Ancient Dragon Antiques is another fun little stop right in downtown Clinton. If glassware is your…read morething this place has TONS of it! Don't get me wrong.... It's a typical antique mall style setup with booths belonging to different owners so you will find anything and everything. Not just glassware. The main part of the store is kind of an L shape with a small room cut out on the center that showcases a large display/selection of uranium glass... Probably the biggest collection I've ever seen all in one spot. It's truly impressive. Prices once again vary with the vendors. Some items are high, some are at market, and there are some good deals to be found too. I took home a black glass flower stem frog. I collect different ones of these and use them as pen holders etc. on my tables at home and my desk at work. Definitely not what they were designed for, but it's how I repurpose them...! If you're into thrifting and antiquing... Make sure Ancient Dragon Antiques is on your list if you are in the Clinton IA area!

This very personable staff greeted me immediate after I entered the store and helped me select an appropriate shirt for my father... and some cool socks! I went browsing through this boutique after a stop at Flavor Flav's Chicken (really delicious!). They also carry women's clothing, despite the name. The items are very well priced considering the quality and materials used. Avoid Wal-mart, shop Boegel's!

When I found a hand painted quilt top I had put away I knew I wanted Laura to finish it for me. If I could still quilt my own wall hanging I would have wanted this horse head drawn and enhanced not just an over-all background quilting done. I explained that to Laura and she understood my vision. She returned the finished piece quickly. It was all I could hope for and beautifully done. Cost was what I expected for the amount of stitching that was done,very reasonable. I knew Laura was talented, skillful, and understanding. This was proven by her work. I would recommend her work to anyone who wants a beautiful quilt done with love and care. Please let her express her artistic insight and create a one of a kind quilt for you.

Having a really hard time understanding the 2 negative reviews. Had a great experience there, seems…read morelike one bad review needs to take a class on small business, and the other bad review could've been avoided by doing some more research, as well as asking some questions about the dealerships practices and process. Anyway with that outta the way, I'll talk about my experience. I walked in looking for a new handgun, I chatted with the owner (who I didn't think looked like the tiger king whatsoever?) who was very friendly. Chatted about calibers, politics, gun sizes for CCW, and then I asked to see a few pistols. He immediately grabbed what I requested, didn't flag me, proper trigger discipline, and set them on the counter, allowing me to view them, check the sights. Then he ran me down what each gun came with. I asked to look at a few more options, also not a problem. And made a decision on a nice Steyr 9mm. They got up the case and rang me up, he handed me the paperwork and was extremely clear on what needed filled out and where. At this point he handed me off to his wife who turned in the paperwork for a background check while he went and helped another customer out (with what sounded like was advice on buying through a private sale, basically he was helping someone who wasn't buying anything from him through what a private sale should look like, which in my mind is both excellent being a good person and a great way to earn a customer.) my background check went through within 2 minutes, and I payed for the gun. The owner then handed me some paperwork and a pamphlet for a free online course to get certified for my concealed carry permit which he explained was a good thing in case I brought the pistol with me to other states.... After the sale, you know, the part where most people/businesses smile and wave and say "see you next time"? I call that going above and beyond. On a final note one other review says that the owner had his FFL revoked so his wife has to do the transactions. I kind of doubt that, but you know what? Even if that's true, the ATF will revoke an FFL for an offensive social media post, or putting a stock on the back of a pistol, they change their rule book every two weeks and their opinion on a persons qualifications don't really mean much to me. Anyway, sorry about the text wall, I was just pretty frustrated seeing negative reviews that didn't really sound like they were the owners fault. 10/10, they have my current and future business. Hell I might go tomorrow for a rifle.
