"Cool place with various items and art in a historic building."
"Saturday was the only day I had to get those little items for everybody when you're travelling plus a few post cards (I know, who mails post cards any more? Apparently, I do). There was a parade in downtown Austin on 6th, I think, and a block on either side was also blocked off. So all of the parking up from the parade (and not being a local, I didn't know how to get around it), was full. I drove up and around and found a truck pulling out of a shady spot (wow!) and took that. I was getting ready to walk to the nearest spot where I could get local touristy stuff when I looked in front of me. There she was, the Old Bakery and Emporium and there was something that said 'local artisans'. I went inside and they had everything! I could have purchased one of the amazing quilts, or some of the earrings. I was hard-pressed not to purchase one of the beautiful mugs or a hand-made handbag. Pricing was reasonable in my opinion. I walked around and enjoyed the stories of the bakery and some lovely antique pieces (including the oven). After much thought I walked away with a wall hanging and two fridge magnets, all mosaic made with stained glass by a local artist. Such quality work! And, of course, postcards. Next time I'm in Austin I will definitely return and highly suggest you check it out if you have a chance to!"
