In 1994, I purchased The Crafty Yankee, a local artisan consignment shop that had been in Lexington, MA since 1980. The previous owners wanted to retire, but having developed a following of local customers, they wanted to find someone who could continue their legacy in the town. I was a new resident of Lexington, but not unaccustomed to running a retail business, having spent several years in senior positions at Dillard’s and Federated Department Stores. A marriage to a long-time friend and Lexington resident, Richard Fields, brought me happily back to New England again. My goal in changing lifestyles was to work in an environment that allowed time to give something back to those less fortunate. That opportunity was The Crafty Yankee where I could have my own business.
Crafty Yankee showcases the work of many New England artisans, as well as creative designs from around the world. Our extensive jewelry and accessory selections accomodate all ages and tastes, from traditional to contemporary.
