We're More Than Gifts, We Craft Connections

Sand Shooters exists because we understand one thing very clearly: Family. It's the heart of everything we do, and the stories we cherish most.

You want meaningful connections with the people you love, beyond the clutter of everyday life. You yearn for lasting memories, shared laughter, and moments that truly matter. But mass-produced decor doesn't cut it. You crave something unique, something special, something that tells your family's story.

And that's where we come in...

Sand Shooters was founded in Pierre, SD, in the late 1990's by Weldon and Connie after a trip to Jackson Hole where they were introduced to some sand carved artwork. They immediately fell in love with the process and set out to learn how to do it for themselves. And learn they did. Sand Shooters started with beautiful and delicate crystal ornaments and a simple desire to connect families and friends through personalized gifts.
