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.

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.

I’ve been a fan of this store for some time. They have fun jewelry, unique home décor 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!

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.

My aunt took me here when I was visiting her, because she knows I like art shops and handmade things. They carried a great array of tiles by local artists, light-catchers and windchimes, and jewelry, as well as various other items of home décor. Nice for gifts, or for yourself! I’d like to return when I am back in MI; they have a blog and will ship the items featured there, but it’s not the same experience!

Great shop to find that special gift or housewarming gift. Beautiful hand made tiles from Michigan artists; beautiful jewelry. Interesting things for your own home or some one elses.

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.
