This is always an adventure in shopping - love seeing all the incredible books and art and woodwork and ceramics. You will not be disappointed if you stop for a visit.

A must-visit for anyone in the area. SO much locally created artwork of all sorts and plenty of well-curated Swedish food and gifts. Almost everything seems to be locally sourced or import from Sweden. Very little that is mass-produced elsewhere as many other businesses seem to be trending towards.My favourites are the absolutely stunning paintings/carvings of the St. Croix in the front left corner of the Gallery... but you can find so much else. They have all manner of different media of art and even fine woodwork and furniture, and a frame shop.

This is now Gladje! I visited for the first time on Small Business Saturday and was overwhelmed at the space they have - the building seems to go on forever and there are a few small rooms to check out too. Right away we were greeted by a sweet and bubbly employee and told what deals they had happening and she explained a little bit about the place. There's a check out desk near the back of the building and a painter actively working who was also very friendly. They didn't seem at all perturbed by little ones running around, they welcomed a family with little children and weren't nervous about them breaking anything (there's much to look at and potentially break!) Prices were higher but they're all local artists so I am absolutely not complaining. I got a book for my godchild that was signed by the local author as well as a cute travel puzzle for her birthday - I know she'll love it. I would love to check out their classes and wish I was more local to check out their live music on Saturdays too, such a warm and friendly place!

Wow! I really can't say enough good things about Gladje. They do custom framing and I had two large posters that I had wanted to frame for several years. I was a bit discouraged since custom framing is not a cheap service and when I shopped for framing services online most options were out of budget for me. I later heard of Gladje and made an appointment for a framing consultation. The owner was extremely kind and helpful. She spent quite a while showing me all of my options at various price ranges. She took the time to gather samples from some of their discontinued frame styles. They were heavily discounted as they were discontinued and there were only a few pieces left. Using the discontinued pieces saved me a lot of money on my project and me it affordable for me to do. The end result really impressed me! When I picked up my finished, framed art pieces, I could not believe how flawless and beautiful they turned out! This is truly a 5 star business and they care about their customers and the quality of their work. Check out my photos to see the stunning end result.

Stopped by the other day to have a custom framing appointment with the owner, Jana! She is absolutely wonderful, and took her gracious time so I felt satisfied with my purchase! I cannot wait to see the outcome!
