Donna Plesnarski owns and operates Donna’s Emporium.  Donna has more than 35 years of experience in business and communications.  She has studied and collected Victorian antiques for 25 years and marketed her goods at an antique mall.  In 2005, she established Donna’s Emporium specializing in gifts, accessories, and furnishings, all new products with a Victorian flair.  Her goal is to continually offer a unique selection of all things beautiful from roses to lace, and provide that service with the utmost consideration and respect for her customers.

Kate Doleniak brings more than 25 years of retail and supervisory experience to Donna’s Emporium.  Kate provides the underlying strain of orderliness that is necessary behind the scenes at Donna’s Emporium.  She and her husband Steve operate a stained glass business, producing reproduction and custom-designed lamps and windows.  They also retail fine porcelain at an antique venue.
