The Doll Museum — Attraction in Sharon Township

This charming museum is located in the Old Rectory and has more to share aside from the doll collection--there is also an antique shop which might come in handy if you do not carry cash because $3 is required to allow access to the two rooms that house the rest of the doll collection. My granddaughter was content to explore the antiques so we planned a return trip with cash in hand. It was worth every penny and so satisfying to see old friends (Barbie, Ginny, Betsy McCall, Tiny Tears.) Chatty Cathy and Patty Play Pal share the space with some really unusual dolls. The museum has a self guided tour of the two rooms and we spent at least an hour browsing. Predictably, parking is an issue if you go Friday afternoon but we had no trouble finding parking...

They have a lots of beautiful thinhs to look at. Dolls, vintage dresses and furniture, doll houses and buggies.

In addition, there is a gift shop loaded with items that are consigned by members pf the museum. A wide variety of linens and jewelry, vintage or rare glass (vases,dishes, bowls, misc), painting and prints, games amd so much more.

And, one of my favorites, Worthington Bean Soup mix.

You are sure to find something you really like. I found a framed " Blue Boy" print in a beautiful old frame.

You won't regret spending some time browsing at this lovely...
