The Mercantile

The Mercantile Games, Toys, and Gifts...
Find your Happy place! We continued to carry many of these items until January of 2021. We also have Art kits and supplies.

We started out as a gift shop in August of 1988 with candles, old fashioned candy, gourmet coffee beans, gifts and more. Our navigation through the pandemic months of 2020, helped us to reassess our 30+ year old business. In January we made the decision to reduced our inventory selection to the best of the best, create a gathering space, and begin to offer events throughout the year, such as game

nights. Our streamlined selection includes children's and inspirational books, taper candles, toys, games, plush, puppets, whole bean coffee, dip mixes, hand made soaps, and a wide selection of bulk candy and chocolates. Our Rubber Stamps and beading supplies are now back stock, rather than open stock. As always we are happy to special order the items you need. We also offer a variety of crafting classes for groups, or one on one. (check our page for what is on the schedule. Don't see a class you want? think about reserving an a la cart time.) Some of the lines we carry The World's Softest Socks, Folkmanis Puppets, The Puppet Company, Northern Lights Candles, SallyeAnder Soaps (including No Bite Me), Stewarts Crafts Soaps, Kiss a Prince soaps, AbbeyGift, EDC books, Peter Pauper Press, Carma Games, The Good Game People, Haba, Hape, Plus Plus, Wiki Stix, Stone Craft, Gault, University Games, eeboo, Crazy Aarons, Asmodee, Smart Toys, Mobi, Funny Mat, Mercantile made cards, and Leanin' Tree greeting cards and much more (including new lines ordered off and on throughout the year)
We will continue to have a wide selection of Christmas ornaments, especially ones you can have personalized! We are also creating a private classroom, that can be used for classes or a special gathering. Stop by and chat with us about our renewed space.

Are you a crystal nail file lover? These Czech class nail files are made of tempered glass, and have the grit etched into the glass! No peeling of the grit, and the files can be washed in the dishwasher!! Terri got a little confused when ordering and we ended up with a number of smaller ones. Hey, perfect for your purse!! We also have a few with rounded ends for babies!!

How many of us want to be creative, and would be happy with a little of something to try something new, rather than a big supply only to find you don't enjoy the process? Or the grands are coming and you need something to keep them busy on a rainy day. These two little kits arrived to give you a little something, with out a big outlay. EUGY puzzles, and Klaytivity air dried clay animals. both for ages 6+
