I was recently in the cute Clarion PA area on a lovely road trip with my husband. One day our…read morenature walk plans were thwarted by rain, so we decided to hang out in the village. While he did some work at Michelle's Cafe across the street, (great coffee and free wifi!), I dodged a few rain drops to do some some shopping. Main Street Emporium can be found inside Dan Smith's Candies (https://www.yelp.com/biz/dan-smiths-candies-and-gifts-clarion?hrid=PcJVc3SHwlsRnHN9fUcaYg). When you enter the candy store, the Emporium is straight ahead and all the way to the back, both upstairs and downstairs, with more merchandise located on the upstairs level. This is a store comprised of a variety of independent seller stalls, selling mostly second-hand goods. The store isn't huge, but was bigger than I expected it to be upstairs, with a couple unforeseen turns into a few different spaces on the second level. The range of seller booths contain a mishmash of antiques, decoratives, toys, games, collectibles, crafts, housewares, fashion accessories, jewelry, apparel, books, artwork, and a little bit of everything in between. There is even a live houseplant seller! That was a first; I have not seen live plants in this kind of store before. One of my purchases was a lovely potted spider plant for just five bucks! I also found an authentic Russ Troll for five bucks that had a shirt on that said "40 is not old if you are a tree."--this was perfect to go with my turning-40-brother's bingo bag gift I got him for his birthday! One oddball thing I always look for when I'm in a store like this too are topless mermaid figurines--and I found one for a buck! (Yes, they must be topless, because as a woman I know how ridiculous it would be to wear an uncomfortable seashell bra all day, and am certain a mermaid would never do such a preposterous thing, haha.) To round it out, we got a nice pile of vintage sci-fi books for two bucks a piece, something my husband and I collect. We found some great titles, including the full "The Fuzzies" trilogy! Checkout for the Emporium is the same counter as Dan Smith's Candies. If you are buying both Emporium goods and candies/gifts from Dan's, the friendly counter staff will ring you out at the same place. I had a really nice time rainy-day-perusing the shelves at Main Street Emporium. When we're back in the Clarion PA area, I'd surely stop in again to see what's new!

Jeanne lives in this area and knew that if she loved this place than I would! And she was right!!! It is right down the road from our friend Buster's venue the Cook Forest Skillsino, so the location was perfect for me to remember. We were warmly welcomed by the owner Linda. She was so genuine and friendly. Jeanne has known Linda for a long time and she explained that I was visiting from Florida for the first time for hunting season. During the lake effect storm hitting us, the venue had a magical effect like a big warm hot chocolate in front of a fireplace while hanging out with friends. The venue is a lot larger than I thought and every section of the store is unique. I can explain a few: a room full of pickles, pickle related items, jams, fudge, chips, and yummy snacks; a section full of merch about pickles like t-shirts, pens, stickers, ornaments, etc. ( we bought a t-shirt and stickers, chips , a 2 pieces of fudge (we ate the yummy fudge in the car); a section of nostalgic Smokey the Bear merch ( yes, of courseI I bought a t-shirt); a section is nostalgic toys and art (I bought a Coca-Cola polar bear keychain); a section with puppy treats; a section with Nik knacks and home decor; and several craft collections from local artists like wood burning ( I bought a keychain) , jewelry, wallets, purses, and yes, I had to buy a baked potato microwave bag... because I always give mine away and I again need one for myself! Did I get to look at everything? No, it's that much cool stuff! 32,000 sq ft of awesomeness!!! But the best and priceless treasure was the owner's hospitality and genuine friendliness. We had a few more adventures to explore, being this was our first priority stop... and I have to say, as Jeanne and Linda caught up on their latest news, I felt like part of their warm friendship as I shopped around. Please don't miss this treasure chest full of goodies and the opportunity to meet this sweetheart of an owner! Maybe next time, I will meet the other owner, Erik, who is blessed to be married to such a wonderful lady :) Even if I don't win big at the Skillsino, I know I had a guaranteed win stopping at this venue !! Happy Holidays, everyone! God bless you!!
