Interesting to me that these people make a living by selling items intended to celebrate Christmas, yet one of the owners’ family members told a story of feeling so threatened and scared when a “fundamentalist Christian” came in the store and said “I love Jesus” a few times. Hmm… what is the target market here? Maybe it is time to stop profiting from something that threatens you. Maybe get out of the CHRISTmas business.

Likely the best Christmas store in the USA.

I've done business with this company twice in the last 6.5 months--once in-person and the second over-the-phone just within the last few days. Both times have been an utter JOY! Their vast selection, ease to do business with, and customer service are amazing--something seldom seen nowadays. I just received my 2x NM Zia hot air balloon ornaments for friends who (now) reside out of state. Thank you all for being wonderful! I will continue to give you the best remarks! :)

This small shop has some cool stuff by local artists like Kimo DeCora as well as some cheaper plastic ornaments. It's great for picking up gifts. Parking is terrible in the area so if you go, it's worth checking out more shops nearby in this crowded, touristy part of town. There's 3 staff. 2 are helpful, kind, and seem to enjoy their jobs. Then, there's the one staff lady that seems to hate her job and people. Ole Scrooge was short with customers, made all sorts of facial expressions, snide remarks and was unhelpful until she got called out. We dropped about $150 here on 7 ornaments despite the cringe of feeling like annoying tourists. Sadly, that stands out to us versus the cool items and other 2 delightful staff.

Their customer service is amazing!!! I had a situation that I was absolutely heartbroken over. My boyfriend emailed them. Not only were they responsive and helpful. They fixed the situation with such care. I couldn't be happier. I am so grateful. Such a wonderful shop. I will recommend this shop to any and everyone. Thank you again for everything.

We just received our purchases from our trip to Santa Fe. We stopped at The Shop a Christmas Store while walking around and found some beautiful unique items and the owners were very friendly. We got an Anita Ortiz Glass Nativity, a handmade New Mexico drum ornament, and a fun Piñata Ornament. Every item was securely pack in a box we can reuse for storage, and then all the boxes inside a strong cardboard with filler. Thank you very much, can't wait for Christmas to display everything ??

Loved this shop! The owners were very kind and helpful. They told me which trees were decorated solely with ornaments made in New Mexico, and I found a beautiful ornament made by a Native American artist. The prices are very fair, too. On my trip home, I saw the same brand of hot air balloon ornaments at the ABQ airport. They were half the size of the ornaments at The Shop but TWICE the price. Be sure to stop by The Shop on your trip to Santa Fe and pick up some beautiful souvenirs!

If I could give ZERO stars I would. The two women working there were absolutely horrible to us the entire time we were in the store. Either one of the women at any given point would start following us; one even stopped me in my tracks while I was near the door. My wife and I bought something and my in-laws cashed out behind us. Wife and I left the store and next thing we know is my wife is being told to come back in bc she stole something. (WHAT?!) We went back in, my wife emptied every single pocket of hers and there was NOTHING that belonged to the store. Then one of the women was pushing the narrative that my wife went outside and dumped whatever she "stole". I asked that they pull video footage to which they said they didn't have cameras. And, really, if there were so certain she stole something, why not say something while we were still in there?? Why would they let us leave?? They threatened to call the police in which we replied, "PLEASE DO!" We ended up leaving bc neither the two awful, ignorant women nor their store deserved any more of our energy. Oh, and all of their products are very cheap looking; a lot of the ornaments were plastic (which you can get cheaper on Amazon.)

I really hope the two are embarrassed when they were proved wrong… absolutely despicable behavior.

Great selection of unique items. The ladies who rang me up were extremely helpful. They even bubble wrapped and boxed my ornaments when they found out I was sending them as gifts!

A very nice couple has been running this store for about 30 years. Multitude of gifts to choose from. Bought some unique tin luminarias. Also got other Christmas decorations.
