| Forget the hustle and bustle
of the malls. A leisurely day of browsing and buying in the Clemson area is so much more
enjoyable! You'll find everything you need - and more! Start
your shopping trip in downtown Clemson. Tree-lined College Avenue is the perfect setting
for specialty shops - one right after another. These stores offer a wide array of gifts
and home accents. You'll find books, CDs, clothing, and accessories. And be sure to stop
at Judge Keller's General Merchandise. Family-owned and operated since 1899, this
old-fashioned mercantile sells everything from bow ties to nails.
Being a college town, local merchants naturally specialize in
Clemson University memorabilia. There are Tiger T-shirts, shorts, sweat suits, jackets,
and caps in all sizes. There are pins, earrrings, necklaces, tie tacks, and cuff links.
Not to mention the mugs, key chains, umbrellas, stationery, and anything else that can be
imprinted with Clemson's signature tiger paw.
Next, it's a short drive to Pendleton. With a quaint, village
atmosphere of yesteryear, the park-like town square is bordered by unique gift shops. You
can find hand-carved angels and handmade cards; fine jewelry and designer fashions;
collectibles and specialty items; and anything else that your heart desires.
Antique lovers adore Pendleton! Several antique shops are clustered
within a few blocks of the town square. Neighboring communities of Central, Seneca, and
Walhalla are also especially good for antiquing. With such a wide selection from which to
choose, chances are you'll find exactly what you've been searching for!
And for the person on your shopping list who has everything,
consider a one-of-a-kind handmade gift from a ocal artist or crafter, several of whom have
a combined studio-store where you can watch them in action while selecting something
special to take home.
Whatever you need (or want), you'll find it in the Clemson area! |
