The Museum Gift Shop

The Octagon House Museum Gift Shop is located in the Carriage House, just behind the Octagon House. There is always something new to see in the Shop as we continually find new vendors with charming offerings.

The Shop carries many Victorian-reproduction items, including tea sets, paper doll cutout books, heritage lace pieces, old fashioned ornaments and a variety of inexpensive children's toys.The Shop also has a good selection of historical publications, including the Society's 2003 publication of "Fifty Years On Petticoat Lane" a collection of articles written by Hudson Star-Observer columnist Kay Johnson.

Please remember to visit our carriage house gift shop, brimming with new merchandise, when making your holiday shopping list. As always, we strive to keep prices down, and all proceeds go to maintaining the museum complex.
