Fantastic gift shop! Everything is made by bay area artists which is an awesome angle. Very nicely curated collection. Ive been there a few times and always come away with a few pieces that have been very well received! Also, we sent our 5-year-old to an art-camp in the back room: the teacher was great and the art they made was frame-worthy! well, in that really-good-5-year-old-art way :-).

Only problem is they could use more space to have more cool stuff!

Bay made sells unique artistic goods, and has a number of very fun evening classes. Ive taken the calligraphy, print making, and screen printing classes and they were all fantastic!

If I could give 10 stars, I would! The owner is amazing inside and out. Shes open when she talks about why the shop is closed on a certain day, shes very honest with customers, and for having so many hand-crafted items in her shop, they are very well-priced. Definitely the place to go if youre looking for a bay-made item :)

Bay-Made does custom, local thank you gift boxes - and it SAVED me!I work at an awesome nonprofit [shout out to YLabs!] and I needed to put together ASAP-but-amazing thank you gift packages for donors. After a quick call to Bay-Made and fun back and forth to choose the goodies - problem SOLVED. The gift boxes were stocked within my price range, Bay-Made took care of shipping, and our happy donors were showered with local treats. It was so great working with and supporting a local business. If you are looking for thank you/ gift boxes in Oakland, seriously, look no further. Thanks all!

My absolute favorite place in the neighborhood to shop for gifts, plants, art supplies, and jewelry. Ive been shopping here since 2018 and have bought some things that really last — from a few planters and succulents to prints to a naturally-dyed scarf that I wear all the time. Bonus in non-COVID times, I took a fun drawing class here! Definitely recommend this neighborhood gem.

They always have a great collection of goods made by Bay area artists, ranging from art prints to pottery, to leather goods, etc. They also offer classes, which are reasonably priced and very fun. Ive done the modern calligraphy and block printing classes and really enjoyed them. Ive visited Bay Made at least 10 times and always find something interesting.

Always fun to stop by and check out the ever changing variety of fun and colorful artworks and supplies! There’s always something new that catches the eye, and many upcoming store events to come back for. What a great Lake Merritt neighborhood gem that showcases the talent and creativity of the entire Bay Area.

Nice shop on Lakeshore ave to do personal or gift giving ideas. Most goods are locally made and produced with SJ being the furthest from bay area. Creative wooden pieces and artwork are among some of the sought after for home furnishings. Theres not much for kids, but school supplies is high in demand. When was the last time you pick up a pencil sharpener made of wood or eraser made from eco-friendly materials? Its not limited to non-edible, but coffee beans by Bicycle Roasters and pure local honey can be had too. Dont be surprised if you see other local companies that sells their ware. Thats why its Bay-Made. Theres something for everyone even if you dont plan on shopping for anything just yet. The thought of knowing theyre there will increase your chances going back. Personally I love this type of shops because its community driven and support local artists.
