There is something for every budget in here from cards to art you won't find elsewhere, plus info on the artists in case you would like to contact them for more info, other items, etc. The windows on the side overlook Kedron Brook which makes for a beautiful setting for this shop. Definitely stop in!

Like many small towns I've visited before and grew up in there is always a store that sells…read morehandmade crafts. What makes this store better then most of the others is the variety and craftsmanship that can be seen throughout. It also doesn't hurt that you are greeted by the happiest and sweetest dog there upon entering the store. The store itself was beautifully maintained and organized. It had a flow to it that just drew you to ever corner. From the front display of handcrafted metal worked lights to the far back of the store's amazingly knitted coats and hats there is something for everyone to see and purchase for a country home. There is a wide variety of kitchen items such as cutting boards and cheese knives that match with the wood fire glazed pottery. Across from the pottery and kitchen items was a knitting selection of mushrooms and other out there figurines such as fish and sock monkeys. But, the crown jewel of the store in my opinion has to be the jewelry. These items which ranged from necklaces to ear piercings are all handcrafted and beautifully worked. Every case had the name of the crafter on it and the store owner could provide you with more info upon request. Overall this is 1 of 2 stores that should be on everyone's must view list when visiting the town of Woodstock, VT.

The owner told me that their galleries featured 16 local artists and 200 artists from all around the world (amazing!!!). I would never expect to randomly walk in a store to experience THIS MUCH arts!!! From recycle materials to metal works, they have it all! Of course, love this place so much I had to walk out with a purchase! Gallery in the Woods appeared to be one of my most favorite places in Vermont. I would highly recommend art appreciators, non-locals and locals to stop by for a visit. I guarantee that it will worth your time!

As of this writing, the cafe has only been open about 3 weeks. Everybody in this shop made you feel good about being there!
