Brezavaqt Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 My bf is taking his God-daughter to Hershey Park on Monday and of course I'm tagging along. But, I was wondering if there are any mini stores in that particular area? I would love to REALLY make a great trip out of it! Please let me know if you live close to that area and can point me in the right direction for a great miniature store where I can pick up some goodies for my house(s)!

jbnmini Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I live "just down the road" from Hershey - in Lancaster County. I don't know of any mini shops in that area. If there were-I want to know about it too!! I saw there is a Blue Mountain Dollhouse Miniatures shop in near Hamburg...but that's pretty far, I think. Anywho, sorry I can't be of any help. Have fun at the park! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roni Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 This one is in Mechanicsburg, Pa about 30 min or so from Hershey. Awsome place. The owner is very knowledgeable and a wonderful person. The shop is very small, but she packs a lot into it and has some very beutiful pieces. http://yellowpages.wgal.com/stevenson+s+do...7458p.home.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLyn M. Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Ah....Hershey Park.When we were moving to Texas the only out of the way place we stopped was at the Hershey place..loaded up with yummy things,ate a fantastic lunch(forget the tour)bought more stuff then hopped back on our way.As we came into town we actually witnessed a rainbow in back of the two chimneys...it was a sign from the Lord and we just blew off the highway and roared into the parking lot!! We still laugh about that. Knew zip about minis back then(2006) so can't help you out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brezavaqt Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 at Llyn!!! Those are the best times in life-spur of the moment, instructed by God! LOL. Thanks so much Roni. I'm going to see if I can get there!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_in_PA Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I am in the area also, but don't know of any near Hershey. There is one near Lancaster that is very nice, however, the lady who operates it only opens 3 days a week for a few hours. She is not online & does not advertise ! Her husband ran it for many years & after he passed she had to do everything, but doesn't know a lot about it. I offered to help her get online, etc., but she doesn't want the bother. Enjoy Hershey & if you have time, go to Chocolate World !! Steve in PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brezavaqt Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Thanks everyone! I'm heading out in the morning. Think I'm going to try to venture to the one Roni shared with me. I'll let everyone know how it turns out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCakes Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hey Steve, Where exactly is the one in Lancaster? I'm up that way (New Cumberland and Carlisle) about twice a year. Thanks! Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwcole7 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Hi Everyone, I am also in Lancaster County and know the lady that owns the store quite well. Here is her website. Not much but has the hours and address and phone number. She is a wonderful lady and has some beautiful dollhouses there and a great selection of supplies and fun finds. http://www.cimta.org/stores/village.htm Have fun!!!

Steve_in_PA Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Even with her address, it may be a bit hard to find. If you are on Rt.23 & Rhorestown Road, driving in to Lancaster on 23, it's about a good city block on the right side. You go in a narrow driveway & it's behind the house. Last time I talked to Pat, she said that she didn't even know that the web page was still up. She does have some very unique items. :welcome: Steve in PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brezavaqt Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 I just wanted to let everyone know that I made the trip to Hershey AND I was able to go to the Stevenson Dollhouse store!! I purchased some HERSHEY candy bars and chocolate milk mix for my dollhouse, as well as a beautiful bedroom set! I was extremely excited about the price of everything! I promised the owner that I would definitely be coming back-just to shop in the store. So, if you can make a trip to Mechanicsburg, PA, I strongly suggest you do so! The shop was so pleasing to me!! Thanks everyone for your input and Roni for pointing me to a shop that definitely wasn't too far off the path! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brezavaqt Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 To commemorate the trip to Hershey, PA, I had to get something for my dollhouse. Of course, CHOCOLATE!! I found Stevenson's Dollhouse store in Mechanicsburg, PA and fell in love with the shop owner and all the goodies she had inside! If you are in the area, I strongly suggest you stop by! (She had some deals...$1 wallpaper and this bedroom set for $35. Couldn't pass it up!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Love that wallpaper! And the bedroom set too. Mini stores are always so much fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCakes Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Thanks for the heads up Steve! I'll probably be up there around Christmastime....hopefully she'll be open. :lol: Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roni Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Hi Bre, I am so glad you liked Stevenson's. Isn't Kathy wonderful. Love her to pieces. I need to be making a trip there myself. Looks like you got some really nice goodies. She does have an Open House around Christmas time that is really worth a trip to the shop.

Brezavaqt Posted September 7, 2010 Author Share Posted September 7, 2010 Roni, weather permitting, I'M THERE!! (You know our winters have been a bit much lately!) I'm going to save for the trip now!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
