According to the Department56 corporate store locator, there are some matches. Now we just need some buyers to comment with a recommendation:

- Cards N Such, Topeka, Ks
- Stitch On Needlework Shop, Lawrence, Ks
- Ball Brothers, Atchison, Ks
- David's Briar Shoppe, Des Moines, Ia
- Dillard's, Inc., Des Moines, Ia
