There are several different artists who have hand spun the glass into several different objects. You can see a few examples from the pictures I have listed. On certain days, on the lower level, a man comes and demonstrates glass blowing. You can view this and the glass museum for $10! If you are looking for a beautiful sentimental gift for a friend, family member, baby shower, etc, this is your place! They sell several different vintage glassware and other glass items from all over the world! Take a minute to stop by this lovely shop your next or upcoming visit to Oglebay!

Finally had the chance to stop by Little House of Books today! What a fabulous little book shop!…read moreThe small town feel and cozy ambiance reminded me of Stars Hollow (Gilmore Girls fans, anyone?). The place is adorably decorated and has a nice size, curated book collection with something to offer for everyone. I was greeted by the owner who was so kind and also rang me up. My books were packaged so nicely with decorative tissue paper too! I found two books here that have been on my list to grab: Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid and Crying in H-Mart by Michelle Zauner (singer in the band Japanese Breakfast!). Both books are paperback which is my preference, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that Crying in H-Mart was 30% off! There is an area for kids, a cafe area serving coffee and drinks, and a nice outdoor patio area as well. This place has it all! If you're in the area, be sure to stop by and browse!

The Shoppes at Quail Acres is a *small* shopping center that is located on a historic site…read more The property traces its name back to 1837, when William McAlpine Quail built the estate with a mansion, carriage house, barn, and several other buildings. Many of these buildings have been restored and converted into shops. The shopping center contains Pig and Fire House of Barbecue restaurant and about 11 specialty local businesses, including a tattoo parlor, nail salon, barber, hair salon, juicery, a K-9 trainer, and more. In the past couple of years, I have eaten lunches at Pig and Fire House of Barbeque and gotten a snack at Desire to Be Well Juicery. I recommend both of these businesses for their excellent foods, drinks, and service. The buildings look lovely, although I was told that one building lacked adequate insulation for the winter and summer. I deducted one star because I cannot shop for all necessities here.

There is a lift for wheelchairs. There is a play room to build Lego things. You can touch nearly every display, which is unusual. Please don't break them. There was a room we could not enter because some kids climbed under the rail and destroyed a display. This place is fun and fascinating and it was well worth, more than worth the three hour drive for us to get there. You really should go. I thought it was better than Legoland. On a side note...I had two GPS units running and they both told me I had arrived when I was still two blocks away.

Stifel Fine Arts Center is located in an old, unbelievably gorgeous mansion just off National Road…read more The grounds are beautifully manicured and there are some paths to walk around the garden and well-placed seating to take in the surroundings.

Oak Spring Center is a small strip mall…read more Currently, it has the following businesses: Big Lots store, Domino's Pizza, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, Hollywood Tans, Rent-a-Center, hair salon, and technical schools. During my visit, a few storefronts were vacant and were available for rent to retail and restaurant businesses. As you can see, this shopping center does not offer the best selection of clothing, accessories, or groceries. The parking lot was free and had enough spaces for customers.
