Cielo Handcrafted — Attraction in Santa Fe

If you spend any amount of time shopping in Santa Fe, you know how delightful it is to stop into the Cielo Stores. In addition to the two shops on Guadalupe, three now exist on Canyon Road. One is very gifty--scented candles and the like. Another is a perfectly delightful children's shop. The third is Cielo Handcrafted. This one is totally different from the others because it features items from Latin America.

Cielo offers the finest quality merchandise in all its stores, and Cielo Handcrafted is no exception. If offers a few very informal, but high-quaity table linens in interesting colors that are neutral enough to blend or contrast with many place settings. I love the hand-made terra cotta pottery for plants. This pottery comes in many sizes and shapes, and some feature a funny face molded into the clay. My aloe plant is very happy in its new pot. If you love weavings, you will be thrilled with the selection at Cielo Handcrafted.

At the check out counter, you might notice small, round thin cookies under a cloche. Try one, then hope like anything that the boxes of larger ones are not sold out. They are delicious. The young woman who works in the shop makes them each morning before opening. I, for one, hope that she does not get tired of baking them.

If you love walking up Canyon Road like I do, wander up a little further than El Farol, and you will see Cielo...

Super cute gallery with both local and Peruvian artists. Everything from artwork (included well-priced prints), jewelry, clothing and accessories, ceramics, and beautiful wood pieces like cutting boards with turquoise inlay. So glad I stumbled in this place--was able to take home a variety of things at an affordable price point, all while still supporting local artists. Staff was also friendly...

This is such a cool store. It’s packed with amazing handmade items from Peru, and I loved the range and variety of products and prices. The store itself is also just beautiful - new things to discover around every corner. The whole place felt like a work of art - definitely...
