Local Business Spotlight: Wandering Daisy in Breckenridge

If you've walked the south end of Main Street in Breckenridge and stopped dead in front of a shop window, there's a decent chance it was Wandering Daisy. The gift shop at 326 S. Main St. has become one of those places locals actually shop at, not just a spot for tourists to grab a magnet on their way out of town.

What Is Wandering Daisy?

Wandering Daisy is a women-owned gift shop run by best friends Miranda Murphy and Genevieve Siegert, who bought the business together a couple of years ago. They've built it into something genuinely worth going out of your way for: over 100 artists represented on the shelves, and nearly all of them from Colorado. A good chunk are local to Summit County.

You'll find pottery, jewelry, handcrafted gifts, romance novels, and plenty of things you didn't know you needed until you saw them. It's the kind of shop where you go in for one thing and leave with four.

The Art and the Artists

What sets Wandering Daisy apart from a standard gift shop is how intentional the curation is. Local artists like Meg Quirk of Quirks of Art Co., Ingrid "Kiki" Davis of Simple Art Studio, and Alicia Clark-Fulcher of SpicyHeart all have work there. If you're looking to bring home something that was actually made here, this is your place.

It also means every time you visit, the shop looks a little different. Artists rotate, new pieces come in, and the inventory evolves with the seasons.

More Than Shopping

Wandering Daisy hosts a monthly romance book club called the Dead Romantics Society, which meets the second Thursday of every month. They also offer private shopping experiences, DIY arts and crafts classes, and artist pop-ups throughout the year. If you're looking for something to do with friends or guests visiting from out of town, this is worth checking out.

Summit County Recognized

Wandering Daisy was voted the best gift shop in Summit County in both the 2024 and 2025 Best of Summit contests. That kind of back-to-back recognition means something in a county that doesn't have a shortage of places to shop.
