Sad when you have to ask for a bag and your items just get shoved into a cheap plastic bag. Typically around the holidays, most stores make exceptions to their return policies but not greedy sisters.... I like to shop small business but next time I'll stick with pottery barn and save my money and receive better customer service

My husband and I wanted to visit somewhere new and special for our 1 year wedding anniversary…read more.. this was the PERFECT spot! We made two candles, ordered drinks, and had an amazing experience over all. I was able to pick up our candles a few days later and they are wonderful. The employees are friendly and very attentive. We were new to the candle-making world and our host explained everything well. Would 100% recommend for fun or to make special memories. They are also conveniently located right off Monon Trail in the heart of DT Carmel, so there's lots of dining options to grab while you wait for your candles! Cannot wait to go back soon.

This was such a fun and unique experience! Kaley (not sure if spelled correct) was absolutely…read morewonderful at guiding us through each stage of making our candles. She is so good with advice. Service was top notch. It is so relaxing and clean inside the store. The chairs are a little uncomfortable. However, I do have a bigger backend. Great for groups or needing an idea for a creative date. Pricing was fair. Candles are always pricey. Making your own actually helps me feel justified on pricing. Ranges $29-$50 depending on the type of candle you select.

The lady was so helpful and knowledgeable. Great experience!

Going into a Hallmark Store is dangerous for me because I will buy more than I need. This Hallmark…read moreis large and spacious with lots of cards, novelty items, party items, home decor and a few tee shorts. I was greeted when I came in. I needed a couple cards and was able to find what I wanted easily except for the distraction of the great cheese boards. Fortunately the boards were cost prohibitive, so I just walked away with cards. Parking is plentiful and easy.

I stopped into Hallmark last weekend to pick up some Mother's Day cards. They were very well…read morestocked with a great variety of cards. The store looked so bright and cheery with all the displays set up for Mother's Day and Spring. I used my Hallmark Crown club coupons and ended up getting three cards for about $3 total. That's a great deal - if you've shopped for cards recently; then you know they are expensive. They will be closed soon for a short time while the exterior renovations get completed. It's perhaps best to call to verify they are open.

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.

I spotted this gift store across the street from Muldoon's and we had to check them out. They…read morepacked a little bit of everything into this small store. My granddaughter loved their cute gnomes. They looked hand made to me. I ended up buying a long sleeve light grey T-shirt with a small "Carmel" on the front and a large one across the back. Purchase price was twenty five dollars and that was a fair market value, not an inflated gift store price in my opinion.

This is the cutest shop, and I get super good vibes when I'm in there, surrounded by so many…read morelocally made items. The name of this store doesn't lie: It's full of all things Carmel! My first visit, I walked out of there with a wine glass etched with the streets of downtown Carmel, and a pair of wooden dangly earrings made by someone who lives in Carmel. I seriously could have bought so many more things but I gave myself a budget. But I was eyeing a map of Carmel that would have looked great on my wall. In the store, you'll find lots of Carmel-related clothing to show off your school spirit, including Carmel school sweatshirts and Greyhound gear, scarves and beanies in school colors, and more. There are also sweaters and running gear promoting the Monon Trail! You'll also find jewelry, mugs and travel coffee cups, pillows, bumper stickers, and even tins of mints and treats emblazoned with Carmel insignia. And because Carmel is the roundabout capital of the nation, there are roundabout-related things like roundabout playing cards, roundabout posters, roundabout postcards, etc. The people who work here are very friendly, and I also found out that they are volunteers! They work at the store because they love Carmel and want to help promote the city, which is pretty awesome.

Oh, I think I'm in trouble. I bought my first piece of Polish pottery bakeware (a quiche dish) and…read morenow I'm hooked on Polish pottery. I need (yes, need) more Polish pottery in my life. It's beautiful, it's oven safe, it's dishwasher safe, it's microwave safe, and ... have I mentioned that it's beautiful? Each and every piece is something that you'd want to use every day, but also use when you serve guests (and I can guarantee your guests will compliment you on your pottery). It's just lovely. I had a hard time picking out a piece to buy myself: At this store that's located in Carmel's City Center, there are platters, dishes, bakeware for muffins and loaves, pie plates, ornaments, tasting spoons and cups, mugs and more. And every single piece can be used in the microwave/dishwasher/oven. I love pretty things that you don't have to worry about ruining! This pottery is hearty and will last a long time, and the prices reflect that quality. For instance, the small quiche dish that I bought was around $35. But this truly is a piece of functional pottery that will last a lifetime, and can be passed on to others. Out of the Blue has been in Carmel about two years, and they typically have a booth at the Carmel Christkindlmarkt (although since the market won't be happening this year, they obviously won't be there). So this is the only store of its kind in Hamilton County. If you love beautiful pottery and baking/cooking in it, I suggest checking out this place.
