We stopped by the store on a recent trip. Their products are exquisite, and their staff is very kind & gives exceptional service. We were fortunate enough to meet Gary Vaillancourt, and he gave us a tour & history. It was one of the highlights of our trip! Highly recommend.

Great gold Liberty Bell for the upcoming holidays! Smart to mix and match at this bell goes well with my Jim Shore eagle. Always a pleasure to receive a holiday item from Vaillancourt Folk Art with its novel items (with storage boxes) and quick, effective shipping.
