This treasure of the Artisans members' shop of beautiful and handcrafted items has been in operation for over 40 years! The new location of a few years is just a block or two down the hill from Main Street and a block away from the lively, fun local brewery. The rooms of the shop are full of lovely handmade jewelry, wood carving, fabric, ceramics and pottery, paintings, photographs and many other unique items. I've been wearing the gorgeous soft peachy-pink drop earrings since our trip and have received many compliments. The charming town of Abingdon has many places to stop and shop or dine -- definitely put this one on your list! Erin from Arlington, Virginia
