun socks, candies...an incredible array of goodies, well priced and always well received. Perfect spot to hit for Valentine's Day and Fall shopping!”
