The shop for this local foundation, set up to help local community projects, has an excellent choice of mostly wooden crafts, from carved animals and canoes to notebooks. We especially liked the tiny box of 20 different Amazonian woods. If you come on weekdays and (sometimes) Saturday mornings, you'll see the local craftspeople at work.
