WORTH A STOP IN & LOOK AROUND…read more This place is filled with lots of great products for your lodge/cabin/lake house. Fun place to walk through as they quite a variety of vendors. I stopped in 5 minutes before closing to pick up an item. However, it was out of stock. Salesperson was kind enough to put it aside when it came in the following week, for me to then come in to pick up.

In the back there is even a small wine selection, which was a fun surprise. I ended up grabbing a pair of loon socks and a postcard. Overall it is just a light, enjoyable place to look around, especially if you want something a little more unique than standard souvenir stores.

Do NOT waste your money. The Christmas villages are insanely expensive for something that probably…read morecosts $2 to make. We paid over $150 for a Christmas village, only for it to come made of cardboard and plastic straws. You read that right. PLASTIC STRAWS. Also, company claims to be small, family owned, and then products come poorly made from china. Doesn't make too much sense. Do not buy.

Proprietor David Johnston recently replaced the rush seats in our four ladderback chairs and we…read morecould not be more pleased with the results. David is truly a craftsman. And the job was finished in a timely fashion, just as promised. We had considered replacing the chairs, but for less than half that expense we were able to keep the chairs we've enjoyed for almost fifty years. We highly recommend doing business with The Craft Shop in Windham, ME.

What a fun little discovery on my way into town. I have passed this place a zillion times and had…read moresaid I would stop eventually. Well, stop I did, to see if they had a gift for a friend's birthday. First, I love any store that smells like balsam as you walk through the door. The scent makes me feel like a kid again. I'm not from Maine (have been here long enough to feel at home), but as a kid we used to drive here from Ohio and spend a few weeks going up and down the coast. The smell of balsam reminds me of these trips. Second, I was shocked by the variety they had. Maple syrup, Maine souvenirs, crafting supplies, wooden figurines, and antiques. The have a sign stating that they "glue chairs". I didn't know that was a thing, but apparently, it is... They also sell wreaths and Christmas trees during the appropriate season. And finally, the owners were as nice as could be. They had out hot chocolate for the kids, and they wrapped my little gift up neatly. This little shop is well worth the drive into town because of how darn cute it is!

----- Concise Review…read more Smell goods, coffees, cooking, temporary tattoos... friendly smiles... and much more ----- Longer Review We traveled to South Tamworth, New Hampshire, by way of Boston, MA and then North Conway, NH, for the wedding of our niece to her husband. The trip was brief - Thursday evening to Sunday, but filled with family, fun, and some exploring. On Saturday morning, while our son did homework in the room, while my wonderful wife was exercising, our daughter and I explored North Conway, NH. We visited Poppy & Vale, which is filled with many things for the home. They have candles and many other items to provide scents for your home. They have many fancy ways to make food... Moroccan cooking tangines, knives, pitchers, glasses, syrups. Wine items including a frog-shaped wine foil remover (removes the wine outside of the cork). Other items - t-shirts, stationery, soaps and more. And to our daughter's thrill... temporary tattoos, in the shapes o butterflies and more. Great store. ----- ----- -----

We won't be spending money there in the future and will let friends and family know to stay away from this store as well.

There are rooms of games, Maine items, body products and jewelry, and kitchen wares and jams. There are Christmas themed rooms, kids games, candles and glassware. You name it, they have it. The kinds of things offered are probably selected through the eye of the buyer, and, to be fair, there was a wide range of options.
