Looking for a gift for yourself or someone else? Explore The Dancing Heart, an out-of-the-ordinary collection of gifts for the discerning shopper. Here you will find a wide range of carefully-selected finds including fine art, jewelry, desk accessories, gifts for the home, gourmet chocolates and pet treats. We carry functional and decorative art suitable for birthday, wedding, anniversary, and baby shower gifts.
With most products selected from artisans and cottage industries, the Dancing Heart shopping experience is a complete departure from the mass-produced and generic gifts available at department stores. Distinctly feminine but not simply beautiful, The Dancing Heart style appeals to the thoughtful shopper. Engraved jewelry carries messages of love, empowerment, and faith. Clothing, jewelry, pins and stickers inspire positive self-image in girls and women of all age; others stickers promote peace and social justice. A variety of gift books and blank journals and handcrafting kits encourage creativity and personal growth. Many of our handmade and hard-to-find greeting cards are collected to frame or keep as personal tokens.
The Dancing Heart carries beautifully framed lithographs from several internationally-known artists, as well as original work from regional artists. We have been fortunate to attract many local artists as well, some of whom are offering their work publicly for the first time. As a mosaic of regular inventory and special finds, shoppers tend to return frequently as the collection is always changing. We seek the fresh and unexpected, welcoming suggestions as well as introductions to artist and crafters.
Come visit us, either online or in our downtown boutique in the shopping and dining district of historic Havre de Grace. Look for the pink storefront on Franklin Street. We encourage browsing and our staff can complete your purchase with a shopping bag suitable for giving. Gifts are available for every budget, with many items available for less than $5. Both custom pieces and special orders are available.
