What makes it a Rhody Gem?
Ever find yourself stopped at the light en route to URI and wonder what’s in that charming white house alongside the road? It’s Fayerweather House, a nonprofit craft guild and any visit is like stepping back in time – from the 18-inch floorboards and three-sided fireplace to perusing a wealth of hand-crafted, hand-knit, hand-hooked, and hand-turned items – made by the local artisans of the Fayerweather Craft Guild. Find cribbage boards, toys, pickles, jams and jellies, and so much more. Whether shopping for yourself or for a gift, knowing that the items for sale are unique and hand-made with care by local artists makes each purchase feel special. Reopened for season 61 on April 2; save the date for their Outdoor Craft Fair on April 25 from 10am-4pm (rain date April 26).
