Shopping in Lititz Pa was a real treat. The shops are plentiful from Lancaster to Lititz to Brickerville and all points in between. This particular Saturday my friends and I visited Shops in downtown Lititz. We are known for having lots of fun when we explore. Laughter is abundant and what we find we like to share.

 There was this little glass shop on Sturgis Lane called The North Star of Lititz, one of many shops and certainly not the only glass shop but the shop keeper was a real sport, offering insights into the different glass objects and interesting trivia. We even signed their “we were here” book for posterity.

They come in a variety of colors and they are so cute. As I remember, they were very reasonable in price and would make the neatest conversation piece in any home or gift for a special friend.

If you love gift shops and arts and crafts with an unusual variety of offerings this town is worth the trip..

Also among the hundreds of items were glass seashells, all different in shape and colors displayed in sand as if to be a treasure found on a nearby beach. Pick them up and they sparkle.  Glass balls of all kinds, glass figures and things that shine and glisten were displayed for all to see. Mobiles of some very unique and unusual themes caught our eyes; one in particular featured a series of martini glasses.

 If you are ever in Lititz, look these wonderful shop keepers up. They, as everyone in town were very friendly and willing to go the extra mile to make your day more pleasant. . They are located at 6 North Stergis Lane, Lititz Pa 17543 and you can phone them at 717-625-1945. There website is http://thenorthstaroflititz.com .

When we left, we went over to the Sutter Place on the square for lunch. If you are a guy, you gotta check out the lady in the bathtub in the Mens room. Her name is Pearl and she will give you a start and a smile as you enter. Don’t worry, she won’t solicite you, just a manequin but very unusual. 

We had fun, you will too.
