My family and I came here a little while ago and they have so many cool Knick knacks ranging from candles, cards, notebooks, toys, books, jewelry, clothing and accessories. It's gorgeously decorated and their items are displayed and arranged nicely. I can't wait to come back here so I can discover and fall in love with more of their items.

It's a destination location for one of a kind gifts, and a true experience each time you walk in.

If you are looking for a meaningful, one of a kind gift for someone you love - this is the ONLY place to go!”

My next visit to Marblehead will include this hands on experience.”

The staff is so kind and welcoming. As new Salem residents, we found out our admission was free, a wonderful perk! BTW as a veteran, I would have had free admission as well. Everything is beautifully laid out, and a nice mix of old and new artists and current artists is displayed. It was a fun afternoon and added to our day.”

“I took a trip to Salem in August and this, by far, was one of my favorite shops to visit! It was amazing! Not only did it have a wonderful assortment of Salem souvenirs, but also a well curated collection of rocks and crystals, jewelry, accessories, and art. Customer service was wonderful - helpful, but not hovering! It is a great place to shop for gifts! Weeks later when I was back home and it was time to shop for a friend's birthday, I used the shop's website to order the perfect present. All my questions were addressed in a very pleasant and timely manner by Stephanie, the store's owner, no less! Could not be happier with my experience all around!”

She ABSOLUTELY loves it unfortunately the hat is way too small for her ? It's sitting on a shelf in her room with the tags still on it! My fault , it was hard to figure out her size without her with me.”

She had beautiful paintings she made all around and pretty cards she painted on as well. Her items were of excellent quality and I got a nice beanie and scarf and handmade soaps from there. Overall, she's wonderful and I'm happy she's one of 9 women owned businesses in the area. I'd recommend this to be a must visit.”

I have only ever ordered online from them, but each time they make special effort to ensure that everything is perfect and as intended when it arrives.

Thanks, Brett and Nanci!”

It was a cold and rainy April day and lots of places had already closed but I saw this place had their lights on from a distance. I hopped through the ran and was so happy I did! It was such a quaint place with the friendliest owner and really cute stuff, not just decor but bath and skincare things too! I will definitely come back when I get to explore Salem on a longer visit.”
10AM - 7PM
226 Essex St, Salem“Cute Giftshop with a great selection of t-shirts. We went on a busy Saturday in October, so I expected some chaos, but it was closer to madness. The guy at the door wasn't regulating the amount of customers going in, so you couldn't move to even look at anything. The owner, I believe, was trying to restock tees as fast as she could through the crowd (she was kind and helpful). The staff checking us out, however, were the rudest we encountered our entire week in Salem. One older lady came to tell our cashier how she was gonna move to Italy and get the heck out of this forsaken place. Mind you, there are tons of people around listening to this! I understand it's extremely busy this time of year, but what a sour impression. The other 2 cashiers looked manic and were also annoyed. Go when it's not busy, it's a cute shop despite the staff.”
“I love bringing my littles here to buy presents for each other, for birthday parties, etc. It has a small town toy store feel with some lovely hostess gifts, clothing, etc.”
