Shop Moved from AV to Hesperia in FebruaryBy L.J. GamboneHesperiaStar.com

Hesperia, CA – Unique gifts and colorful garden art pieces are just a few of the things one will find at Kreative Klutter, located at 11938 Hesperia Road. In February, owner Debbie Ragains moved the store from The Village shopping area in Apple Valley to its new spot just south of Bear Valley Road, next to Harbor Freight Tools. She says she now has 2,500 square feet of space filled with some of the most unique items that aren’t likely to be found anywhere else in the area.

“To my knowledge, nobody here in the High Desert carries the variety of things that I do,” said Ragains, a formal postal carrier. “I have all kinds of gifts for everybody from your aunt and uncle to your son and brother. I even started bringing in things for nurses and caregivers, which you normally wouldn’t find at your local Wal-Mart or Target.”

Ragains says that along with stocking a large inventory of Tole painting supplies for decorative painting on tin, wooden utensils and furniture, Kreative Klutter also carries a number of popular collectible lines. They include Boyd’s Bears, Charming Tales and My Little Kitchen Fairies. Additionally, the shop sells Jim Shore collectibles, which Ragains says is one of the hottest lines among collectors.
