Though retail may seem like an afterthought at this concept shop (which is both a gallery and a custom-framing/gift shop) there’s plenty of things to spend dough on. Owner Donna Drimer fills the space with contemporary art from local painters and photographers (for six-week exhibits), allowing her to show off the store’s vast selection of framing supplies. In addition to earthy, handmade goods (pottery, glassware, wooden boxes, soaps and our favorite, a wallet fashioned from recycled candy wrappers, $25–$38), you can snag quirkier items, such as Jishaku ($22), a board game involving magnetic stones.

By far my favorite shop in LIC. Donna is an exquisite framer and the little goodies throughout the shop are to die for!

Donna and husband David are both knowledgeable and generous with sharing that knowledge. Beautiful products are reasonably priced. It is a joy to shop and just 'be" in Matted LIC.
