Alright, gather 'round, folks, and let me tell you about my recent pilgrimage to Emporium 1905 in…read morecharming Corsicana, Texas. Now, I consider myself and my wife connoisseurs of quaint, her a maven of mercantile, and both of us true believers in the thrill of the hunt. And oh, what a hunt it was at Emporium 1905! Before I proceed though, I want to preface that the woman who owns this establishment is a kind and gentle soul. She is generous from her heart, but my review may lead you to believe otherwise so I want to put that out there! Stepping into this establishment is like entering a time machine set to "delightfully cluttered." Every nook and cranny is overflowing with treasures, or at least, what I thought were treasures. The air hums with the scent of aged wood and forgotten stories, and my inner magpie immediately started doing a happy dance. My eyes landed on a magnificent, tarnished tin- the kind that practically begs you to discover new uses for it. "Ah!" I thought, "a perfect addition to my study, bookshelf, allowing me to ponder the joys it has seen in its years from the comfort of my armchair!" My wife approached the owner, a woman whose smile was as warm as the Corsicana sun, and inquired about its price. "Oh, that?" She chuckled, a glint in her eye. "No, no, I can't sell that. That was a gift from a customer." Mildly dejected, but undeterred, I moved on. My gaze then fell upon a vintage lighted Santa vacuform gleaming like a golden beacon. Imagine him lighting my living room! The glow on the night. I could see it almost like a sailor sees the siren sitting on a rock in the waves...This," I declared internally, "is the missing piece to my retro-chic puzzle!" Again, we approached the owner, radiating enthusiasm. "And this beautiful Santa? I asked, my voice brimming with anticipation. She patted the dusty form affectionately. "Ah, the Santa. That's for my own personal collection. Can't part with that." At this point, a pattern was emerging. A rather frustrating, yet oddly hilarious, pattern. I spotted an incredibly charming, but somewhat aged cardboard chocolate box. Perfect for our next bookshelf decor. "This old chocolate box!" I exclaimed, practically swooning. "Is it for sale?" She shook her head, a look of almost maternal pride on her face. "That? It's just on display. For ambiance, you see." Ambiance, indeed! My ambiance was rapidly turning into an internal scream of "JUST LET ME BUY SOMETHING!" The shop owner, bless her heart, was a true curator of her own desires. Everything I coveted, everything my heart yearned to bring home, was either a cherished family relic, a personal indulgence, or purely for "ambiance." I swear, if I'd expressed interest in a speck of dust on the floor, she probably would have said, "Oh, that's from my friend Frank's shoes. It's been with me for years. Wouldn't sell it for the world." I eventually left Emporium 1905 with a few small, unassuming, and decidedly un-coveted table cloths that I'm fairly certain were allowed to be sold only because the owner hadn't formed an emotional attachment to them yet. But despite the comedic frustration, I have to give it to Emporium 1905. It's a truly unique experience. Just be prepared to fall in love with a lot of things you can't have. It's less of a shop and more of a museum of one woman's very excellent taste... and yea also her unwillingness to part with things. So, if you're ever in Corsicana and you're looking for a good laugh, and perhaps a lesson in detachment, do swing by Emporium 1905. Just don't get your hopes up about buying that exquisite whatever-it-is you absolutely must have. Chances are, it's already found its forever home... with the shop owner.

The best place to get actual craft items is at the Walmart, which has a really good craft section. The owner for some reason did not even mention Walmart as an option.

This makes me believe she does not like Walmart for some reason because surely she knows what craft items they have. So I am also disappointed that I was mislead by her.

I could have spent hours wondering around. The outdoor space is huge and set up with pathways. There were so many surprises throughout not only with their unique statues and sculptures but there was a cage with a giant live peacock who actually spread his tail feathers out while we were watching him. It was incredible! If you're looking for garden statues, you will find something you love. They have everything from animals, gnomes, dinosaurs, aliens, flowers and all types of things. They have benches, gliders and swings that are extremely sturdy made out of hardwood. Very high quality. There is every size planter you can image. They even had wood burning stoves! The plants and trees were fantastic! They had such reasonable prices on trees. We purchased 4 trees 5 years ago from a nursery in Dallas and the trees at Roland's were bigger and at the 2021 price we paid back in the day! You can tell the employees love what they do and rally care about taking care of the plants. Everyone seemed happy and asked us several times if we needed help. If you're in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Roland's is 100% worth the drive.

In what I consider a very interesting addition, Paper Leaves also carries a variety of plants. Waxahachie is already well known for its over 200 historic structures in five historic districts. Paper Leaves lies on Water Street to the north of West End Historic District, the largest district with homes built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. I love that Paper Leaves is SO Waxahachie in that respect! You step back in time here in high ceilinged book filled rooms with comfy, vintage and antique furniture, and just make yourself at home in such a special place. We entered from the back. The driveway and backyard look newly renovated and there are several parking spaces. The handicapped access to the business is in the rear and is smooth with a concrete ramp. The recent rain and wind has buffeted their lovely backyard, but there are two big areas for outdoor reading. They are shady with lots of chairs and look big enough for book clubs to meet. At the back, there is a small sunroom with lovely stained glass and three high tables and chairs set up for conversation or reading. The windows are enormous in this home with sun streaming in on velvet and brocade and velveteen sofas and chairs. Every room is a treat. A short stack of $1 Books and a (previous) dining room of used books were followed by what had been a parlor with a lovely fireplace and even more books. The foyer has the register and a very vertical staircase. The remaining downstairs room is an inspired Kids Books section with mysterious footprints on the floor and a bathroom! Paper Leaves has been altered to accommodate at least two (that I saw) spacious modern bathrooms with baby changing areas. The terrific front porch, the kind you always wanted, has a big ole swing and seating. There's used books and small exotic plants for sale out front. I saw a used copy of The Goldfinch for $7. The stairs are not steep. I mean, I'm 71 and had a hip replacement not all that long ago and I could make it up and down. Upstairs there's a very sunny reading room and all kinds of interesting paraphernalia on the floor and the walls of the landing. Then there's this astonishing windowed in sunroom. It's a lovely room with plants that have prices but no names. Just "Foliage." Yes, they can look them up. But, I knew a number of them anyway. Bonsai, many cacti and succulents, philodendron. Just gorgeous. All sizes. Hanging Baskets. Climbers. Teeny tiny little bitty plants in pots. Wonderful. I loved Paper Leaves. A very soothing, calming, good vibes place. But books and plants are my jam, so ... I can hardly wait to come back.

There are several places to sit down and read throughout the house. Go support local and get lost in the beauty that is this place.
