Welcome to J. Matheson Gifts, Kitchen & Gourmet, where we dish out quality every day! Two stores...two truly unique shopping experiences.

Our Mission
We strive to offer superior quality to our customers by providing unique and distinctive styles, colors and materials. Our knowledgeable staff prides itself in learning more about your needs in order to improve our services.

Our goal is to offer the best selections available anywhere – in fact, we continuously search the country for the special items we feature. We also believe good customer service is paramount.

In 1991, longtime Everett, WA resident, Judy Matheson, founded J. Matheson Gifts with a purpose in mind: to create a design resource featuring the most sought-after home accessories and personal gifts, and to offer the highest possible level of customer service. Located in downtown Everett, the family-run store has become a valuable personal resource for our many discerning customers.

Our original store, J. Matheson Gifts, carries an ever-changing selection of crystal, barware, distinctive home decor & accessories, bath products, children's clothing and educational toys. We also have fresh new ideas to help you create your own wedding invitations, birth announcements, birthday invitations, anniversary celebration, or any special event. Find your colors, your style and your fonts and create each piece for a seamless event that's all your own from start to finish.

For help choosing just the right gift, look no further than our staff. This is what we specialize in, after all, and our staff are proud to have earned the prestigious Snohomish County Customer Service Award of the Year. Our personalized Business Gift Services offer unique gifts and accessories for all business occasions - new client, commemoratives, employee retirement, customer appreciation, employee recognition and more.

Our Kitchen & Gourmet Shop opened in July 2005, and we’ve whipped up a shop full of the latest and greatest cooking tools, the finest cutlery, cookware, gadgets, bake ware, gourmet foods and linens. We are even bringing chefs from well-known Four Star restaurants to our new in-store cooking school to offer classes in everything from beginning cooking to expert level cuisine.

Both shops feature a bridal registry and complimentary gift-wrapping service. Shipping is also available upon request. We invite you to discover for yourself the
J. Matheson Difference. Come in and see us today!
