I vividly remember patronizing this location when it was called something else, so I'm not sure when it changed ownership. Nonetheless, it's a fun place to check out.
A group of us stopped in here the Saturday before Christmas. We weren't looking for anything in particular, just browsing. They had a huge selection of inventory, namely really funky yard art. I asked the owner if the metal art was made locally, and he informed me that it's not. He works with several different vendors. To me the art would have been much more appealing if it had been made locally. I think you could probably find similar items at other shops and flea markets, but they are cool nonetheless.
There's 2 floors worth of merchandise to see. I ended up buying a few ornaments from their upstairs Christmas Room. There's also a selection of Kalona, Iowa items for sale.
Definitely worth visiting if your in Amana because of the sheer variety. Reasonable prices, friendly, transparent ownership (he could have told me the metal art was made in Amana, but he didn't). However, if you're looking for something handcrafted by a local, you'll probably go elsewhere. read more
