I was curious to know what a store called Sample n' Gift Shoppe would have. Turns out, it was kind…read moreof like a Hallmark store with many trinket gift items and cards. One of the gift brands was Jim Shore, Heartwood Creek line, which was chiseled looking wood carvings. Wizard of Oz figurines made by the Warner Brothers and Turner Company adorned shelves as well. If you know someone who is a fan of the Wizard of Oz and loves collectibles, this is a place you can actually find them a gift. Like Hallmark stores they also had tons of ornaments for sale, some of which were Jim Shore. And of course, one cannot seemingly go into a gift shop in Columbus without there being college football gear. Whether you're an Ohio State fan or a Michigan fan, there were gifts for you. Greeting cards were in ample supply. I was happy to see that many of the card companies they carried were made in the USA, including the Lang Company. Portal was another and they're out of Massachusetts. Laura Leiden was yet another and is out of Watkinsville, Georgia.

She had hot apple cider for customers, which was a nice touch of hospitality on a brisk day. I was looking for a hand sanitizer to keep in my house entryway, and she directed me to the Naked Bee hand sanitizer with aloe gel & soothing witch hazel, with an orange blossom honey scent. I will come here again when I want to buy gifts for others and for an occasion for self-care outing.

We love Green Haven Living! The store features such unique, eco-friendly and beautiful products.

I think the shop is a little smaller than their old location, but more open. The wall of testers is by the door, and the tea is labeled by flavor and variety.

The shop is off the beaten path, in other words, you have to walk a bit to get to it, but once you find it, it's a pleasure.

I'm so glad I discovered Celebrate Local at Easton Town Center. As a lover of all things local,…read morethis place is like heaven. It's filled to the brim with locally made items, everything from food to clothing, home decor, jewelry, wine, and more. It's definitely a great place to shop for a thoughtful gift. You can certainly find something special here. On my last visit I walked out with a delicious sugar cookie and a jar of elderberry jam, both made right here in Columbus! The staff here is very informed on the items in the store and where they come from. They can also fill you in on the stories behind them, which is very cool. If you haven't stopped in for a visit, I suggest you make it a priority.

I didn't know what to expect but was open. I suggest you are too. She lays down a great framework for how she will work with you. So much of the experience she explores for you is from her experience with reading people. She will link visuals and names and reminds a person that if a person from the other side that those with 'Unconditional love will always step aside for those who might have guilt or regret." so someone who has something to tell you can come forth. She records the session and also takes amazing notes then upon parting we are told that these words and visuals will link up and to look forward to seeing how they do. I'm happy to visit Brenda when I am in town again and looking forward to seeing who from my amazing family that has come before wants to make contact. Thank you Brenda, you are awesome and I'm grateful for your talents.

My son and I were here happened upon this shop when we planned on going to Learning Express but they were unexpectedly closed for water damage.

There were some neat magnet boards, doll clothes, really interesting repurposing of old books into journals and albums, and a whole lot more. This is well worth a visit and definitely a place I'd love to visit again to see what new work they are creating. This has a nice location in the Shops at Worthington Place, with plentiful parking in the shopping center lots.

So, good luck returning a gift, or anything you change your mind on. The associate had zero interest in us, as all of her attention was between her macbook and her iphone.

They still bill this as Karen's "HALLMARK" Shop but if you're looking for cards (birthday,…read moreanniversary, etc.) - the pickings are getting pretty slim. I've always favored Hallmark cards but as the selection here gets thinner and thinner, I'm tempted to start shopping for non-Hallmark cards at the grocery store. In fact, I think the grocery store may actually have a better, more extensive selection of cards than this Hallmark shop. The shop was downsized several years ago but more and more of the remaining space is being devoted to clothing (yes, clothing), purses, knickknacks, and geegaws. This may have been my last visit to Keren's Hallmark - I guess I'm no longer part of their target demographic (i.e. card shoppers).
