Main Street Toys Shooting for a Mix of Unique and Nostalgic, Owner Says
Plainfield, IL – Victoria Halsell-Brewton jokes that it’s not likely her kids will be visiting her new store very often — not if she wants to keep her merchandise for the customers.
After all, what kid wouldn’t be tempted to break into the Silly Putty, open up the Do-A-Dot Art paints or test one of the road trip games. And when the candy gets put out, well, you can’t have the children eating up the profits.
Halsell-Brewton and her husband, Preston Brewton, are the proprieters of Main Street Toys & Candy, which they hope to open in early- to mid-May. It’s located at 24036 W. Lockport St. in downtown Plainfield.
