I love shopping at the Crafty Yankee! Not only do they have a lovely selection of gifts for almost every occassion but they also provide five-star customer service. They go the extra mile by offering free gift wrapping. On occassion, when I've needed a gift, but my work schedule did not allow me to the visit the store, they have shipped my purchase. It's wonderful to shop in a store where the staff is so friendly and accomodating. Pauline Alighieri

The Crafty Yankee is a treasure trove of a place. Artfully arranged, there is a diverse array of beautiful and mindful gifts, from the very simple to the more sophisticated. The quality of the merchandise is consistantly excellent, and is always interesting and creative.

I've loved this store for almost 30 years but today I bought a craft that was made in China. Not what I expect from the Crafty Yankee. This will be my last purchase.
