This place is amazing! While in Pagosa Springs I was looking for an afternoon event for my nephew…read moreand I and we found this hidden gem. We took the pottery making class. It entails a "teaching and demonstration" portion followed by making your own pottery pieces, with assistance. There are other options available such as painting pre- made pottery, but the pottery making class was great. The staff is helpful and friendly and it made for a great afternoon. At the minimum, stop in and look at the art gallery ~ it is truly impressive.

The Wild Spirit Gallery was an interesting option and I spend a good amount of time wandering around their spacious, handsome, and diverse offerings. That includes original paintings and etchings, bronze sculpture, jewelery, woods, and various other stuff. Store staff pretty much left me along, although I knew I could quickly count on help if I needed it. Only a few items resonated with me, and the ones that did wouldn't fit in my suitcase. But if I pass this way again, I'll make sure to stop by.

This company is extremely sketchy. The "owner" doesn't seem to know what their own employees are…read morediscussing in emails, then tells me not to mention a supposed "deal" to the shop workers. Huge red flag. They sent me the wrong size squash blossom holder and then tried to gaslight me by claiming it was what I ordered--despite clear messages back and forth before shipment stating I have a HUGE squash and that the smaller case would not work. I returned the item unused, with the tag still attached, and was then accused of damaging it. That's impossible--I never used it. They claim to be a "small company," yet there are so many people involved that no one seems to know who is doing what or what's being sent to customers. I'm happy to share the full message thread with anyone who wants to see the receipts.

Maybe it's the old barn wood or the whimsical strips of bottle caps, but something just sucks you in to at least take a look. Offerings within this unique and handsome multilevel gallery run from fun to functional and everything in between. You'll find household items such as baskets, lamps, mirrors, furniture, kitchen items, wall art, and much more. I also like the wood accents, the practical displays, and offerings that tempt, but don't overwhelm you. The Old Stones Furniture especially impresses. If and when I come back, I'll make sure that I have more than a suitcase as I head out of town.
