Hi, my name is Linda and I was born and raised in Saint John! I guess you can say that crafting is in my blood. When I retired, my beading started as a hobby and has now turned into “Bead Creations”. Sadly, I can no longer pass a bead store without going in and seeing what’s new. My beadwork is intricate and has evolved over time but I love being able to put together inexpensive pieces that anyone can wear and more elaborate pieces that are perfect for special occasions. And when my eyes are too tired to look at one more small bead, I work on my little gnomes. I just love making the perfect outfits and customizing them! I’ve done nurse gnomes, rocker gnomes and even a biker gnome. I have even been known to find the perfect little guitars or shoes on my travels. My favorite part about the Kingston Farmers Market is all the amazing people I meet, the fun custom projects and of course the other vendors that I have come to know and love!

Hi everyone, 

Meet Raffie & Rhyleigh. These two are the Quality Control Managers and the reason Pampered Pups Pantry was created. The top priority at Pampered Pups Pantry  is to supply high quality all natural healthy dog treats using high quality ingredients! We treat your best friend like our best friend!

Rhyleigh will eat anything (and everything) but Raffie (doodle) has a lot of food sensitivities. I couldn’t find a treat or food that agreed with his tummy, so I started researching and making his food/ treats mysef and BINGO! I made these homemade all natural peanut butter pumpkin biscuits for him and not only did he LOVE them, they agreed with his tummy and he hasn’t had a problem since! 

I soon discovered that every dog I fed them to, would go crazy for them and people started wanting them for their dog…. Pampered Pups Pantry was an idea that came alive, rather quickly. Since beginning this hobby/ dog bakery, the products have increased to include gluten free options, as well as, pupcakes, special order birthday cakes  and all natural organic paw balm, bandanas, pet beds and blankets and krinkle cat toys. I love being creative so I don’t see it ending here. New products and ideas will be updated regularly.  

My goal is to not only provide healthy treats for dogs but to also support less fortunate animals in need of medical care and second chances! This is why a percentage of sales will always be donated to an animal charity. I have always loved animals and if I can help them by providing healthy snacks that they love while helping animals in need then I have reached my goal! 

Thank you to all my wonderful customers for supporting us (Your purchase matters!) and to all the wonderful selfless people who help these less fortunate creatures get medical care and find forever homes! Red Head Strays is one of them! They do so much and save so many lives! I think they are amazing humans!  Hence, why I chose them as my animal charity of choice! Thank you for helping me to help them!

Valley Gift Shoppe came about naturally out of my struggle to find the perfect gift for my family and friends.  An expression of love as personal and unique as they are.  So began my journey of creating hand crafted products in small batch made with quality ingredients. As I continued to expand my skillset I found myself with more creations than I could gift.  I expanded my line by creating new products as a way to express support of social causes.  We are proud to donate a percentage of sales on every purchase from our Consciousness Collection
