“With These Hands”: Handcrafted gifts for you

Moose Jaw is now home to a new crafters shop at 33 High Street W called “With These Hands.” Crafters from across the province and beyond have been brought together to make your gift shopping easy. With These Hands carries something for everyone on your list. If you are buying a special gift or looking for a souvenir of your time in Moose Jaw, this is the store to visit this summer.

The story begins when Cory Montgomery found herself in a job she didn’t like. Her young son wanted to go on a trip to California which started a chain reaction. She thought creatively as to how she was going to do this for him. She had been making bath bombs for herself, so, she began to sell them at trade fairs and markets to help pay for their trip. A year later they boarded the plane.

It was quickly becoming apparent that her crafting income was better than her old job. She developed her client base and things became a whirlwind. Taking a leap of faith she jumped into the deep end with both feet and started selling her bath bombs full time. Not long after that, she opened her first store sharing her passion with others. With These Hands gives crafters a place to display their art and craft products and connects them with those who appreciate their value. She opened a second location in Yorkton. Finally, she opened the third location in Moose Jaw in May 2022. Finding Saskatchewan crafters was easy and she is proud to share their works with you. The shop is a collection of artists each with a unique story. Ask the staff about the rings made from antlers, spoons or feathers. Dive into crystals or peruse the homemade cards. Metal art, resin crib boards and firestarters for the men in your life. Crocheted tops, jewelry and neck warmers for the ladies on your list. They have a section of bracelets made by school children and cotton candy made by a local teenager. With These Hands offer customers more options for a healthy body from all-natural body butter, deodorant and lip balms to handmade reusable feminine hygiene products. Give yourself a bit of time to browse the shelves of homemade crafts from soap to nuts, and necklaces to personalized coffee mugs. This is a gifter’s paradise.
