Chalet in the Woods – Gig Harbor WA

The Chalet in the Woods is a garden-themed European gift and clothing store. The Chalet is set on 12 acres of gardens, woodlands, and pasture for an Oxford sheep and lamb flock.

We carry the entire Oleana clothing line, including sweaters, accessories, blankets, coats, and silk. Saint James clothing is made in Normandy, France, and includes clothing for men, women, and children. We have Iittala from Finland, Kosta Boda from Sweden, and other new and interesting artists in our gift selection.

The Chalet’s Christmas decorations are bright and festive, with many Scandinavian Christmas items.

I’m looking forward to meeting you; the Chalet is beautiful in all seasons.

The Chalet in the Woods is currently only available by appointment. We want all of our customers to have a pleasant and secure shopping experience. We are adhering to the most recent Covid guidelines.

Please contact us at (253) 851-8678 or chalet.laura@comcast.net, and we will do our best to accommodate you. I look forward to seeing you!

Nordic Christmases are filled with joy, color, food, and traditions.

We try to keep some items in stock all year for visitors who stop by. We like to be well-stocked with Nisse and Tomten, holiday linens, candleholders and candles, and the plethora of items that Scandinavians love and expect by the time Fall arrives.

Come join in the celebration!

Of course, we enjoy a nice blanket for warmth on our bed or to curl up with a good book, but a throw or blanket can also transform a room.

Organic cotton blankets in a variety of sizes and weights are available at the Chalet and are machine washable. We also have knitted alpaca blankets from Norway’s Oleana, lovely colorful woven blankets from Wallace & Sewell, and woollen blankets from Finland and Sweden. Blankets made entirely of linen are new to the Chalet.

Which option will you select? You’ll be relieved to know that the majority of them have a pillow to match.

What a year it’s been! We are working hard to keep everyone safe while still providing an enjoyable Chalet experience. We’re all wearing masks and trying to keep the surfaces as clean as possible. The only way to keep numbers under control in the shop is to only be open by appointment.

We don’t want to disappoint those of you who have driven hours to arrive only to find that someone else has arrived. I also know that some of you would prefer to order over the phone and have us mail it to you; we would be delighted to do so!

Some people who live nearby and only require a small item can pay over the phone, and we will place the package outside the door when they arrive. We are here to assist you!
