Life’s little moments at home can be elevated with a beautiful table setting, serveware or candle. Pageberry Mercantile caters to those special times.
Owner Paige Densmore, a veteran of Duluth Trading Co., had always known she wanted to open her own store. When a space became available in downtown Waunakee, she and her mom, Cyndy, leaped at the chance to open their own boutique.
On a recent Friday afternoon, the light-filled space buzzed with customers checking out the elegant housewares, kitchen goods, gourmet food products and kids’ items.
“A lot of the items [here] are by brands that my mom and I have loved over the years, and knew we had to [carry],” she explains. American Spoon’s specialty food items and Rifle Paper Co.’s products were two must-haves.
The shop also hosts workshops, and upcoming offerings include a winter garland offering and watercolor greeting card class.
“I love talking to the people that come in here,” says Densmore. “It’s fun helping people [pick out] gifts or assisting them with a small need they may have.”
