my name is Katie doucette

I'm Katie Doucette, an artist, designer, and lover of all things creative. What began in 2011 as a tiny gift shop in Douglas, MI has grown and evolved over the years, starting at our kitchen counter, moving into a pole barn studio, and now finding its cozy home at 322 Butler Street in downtown Saugatuck.

My work has grown from painting local signs to creating artwork that has found its way into shops and homes across the country, but my heart is still right here in this beautiful lakeshore town.

I'm so thankful for the friends, family, and customers who have supported me along the way. You make this little dream possible.

hey there!

Polka Dot Mitten is the kind of shop that's hard to leave. Original paintings, handmade goods, stationery, home decor, and a few things you didn't know you needed until you found them. Located in downtown Saugatuck and worth the trip.

and so is this shop

Saugatuck is better in person

We'd love to see you!

Came across this great little shop while walking around town. Picked up a few birthday/greeting cards which were beautiful and very reasonably priced. Happy to support a local artist in some small way.

When we visit Saugatuck again, we will be back!

So much original work that evokes a cozy, lovely, kind, rich aesthetic. The owner is so talented. My favorite store in Saugatuck!!

An amazing store full of creativity.
