Looking for those unique "Made in Newfoundland" products. This is the must go to place for them. Jam-packed with the highest quality, hand-crafted, unique items. If they haven't got it, they'll find it for you. Excellent, friendly customer service. Stop by and while you're at it, view the ocean and feed the ducks.

Busy Hands is by far, TOPS in my book. My husband and I stopped in to pick up a gift for me for my birthday. The Sea Glass Anchor was perfect, as the anchor represents a nsolid foundation for our love. I was wearing an anchor on a knitted sweater when we met many years ago. The service was so personal, we felt like old friends in the few minutes we were there. We absolutely recommend BUSY HANDS as the first place and the only place for your gifting and souvenier shopping! We most definitely will be back!

Love everything about this quaint little shop. You can find something for everyone, no matter how hard they are to shop for. It's the single best place (in my opinion) on the peninsula to buy a souvenir - either for yourself or a lucky recipient!

The biggest little store on the island. Love busy hands arts and crafts. Such an awesome place to add to your bucket list! Only an hour away from the capital city, not hard to miss! The selection of items in this little ocean side shop is unbelievable, from local hand made crafts to all-natural/local therapeutic remedies. Also it's a super friendly environment to visit, I visited once and now I'm what you would call a "regular". Also, if you do decide to swing by for a visit be sure to bring some bread for our little duckie friends, they're always out back and ready to meet new friends!

When you travel and love a place, you want to 'take it home with you', that feeling, to always cherish. Well....if you are ever in Carbonear, Nfd, stop at the little red shop on the water. The owner, Michael is the first treasure, then feast your eyes on EVERYTHING Newfie!!!! Arts, crafts, beautiful sea glass jewelry made by Michael. The shop is a gallery of artists and crafters from about a 50 mile radius, so yes, you can take a little bit of Newfoundland back home, and remember your visit to that very special place. AND........if you saw something and didn't get it on your trip.......you can order and he'll ship it to you!!

Hi Globetrotters, For an amazing shopping experience, you simply must visit Busy Hands Arts and Crafts. This cozy store is filled to the rafters with hand made treasures of the highest quality. Items are unique, charming, and practical. The owners are delightful, warm, and welcoming, and prices are surprisingly affordable. This shop is a true gem.
