I heart Gifted! I bumped into the shop in cute old Ballard on 5427 Ballard Avenue NW and felt like I was stepping into a fun, colorful playground full of new friends, must-haves, and play dates. Gifted is the place you want to check out for novelty cards, toys and kick-knacks you could ever dream. I’m talking jewelry, Star Wars cookbooks, miniature picnics, miniature sushi, explorer kits, and fairy stars… you name it Gifted got it. Stop by next time you’re in Ballard.
