We have made every effort to make this site intuitively easy to navigate. All clickable links are color-coded and underlined. On the left of every page, you will find navigation links that will quickly take you to your desired section of the web gallery.

You may purchase any item by clicking on "place in shopping cart" button and proceeding to the checkout. The checkout is a secure site, identified with a small closed padlock on your task bar. You may purchase as many items as you like. Tax, where applicable, and shipping within the continental U.S. are automatically computed and you may view those charges on your invoice before completing your purchase. For those ordering from outside the continental U.S., please get further information by going to FAQ's page.

We accept MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover cards. For non-credit card orders, please visit our FAQ's page for information.

Please note that most of our gallery offerings are one-of-a-kind handmade items that we display in our physical gallery in Burton, OH as well as on this website. As a result, sales are on a first come, first served basis. We will notify you via e-mail if the item you purchased is no longer available.

For your convenience, you do not have to register with a user name & password to make a purchase, although you may create one if you wish. The only purpose of the optional user name and password is to streamline subsequent purchases so that you don't have to fill out the name, address, phone#, etc. information every time you make a purchase.

We have made some considerable effort to depict the artwork on this site in as true-to-life color as possible, but images on different monitors will be slightly different. If you need further clarification about an item's color or other descriptive information, just email us in the contact us area and we will get back to you as soon as possible. If you wish to talk to a "live" person, please call our gallery during business hours, (440) 834-4226. We are open Thursday & Fridays from noon till 5:00 PM and Saturdays from 10:00 AM till 5:00 PM and by appointment.

For frequently asked questions, please visit our FAQ's page for answers.

We have made the purchase of small gift items easier by putting them into a separate category. Every item in the Gift Shop is priced under $50.00. You may go to Cynthia Gale's Gift Items for dream catchers, medicine pouches, rattles, prayer bowls and more, or to the Guest Artist's Gift Items for Suzie Knotek's Jewelry, Dolly Stevenson's Semi-Precious Stone Pendants, or Two Deer's Rattles & Dreamcatchers and more. Another place for great gift ideas is the Ceremonial and Cleansing Supplies, where you may find smudge items, blessing blends, sweetgrass, sage, soaps, sprays & teas.

We also offer Gift Certificates, which may be purchased and sent via email directly to your intended recipient.

You also have the option, for an additional reasonable charge, to have your purchase gift-wrapped and sent directly to your intended recipient. Just go to the Gift-wrap section from the checkout and fill out the form.
