Hearthside Handmades

Visit Hearthside Handmades at Little Switzerland Village for your garden bird feeders, local pottery, dishes and baskets.

We have humming bird feeders from the old standard Perky Pet to elegant glass with copper enameling. You can even find a birdhouse or feeder featuring your favorite college or professonal sports team.

We are the home of THESE BLOOMING DISHES. Pottery, including dishes, plates, hanging pockets, mirrors and jewelry, made by Keith and Darlene Fletcher. In a unique process, flowers are pressed into clay. It is then fired, underglazed, glazed and then fired again. The result - a forever spring meadow to brighten any room.

Handmade baskets by Patti Simmons Creations are at Hearthside Handmades. From large to small, her walnut-dyed, muted-color baskets are a perfect accent to any decor.

Don't forget about our homemade jams, jellies and pickles and our handmade herbal soaps, scented candles, greeting cards, hand-carved wooden spoons, wooden boxes and chimes. Plus a wide variety of collectible Coke trays and hand-painted gemstone pendants by Bonnie Childers.

Hearthside Handmades was established in 1987. The owners, Keith and Darlene Fletcher, cater to anyone who likes and is looking for local and regional handcrafted works of art. Visit Hearthside Handmades and take home a piece of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
