Craftland, Providence

Craftland began life in 2002 as a modest little holiday sale, but it quickly grew up into a year-round downtown Providence institution. This quirky, colorful shop overflows with gifts that are as unique as they are beautiful-handmade gems from Rhode Island and Massachusetts, plus a curated sprinkle of artistry and glorious oddities from across the country. Behind the scenes is a motley crew of creative types who know exactly how to keep things fresh, fun, and always a little unexpected.

With a finger firmly on the pulse of local talent, Craftland is a celebration of the region’s vibrant arts scene. Need something for that hard-to-shop-for friend? A standout piece of jewelry? A one-of-a-kind toy? A print that screams personality? They’ve got you covered, and then some. Their inventory is a treasure chest of everything from chic housewares to whimsical stationery to goodies so unique they defy categorization.

Even better, the team running the show is warm, welcoming, and clearly having a blast. They love what they do, and it shows-from the carefully curated displays to the genuine enthusiasm they bring to every customer interaction.
