Shop Local!


Ok, so I have to do some more shameless self promotion. In addition to my virtual jewelry shops , Capital City Craft Studio does have a tiny footprint in downtown Trenton. We're tucked in at the Classics Bookstore at 117 Warren Street. I can't think of a better place to shop. In addition to used books, many rare and unusual titles, you can find titles by local authors. And now, when we are all trying to save pennies, you can find books a great prices, plus you can even trade in your gently read titles for store credit. What could be better?
Right now, Capital City Craft Studio is featuring some of our products designed for children... dinnerware, picture frames and these really cool dolls, handmade in New Jersey. Why not stop by and take a look?

Twenty of the JET members will showcase a wide variety of fine handcrafted jewelry, from beaded creations to metal work.

Come find out what special Valentine sales our JETs are offering. Hope to see you there.
One of the shops that will be featured is Emotionaloasis , one of the team leaders who keeps us on our toes! Here is just one of her fabulous heart creations.



The Jet team members all have varied skills, styles and talents.  I had the pleasure to meet several of them recently, one of whom is Silvercanyons. If you are looking for a personalized gift, this is the shop to visit! There are many custom stamped sterling silver designs available, all at very affordable prices! Here is just one of the custom items available.
