Today I stopped at one of my most favorite gift shops in Waupaca - Main Street Marketplace. I've been in a few times because I wanted to blog about this wonderful shop, but could never catch the owners Bernadette and Kent Pegorsch. Well, today I got to meet Bernadette! she was busy hanging new merchandise in her shop when I approacher her.
Taken directly from their website...
"Main Street Marketplace opened its doors in 1984. Originally the store was primarily an antique store with some gifts and gourmet foods. In the following years, more and more gift lines were added and the candy and gourmet foods sections grew. In 1997, we purchased the entire Beadleston Building and immediately renovated the exterior of the building. The building had been painted in the 1940's and we felt it was important to restore the paint as it had become apart of the history of the building. As over 90% of our customers are local residents, we feel it is important to offer new items and lines as well as support the quality products that our customers have become accustomed to."
I have been in a few times to pick up gifts for family members over the past month...mostly jewelry and scarves - but they have so much more it is hard to choose sometimes. Also, their prices are really affordable which isn't always so common for a gift shop.
Here are a few pictures of their shop:
