WCC (Who We Are)
Hello Everyone!
The Wheeler County Crafters and it's Specialty Gift Shop is the realisation of a
dream.
I have lived here for a fair number of years; and for a lot of those years I have
wanted to open my own business but nothing seemed to click. But then, in the
summer of 2007, this project fell into my lap. To detail how I got to this point
would take a few pages. So I'll just say that I have been privileged to discover so
many talented and artistic people over the years that I wanted a place for that
enormous talent, hidden away in Wheeler County, to be displayed and made
available to everyone. These artists consign their works to the WCC Specialty Gift
Shop where I loving displays and care for them. To the right please find a rundown
of people that have their works in my humble shop.
But that's not all there is to WCC!
(And yes, there's more!) .........
Other gifts are available as well. Candles and Candle holders, model ships (I'm a
coastal girl, what can I say?), wind chimes, birdhouses, incense, natural soaps,
picture frames, just to name a few. I do have fossils from our local fossil beds that
are fascinating and can be had for a small donation. As of this writing, I am hoping
to bring in to my shop a nice selection of greeting and post cards, wine & beer,
specialty cigars, and more. Keep checking back to this site for updates!
Thank you for perusing my website! I hope you enjoy it!!

beauty found in Wheeler County. You are the Wheeler County Crafters!
