Recently on our trip to Newfoundland, Canada we were searching for locally hand-made gifts to buy. We didn't know that this search would be so difficult. Luckily we found a Flyer for Cashel's Cove Crafts at one of the hotels or at the airport (I can't remember). Serendipitously our driving route took us near this store.
There is an incredible selection of home spun knits, quilts, slippers, t-shirts, key chains, ornaments, sea glass jewelry, ceramics, painted rock houses, candy, jams, teas and any many more items. 99% of these items are crafted by Newfoundland and Labrador artisans...which is a very refreshing sight to see when most other gift shops' items don the tag "Made in China".
If you happen to be in the Marystown area of Newfoundland, you MUST stop in to see Irene and her beautiful shop. Whilst there you can also visit her outdoor gardens, decks and footpaths to the beach. read more
