Gotta Have the Funk

New Hope, Pennsylvania is a popular East Coast tourist area known for its style and eclecticism and the shop that epitomizes all things eclectic is Funky Stuff at 87 South Main Street.

Inside you’ll find homemade jewelry, handmade candles, essential oils, herbs, incense and body mists as well as an exclusive product line in Nature’s Soothing Essentials. In addition, there are a variety of concert poster reproductions, sepia prints, stickers, patches, art and world instruments! Unlike many stores these days, you’ll actually hear some good music playing inside. How refreshing is that?



Owner and operator, Jessica Hammer has resided in the region for 21 years, initially working with Spinsters Records until its closing, after which she started Funky Stuff.

During Covid, Jessica remained closed for more than a year but her business has reopened and enjoys support of both locals as well as out-of-towners as she looks forward to a new season.

“Since I’ve reopened, the customers have been great.” Another popular attraction of the shop is Lovey, a rescued dachshund. One of Jessica’s mantras is ‘Reuse, Recycle, Repurpose’ and she often refurbishes old furniture and other items that can be seen in the shop.



So when you’re feeling funky, stop by and meet Jessica (and Lovey) and check out their enchanting creations. That’s the stuff!
