12. Nick Mayer Art
Whether you're searching for prints, cards, apparel, posters, or other art media, Nick Mayer is considered by many to be one of the top outdoor sporting art providers in the world. His representations of various species of fish and other aquatic wildlife are second to none, and in our opinion should hold a unique place in every gift shop as they attract a different clientele and are highly likely to "hook" a sale.
13. Notes and Queries
Notes and Queries sells fine imported greeting cards, stationary, gifts (planners, calendars, etc.), gift wrap, and bags. We especially enjoy their 3D pop up greeting cards.

Izzo also has a coffee table book featuring, in her own words, "ocean sights and city lights". If you appreciate Rhode Island photography, or photography in general, then you need to take a look at RI through the eyes of the this gifted photographer and designer.
15. Sun Day Greetings
Sun Day greetings is the creation of husband and wife team Alan and Brenda Kellman. Sun Day's designs are bright and friendly, and focus on some of our favorite things, such as food, classic cars, and animals. Sun Day has a great variety and could be that "anchor" greeting card line that you've been seeking.
16. Frank Galasso
You simply cannot have a conversation about artists from Rhode Island without mentioning Frank Galasso. Galasso's artistic style is instantly recognizable upon his series of mugs and prints. Galasso is known throughout the world for his sports cartoons, but also has a great series of Rhode Island lighthouses that would surely be a hot seller in any coastal RI gift shop.
17. The Card Bureau
The Card Bureau takes a different and intimate approach to their card and gift development, offering items that can be considered reverent with a touch of humor, and a heavy focus on the female owned company's believes on social justice with the occasional nod to their personal heroes.
18. Party Partners
Much like our friends over at Legami, Party Partners is a division of Pictura. That, however, is where the similarities end, as the Party Partners line brings their own distinctive whimsical style to serving your wholesale party supply needs. Whimsical is a word that we've used a few times already on this site, but we feel that it is completely necessary in this case because Party Partners bestows upon us not one, but multiple unicorn related items in their line. Their unicorn headbands, banners, and unicorn shaped plates are without question the nicest unicorn party items we've seen, and that's just getting started. Party Partners ALSO provides unicorn pinatas and candles. The point that we're trying to make is, if you are having a unicorn party you wouldn't even need to look anywhere else for your supplies, and Party Partners can help you in such a way when dealing with many different categories, not just unicorns.
