I have been to Junkbox Hero twice so far, definitely a bit of a hidden gem!…read more It's a very nostalgic little shop housing antique toys, coffee and biscuit tins, art and a wide variety of other vintage or refurbished odds and ends. Prices are pretty reasonable. The owner is friendly and inviting, she has a good eye for fun pieces and is always changing out inventory. The parking lot is small and can probably only hold about five vehicles, so park thoughtfully! Keep in mind that this business is only open every other weekend or so and to be up-to-date on hours or any store changes, definitely visit their Facebook page.

It's not an Amish mall, but it is a strange sort of mall in Amish country. It's a difficult place…read moreto describe, so I won't really try to describe it, but it feels like a 1980s mall designed in the 1880s. A multilevel building with completely separate stores that allows a person to go from store to store without ever leaving the building? Complete with a directory of where the stores are within the building? And a place to eat while shopping? Well, friends, that's Davis Mercantile in Shipshewana. There are about twenty stores on four levels. They're really random stores, too. Like those random stores at real malls, the non-chain ones that seemed to hang on despite the fact that they didn't get as much business. They cater mostly to tourists, but places like Lolly's Fabrics probably also probably do much better with the locals here than they would in almost any other part of the country--except maybe for Utah. I've been here four times and am always both excited to come and slightly disappointed when I've spent some time here. I really want it to be a mall, even though that would ruin in. I reminds me a lot of my childhood and the randomness of the three malls in Carmel, California, before rents got so high that regular places like stationery stores and ice-cream shops and stores that sold mostly flowerpots and gardening equipment could no longer afford to exist there. Davis Mercantile is nothing like any of those three malls, really, but they're connected in my mind. I want in-person shopping to be as fun and random and normal as it used to be.

They also have some awesome puzzles and they even had my husband's favorite kind of toy- the science kind. So whether they are just playing to play or playing to learn, there is something here for your child or an adult who is a child at heart. Red Wagon is located on the 3rd floor of Davis Mercantile, not far from the carousel. I also loved that they had 2 doors for the entrance, one normal sized door and a small door for toddlers. I know my 6 year old nephew would have loved having his own door that Auntie and mom couldn't get through. I would definitely recommend stopping in while in the area if you have a kid in your life.
