HOLIDAY DECOR AND MORE!…read more This is a quaint little shop located in downtown Dahlonega, GA. The owner's granddaughter was sitting outside and monitoring sales on this Sunday during the Gold Rush Festival. She said that her grandmother had owned the store since before she was born, (approx. 20 years). She is an artist who loves to paint gourds. (fall and Christmas inspired), scarecrows, signs and other interesting items for the home. We wanted to purchase a couple of the standing scarecrows and gourds but did not want to carry them around with us since they were rather large. Although there were other gourds at the festival, hers had great detail and appeared very lively. We will definitely have to return in the next few weeks to collect some of the cute home decor items to add to our ever growing collection. Can't wait!

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT?…read more This is a great little gift shop that has an eclectic mix of items.

I don't know where to start...it's been hours after my visit and I'm still traumatized. If you like…read morehorror films, you might want to take a stroll through this gem of a disaster. It will not disappoint if you can get through the front door, which is cluttered like a hoarders house. Once we walk through the tiny path between all the "antique gems", a deep awakening in our spirits happened. A spine, chilling moment. Something you would see on 60 minutes episode before a person was kidnapped. Suddenly a man from the back yelled out " you want a shot or a hot chocolate?". With fear and trepidation, we said no and he asked us if he scared us... we said "yes". We knew we had to get out of there fast. As we were trying to "escape", I saw a cat and tried to soften the awkwardness and talk to an older lady about the cat. Just as I did that, the older lady started yelling out. "They're not gonna buy anything, Jack! Why are they here if they don't wanna buy anything? They don't like our store? They should leave!!" He agreed and so did we! This has been the weirdest shopping experience of my life.

He lead me straight to the wicked witch who stopped me and my iced coffee at the door. She blocked me from Going in and told her I was insulting her by bringing a coffee in. I was shocked all I saw was Christmas ornaments. I actually thought she was joking and laughed and she said unless you buy you can't come in. I stood shocked she scoured staring my soul down. We turned around and my fiancé said well that's why you have no business. Weirdest experience

THE REAL DEAL~…read more Although this store is listed here as Gloria's Added Touch, the sign says Gloria's Gifts and Accessories. The store has a large selection of Vera Bradley products, (large bags, back packs, and wallets), which are currently discounted at 30% off. This is a great store for ladies accessories because you won't find just random stuff here. They have very nice and super affordable leather bags, silk blend scarves, hats and other accessories that you can add to add to your fall wardrobe. Many of the shops on Main carry art projects from local artists which just add to the ambiance of the shops. As soon as you walk into this shop, you encounter a collection of miniature painted horses and no two are alike. They make the perfect gift for the young horse lover in the family because of their uniqueness. When you walk into this shop, don't just think about something for others as this is the perfect place for you to think about treating yourself. You will definitely want to check their selection.

The JC River is brand that used to be sold at the store had a very good kick and good aftertaste. The new House brand of jerky doesn't have near the hotness and can be hit or miss depending on each bite. Unfortunately, it looks like I'm going to have to start ordering from JC Rivers directly. Too bad, as I really look forward to visiting this store every time we went to Dahlonega. Keep in mind that this is only my opinion of the one jerky that I bought from them.
