They have a large candy area and ice cream counter as well. There is great variety at Imagine - everything from handmade crochet, to cork handbags from Portugal, to sea glass crafts, to household items. There's a lot to see here! We visited before Warren Art Night and I'm glad we stopped in before visiting the galleries as they close at 5:30. Definitely worth a stop when visiting Warren, and even worth a drive in from the surrounding area.

I had searched to see if there were any local…read moreretailers as I really like to see before purchasing and this came up (relatively close - still a nice day trip). I was blown away when I stopped in at the selection of not only Trollbeads (more on that) but interesting items. There was a huge assortment of antiques, new crafts, cards, books, vintage furnishings - you name it, I think they may have carried it! But, back to the beads - Karen came over and she was just incredible. She clearly knows her Trollbeads and a total newbie like me learned so much from her probably less than an hour, it was amazing. Not to mention the huge selection. And, the really affordable prices on many beads that you just won't find anymore. I found Karen to be so helpful and charming and honest. It was a really nice customer experience and I highly recommend visiting Twice Told Tales for anyone in the area. Plus, the downtown is really nice with an assortment of quirky stores and restaurants (and plenty of parking). It really is a hidden gem!

You can fell the quality of the fabric when you grab them, not the thin cheap ones that you get like in the streets of New York...LOL..
