Why we love it
Turtle Ridge Gallery-Boutique turns 40 this year! 🐢✨ This unique Ellison Bay gallery has been part of my life since childhood, and several members of my family have treasured Turtle Ridge pieces in their homes and closets for years. It is a true Door County gem—slightly off the beaten path, endlessly inspiring, and absolutely worth a visit.
The gallery is full of original art, mixed-media pieces, beautiful clothing, jewelry, gifts, and more—but I especially love their handmade leather purses. Each is designed and crafted in their upstairs studio, with gorgeous leather, artistic details, hand-painted or embossed designs, and shapes that make every bag feel like wearable art.
