They sell an array of home decor, seasonal decor, baby items, candies, and more. They carry the brand "mud pie" which is super cute and colorful. We got a sweet kid's puzzle here and a cool striped plate. They had holiday decor for 50% off right after Christmas that we enjoyed browsing too. The woman at the front counter was friendly and we'll be back next time we need a gift!

They have a small area for clothing, some holiday items, and unique gift items too. The space was a little tight to get around when the there are multiple visitors, but not too bad. The person running the shop was very personable and explained the holiday discounts (great savings, but a bit too complicated with so many exceptions.) Generally, a great attitude that made me feel welcome. Parking was easy since they have some free street parking in this plaza as well as in the free garage to the south of the shop. Review #2023

I stopped by toward the end of the year and they had a nice selection of holiday-themed items. The store is of course geared toward home furnishings but they have some gift-type items as well. As far as I can tell, they most likely rotate what they showcase in the store as the season goes but many things can be purchased online. During my visit, they happened to be doing a monthly wine tasting and I proceeded to sample several wines. The wines can be purchased in-store and online. Even during these times I would like to "see" things as I shop (but maybe don't "touch"?), and Two Chicks District Co. is worth a visit. The store isn't big but depending of when you go it won't be a full house. I chatted with the staff during the wine tasting, and I am sure they will be knowledgeable and helpful with your shopping needs.

I usually shop at the store on Mass Ave, but I was in Carmel, so decided to check it out. The clerks were busy stocking shelves for Christmas when we entered, but welcomed us with big smiles. The shop seems a bit smaller that their other location, but still carries most of the same merchandise. They are known for their silver jewelry by various artists. Currently, they are featuring charm necklaces. An Indiana theme runs throughout the store with everything from Indiana necklaces to Indiana kitchen towels. It's a great place to pick up a gift with candles, art and even some local foods. I even saw a few toys and puzzles today for the kids. I was looking for a funny card and they have a small selection of cards but they were somewhat inappropriate to give a daughter. But they do have lots of crazy socks. There is street parking or parking behind the building.

The other is *exquisite,* which sells fine goods from US, Italy, Mexico, and France. Brands like Jan Barboglio, Trvdon, Fieldbar, Baobab, L'Objet, etc. The owner might seem snobby, but he's actually quite patient and helpful (and he owns the most high-end store in Carmel, so an "aire" is understandable). His employees are wonderful (looking at you Janelle)! If you need a luxury gift for someone (or yourself), skip Neiman's website and head to Addendum, tout de suite!

An entire wall is filled with beautiful glassware, perfect for wedding presents. They carry a lot of traditional decor, that is hard to find now. I bought several cute cards. Prices are reasonable. Peg, the clerk, was engaging, helpful and ambassador for the area. (She sent me to the nearby cupcake shop after I checked out.) She also made sure that we had an invite to their upcoming holiday open house. There is plenty of parking in the strip mall lot.

This was my first opportunity to check out The Accent Shop in its new location after a move from…read morethe Nora area. The Accent Shop has been around since 1958 when Dick and Jane Bridgins opted to move out of their department store setting in an effort to bring a more modern style store to the Indy area offering furniture, lamps, tabletop and more. Today's The Accent Shop definitely still focuses on contemporary design, though they have a strong focus on bridal and gift registry items including dinnerware, flatware, glassware, serving pieces, collectibles, jewelry, and a bunch of other fun stuff. This new location is a little more relaxed than was Nora. For the most part, it seems a lot more spacious until you get into the Collectibles area where everything is really packed in. The employees have always been helpful here, though it's definitely in a more reserved way. In terms of accessibility, I'd likely quibble a bit with Yelp's listing that "wheelchair accessible" is one of the amenities here. While it definitely has some of the basics - for example, nearby accessible parking, appropriate curb cuts, and a level to the ground entry - The store itself is for sure a little bit hit-and-miss in terms of interior design. As I noted, this is especially true in the collectibles area where even my small manual wheelchair struggled and had to detour my path multiple times due to far too narrow aisles. I can't imagine a power chair being successful here. That said, the front of the store is vastly superior to the Nora location in terms of space and design. That was nice to see. I also really love the options here. I think the collectibles section bugged me in terms of access precisely because that was my favorite area of the store. From Christmas wares to a surprisingly large (and unique) Halloween section, I was really impressed here. I loved some of the candles. I loved the garden flags. The glassware was awesome. I think my two favorite sections are likely the kitchenwares and the seasonal collectibles. I can easily see myself returning come Halloween. Prices vary. You can sure spend a modest amount here, though there are also some higher-end items. There's something special about a shop that reminds you of the value of in-person shopping. I really enjoyed shopping here and loved the diversity of the items. Overall, I'd easily return and I very likely will during both Halloween and Christmas. While I do wish the layout was a bit more wheelchair friendly, there's an obvious effort here and I'm guessing 3/4 of the store is easily accessible and for the most part going very slowly and with care I was able to see most everything I wanted to see.

Last year on a cold winter day we stumbled on this place while eating at Liter House. It is a…read morelittle kept secret... a true gem! We now check it out on a regular basis and always find some unique items. Prices are excellent, especially when compared to other vintage shops. The true treasure of the sho are the people that run it. They are so delightful and always make you feel welcome. Many times they have helped add to a collection by offering suggestions and remembering us when we came in. Though we don't always buy something we always learn something. Their knowledge and helpfulness is fantastic. I appreciate all the unique serving pieces and kitchen things available. My husband loves the record collection. Give this place a try... Parking can be utilized on either side of the building. You will have to look for it the first time but it is easy if you look for the grey building next to Liter House.

Mostly, I wanted to visit Gaskin Fantastic Finds because of the fantastic use of assonance and…read morealliteration in the business name (GAS-kin FAN-TA-stic Finds). The name has been ringing around in my head on repeat since I heard about this Cumberland shop a few weeks ago. I'm one of those people who cannot have decorative things in their home that have words on them, because I will repeat the words or phrases in my head over and over whenever I see them. So, no Live-Laugh-Love or Bless This Mess signs for me. However, if you're a word-sign person, you will definitely find things like that here. You will also find things like toys, rugs, stationery, fancy snacks, ottomans, laundry detergent, wallets, makeup, holiday decor and lots more. This place is like if Home Goods, Ollie's and Dollar Tree had a three-way tryst that produced a child. That child would be named Gaskin. This is the kind of store where you don't visit to find a specific thing, because they might have it, and they might not. No, you need to go in with a pure heart and an open mind. It's best to just browse and be surprised. Oh! I didn't know I needed this stackable pantry shelf. Oh! What a good price on L'Oreal Elvive Hydrating Shampoo. Oh! My kids would really appreciate these Squishmallows for Christmas. This is a good place to find little trinkets and random gifts if you're indecisive and OK with letting the universe guide you to a gift. The prices are just OK; definitely less than retail, though, so you are saving money here if you find just the thing you want.

They had so many nice Christmas items. My husband found a really nice Monument Circle ornament. When we first saw the store we were on the wrong side. Once inside we realized it was a store and a place to take classes! They will also re-do your items. I mean how cool is that?!? You can get something re-purposed or learn how to do it yourself! At the event the owner, Erica, was there and she had wines and cheese and fruits to sample. I really loved her passion and she was super nice. She had wines that the proceeds went to charity. I can't wait to go back and have more time to discover all the fun items she has and plan to follow her blog and website. She even has a FB page!

Fivethirty Home is a neat shop with great merchandise, so if you are in downtown Zionsville, you should check it out. It is very nice and worth browsing around.
