What a delightful shop on Main Street in Galena. You'll find many spiritual and metaphysical items…read morehere. There are pendulums; books introducing one to paganism, or Wicca specifically as well; puzzles; tarot cards; pins; diaries; greeting cards; and so on. Nearly half of the shop features supplies for fiber crafts, so of course you'll find yarn here but also yarn bowls, cross stitch and embroidery kits, and so on. I bought several beautiful rolls of wrapping paper, which I spent a ridiculous amount of money in but it was really gorgeous and I can't wait to give some gifts now! The folks here also run a ghost tour. I overheard the proprietor speaking with some other customers, and he mentioned they do a 90 minute walking tour. I was so bummed that I had plans tonight (even more bummed that those plans didn't really materialize!!). Next time I visit I would like to take a ghost tour. It was especially interesting listening to these folks talk with the owner because they themselves are ghost hunters, and they were asking about haunted places and said they like to take their own equipment out to explore. The store is not really accessible, unfortunately. There is a big step up from the sidewalk to enter. If you have mobility issues but can manage a large step up (probably at least 6-8 inches) it may work, but wheelchair users will not be able to enter. The owners seem to be cultivating a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere, so if you need assistance I'm sure they would be happy to help.

Let me say at the outset, that I adore small independent bookstores. This place was awesome!

They had a nice selection of books for all ages. A balance of best sellers, classics, and other books. To find such a gem in a small town in Iowa (without a big college) was a treat.

Pieces offered were functional, decorative, or both; I ended up purchasing a striking vase from a local artist (Pine Hollow Pottery). The owner (Joe Pinder) was available to tell us about the art, the gallery and upcoming shows and festivals. (His dog was also hanging out, and was very cute.) Pieces were surprisingly affordable (I'm used to the art shows in a different area, I guess, where products are more costly). Overall, I would definitely keep this place in mind on a return visit to Galena for art with a personal touch and a local flavor.

Also a Noggin in the British Definition is a unit of measurement versus the American Version which was our head in the dictionary. He was also very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of pottery and how it effected society during those contemporary times

There is a gift shop with all nice variety of collectable glass at reasonable prices. Be sure to see the Museum part section for a $5 donation.

The owner walks though with you and we learned a lot and enjoyed the beautiful collection, and bought some gifts too.

This building (gift shop is one room; museum is one room) features more than 4000 pieces of glass art, including a piece by Dale Chihuly ( a shelf art type piece, not my favorite here). They start off grouped by color, including varieties of Depression glass. There are some incredible vases and perfume bottles, tiny pieces with incredible detail; at least one Victorian paperweight; a collection of bride baskets (glass-handled ones and glass inserts only; the silver handles required too frequent polishing); a number of Murano Venetian glass pieces; a large selection of beautiful paperweights; a few small statues. Mostly blown glass, thought there is some cut glass in the gift shop. Tour finishes with a UV circuit around the room so the pieces of "uranium" glass are revealed. The gift shop ranges from superaffordable jewelry and smaller bottles to pieces which were obviously de-accessioned. If you like art glass (you know who you are), definitely worth a stop. This started as one woman's collection; our guide was her husband, who is also knowledgeable and will happily tell you about their trips around the world looking for beautiful glass pieces. Admission $5.
