GIFT IDEAS FOR DADS & GRADS

Wide selection of notecards for Dads & Grads

The Artisans Village Gallery has a wide variety of gifts and handmade art that will show how much you care this year.  Need a last-minute graduation gift?  See below for some inspiration. And don’t forget Father’s Day is Sunday, June 20th!

Right next to our register is a tower of colorful notecards featuring original works of art.  Pick up your Father’s Day card while you’re here, and a stack to encourage your college student to write home once and a while.

Still can’t decide what to gift?  We have gift cards too!  Stop by Thursday or Friday from 11 am – 5 pm or Saturday from 10 am – 3 pm.  We’ll be happy to show you around the gallery and help you find the perfect gift.

For the Chef…or aspiring culinary student.

Every King of the kitchen loves new utensils and serve ware.  Cooking is an art form, and the artful presentation makes it perfect with these unique wooden serving bowls, colorful pottery pieces, wood-burned kitchen utensils, pepper mills, and so much more.  Visit the Gallery for gorgeous serving trays, cutting boards, and other culinary gifts starting at less than $20. Maybe the kitchen needs some color?  Add a pop of brightness with one of these original pieces of art featuring cherries or strawberries.  (click on images below to enlarge.)

For the Captain, Lake Lover, or Adventure Seeker.

These are just a few of the beautiful water, boat, and outdoor scenes captured on canvas by our artists.  If you are looking for a new piece of art for that avid boater, swimmer, or beach bum, or outdoor enthusiast, you’re sure to find an original piece of artwork in the gallery.  Dress up Dad’s office or den with something he can enjoy for years to come.

For the Coffee Lover…who also loves candles.

These gourmet candles are sure to melt your senses when you take one whiff.  These soy-coconut-bees wax candles come in a variety of flavors, but the “Coffee Mill” scent is perfect for college-bound grads and Dads who can’t live without that morning cup of coffee.    We also have beautiful mugs to elevate that coffee & tea experience in many different colors, shapes, and sizes.

Other candle scents include “Front Porch Swing” for those college kids missing home… and “Claw Foot Tub” to keep the bathroom smelling squeaky clean.  Really.  Stop and smell these candles!

For the Pizza Lover.

Well, that covers just about everyone.  Any way you scoop or slice it, these tools can’t be beat.  Perfect for the pizza lover or ice cream aficionado in your life.  There is a wide variety of different wood/colors to choose from.

For the Mixologist.

For the Dad that loves a good cocktail and needs a little art for the bar or billiards room.  This colorful painting needs a good home ASAP!  Wouldn’t you love to drink in these vibrant colors all day long?!  We also have a selection of beautiful glass coasters, wine boxes, wine glasses with crystal-beaded stems, and other barware for the 21+ Grads and thirsty Dads on your list.

For the Bird Lover.

These hand-carved and painted wooden birds would make any bird-lover swoon.  Each bird is unique and many of the shorebirds sit atop a beautiful piece of driftwood.  Amazing variety of styles and sizes to choose from starting at just $25.  There are also original paintings and other wall art featuring our fine feathered friends.

For the recent grads that are ready to fly the coop…one of these charming necklaces with the tiniest little birdhouses would be a great reminder of home.  You’ll find other sparkly jewelry items at the gallery as well!  (click on the images below to enlarge.)

For the Gardner or Nature Lover.

These flowers will never wilt or die!  The perfect gift for the Dads that love to garden.  A wide variety of fine art paintings (and price-points) to choose from that feature the great outdoors.  There’s a also section of paintings from our Eatonton One-Day Paint Out that capture outdoor scenes from within a mile or so of downtown Eatonton. Many of these pieces were just painted last month in May 2021.  Students off to college may also appreciate something that reminds them of home.  Again…no watering required.
