Indian Village Gift Shop — Local services in Four Corners States

We actually stopped by The Indian Village Gift Shop back in April on our cross country trip from Long Island, NY to fill up our tank & use the restrooms & soon saw the sign that we needed to purchase something, which I can understand. My husband picked up a newspaper & a bag of chips, but I noticed the store full of American Indian /Southwest items 😍 so I quickly went in to look around. I left there with many souvenirs for our kids & grandkids & a few for myself. In particular, a pair of little flowered earrings with a blue stone (not turquoise) on a post that I loved!
