Great little eclectic art shop in downtown Northville. For a small footprint this business packs a big punch with a variety of items ranging from knick knacks to glassware and my favorite their hand made/painted ceramic tiles. These tiles which were the focus of my trip can be used as standalone art pieces, high end artistic back splashes, accent pieces and the list goes on and on. I am considering buying a beautiful Calaveras tile (Mexican Day of the dead celebration represented by colorfully decorated skull) for the tequila station I have in my basement bar. This is just one example of the some of the uses for these artistic tiles as they can add beauty in so many ways to your home. Overall I am a big fan of this business. If you enjoy browsing unique artwork and/or are looking for some accent art to add to your home than this is a business you should definately check out the next time you are in downtown Northville. read more

The service is great. Very personalized. She helped me pick out the perfect birthday gift. (A beautiful art tile for her collection) They don't have a huge selection of tiles. But they do display many artists and designers and all at a good range of prices. Definitely come in and shop. read more

First time here but not the last! Super cute shop with a variety of things just begging to be given as gifts. I could have spent an hour just browsing the shelves. It was a sunny day despite the cold so it was nice to duck into the little glass covered outdoor area. read more

I came here with my aunt years ago and she brought me again recently; it's nice to see that it's still going, even with the pandemic. So many great items for gifts, including a lot of Michigan-centric ones. I got a very cute necklace with a thistle pendant and some Michigan art postcards. Definitely a place yo check out in downtown Northville! read more

I have never left this store empty handed!!! They will always have something you just have to have, either for yourself or someone else. In fact, I passed On some Halloween earrings here in October and never forgot about them and the woman at the register said she'd try to retrieve them for me in January! (So just buy it!) This time my daughter picked out candles, (Faygo Red Pop & Detroit is for Lovers), and I found the BEST Detroit skyline cloth dinner napkins by Giftee ON SALE! And I think we are going back for an artist rendering of the Faygo, lol! In Covid times, they have to restrict the # of ppl in and out so they set up a "warming shop" in the street so you can pre-shop and stay warm! read more

See all

This was the cutest, friendliest, downtown shop. There are so many items, made by local designers. This is the place to go, if you're looking for something personalized, unique, as well as items that represent Michigan in all of its glory. read more

Surprised I've never reviewed this sweet store! They have great gifts! Original and unique, and so much stock! The staff was really friendly. You have to stop in and see their tiles. They have several different artists, including Pewabic. Gifts for everyone! read more

Wowza! What a myriad of Michigan made and Michigan themed gifts, decor, home goods, jewelry, soaps, art....the list goes on and on. And it's not all Michigan, there's plenty of "regular" (but highly creative) wares in every nook and cranny of this cute little corner shop. The store name accurately sums it up, your eyes will be doing the happy dance! There's so much to take in! Staff are helpful and knowledgable but not pushy. Prices are fair for the quality and there's something for budgets of every size. read more

I love the Dancing Eye Gallery! Their wide selection of unique gifts means I can always find a gift for whomever I'm shopping for. This Christmas, probably a third of my gifts were from Dancing Eye. I particularly appreciate the shop's large selection of ceramic art tiles. read more

Stopped in today while perusing Northville and enjoyed our short visit. There was A LOT to see in this small space, and we could have easily spent more time here if we weren't in a hurry to get down to Detroit for a sporting event. I really liked the crochet animals that were for sale, although they were priced pretty steep. I also thought they had some neat magnets, jewelry, and night lights. My boyfriend loved the Michigan state glasses and accessories. Worth stopping in if you are looking for a Michigan made craft for a gift, or to spruce up your space. read more

This store is so unique. Whenever I need a special gift, I know I can find something outstanding here. From the jewelry made locally to the tiles and dishes, it is all very charming. Be sure to check it out. read more

This jam-packed crafts gallery focuses on works by Michigan-based artisans. The variety of works is astonishing. Here you will find Pewabic tiles, unique tee shirts, great handmade jewelry and beautiful decorative items. I rarely suffer from sensory overload while shopping but here the options were so varied and high quality that I walked out empty-handed. I was actually wracked by indecision! This gallery is now a regular stop when we visit the Detroit-area, and it is surely worth a stop for special gifts for yourself and others. read more

The lady who runs this store is crazy. I politely entered her store said hello and looked around (with my mask on) and as I was leaving pulled it down to my chin. I walked about 50 feet down the sidewalk and was stopped by the owner, she got in my face and told me how rude it was that I took my mask off while leaving the store. She exposed herself more by hunting me down. Typical Karen. Store sucks as well. read more

This is an unique gift gallery off of Main St. in Northville. I stopped by because of the neat t-shirt I saw in the window, It was emblazoned with the slogan, "Don't Mess with the Mitten". The t-shirt came in all colors and sizes and would make a great gift for the ardent Michigander in your life. While I was there a matron was choosing tiles for her kitchen remodel. Ceramic tiles are a specialty in the shop. I saw the traditional Pewabic tiles as well as tiles from other Michigan artists. There was a neat collection of Michigan lighthouse tiles that would look great in a family room. Metalwork, jewelry, fiber arts, this store has alot to delight the discriminating eye. read more

This little shop is a great place to find a housewarming gift, a unique decoration for a boring room, or a fun conversation piece for a party. The store is conveniently located at the corner of Main and Center in downtown Northville and always has people in it. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Despite its small size, I can spend quite a while looking around at the many interesting items that they carry. I would probably classify this as more of an upscale gift shop than an art gallery, however, that doesn't take away from its charm. Bottom line, if you need something unique, check it out. read more

This place was really cute. So many little mementos to choose from. Classic little handcrafted art shop. Loved the sarcastic humor on some of the items. We left with a cute little memento with an oak leaf design to hang on our wall. Some things pricey but nothing different than other shops like this. Adorable! read more

I've been a fan of this store for some time. They have fun jewelry, unique home decor items and fun gifts. A few years ago, I bought some sterling silver handstamped initial charms and returned recently to try and buy another to match. They don't sell the charms in store anymore, but the salesperson offered to contact the original local artist for me to see about whether she could make another one. The artist agreed and offered to make the charm by the next day so I could pick it up before leaving Michigan to return home to California. In order to ensure that the charm matched, the salesperson even had me take a photo and send it to her, which she forwarded to the artist. I was terribly impressed by the amount of effort they went to to help me when they could have simply said that they don't carry the product anymore. I recommend a visit if you're in the area! read more
