I LOVE DAINTY DARLING BOUTIQUE…read more I went when the summer season wear was still up, now completely changed to autumn attire. Clothing, accessories, shoes, face masks, and many other fun items are available. Of course the pricing is more than a typical retail store, but that can be expected of any boutique. There is a powder room and a fitting room available. The back room is entirely plus size fashion. No men's clothes, no children's clothes. Very cute options, on trend for the season. Lovely ladies that work here and nice music in the background.

Love this new location. The store has a variety of offerings, most of which are clothing related. I…read morewent on the grand opening and walked away with three good pieces. The store owners and employees were friendly and had a nice setup of coffee and foods to entice customers. :) They are doing a good job keeping their social media up to date, so check out their Instagram if you want to see what's going on!

What a great store. Loved the Amish soap, bought 6 on Friday and went back on Saturday and got 12…read moremore. (I took a wrong turn on the mountain what should have been a 15 min ride took me an hour ). Was so worth it. Melissa was so kind and welcoming.

My family and I stopped into Take Heart last month during our first visit to Blowing Rock. My…read more6-year-old daughter had been looking for a heart-shaped locket after losing one from her grandparents. She finally found what she was looking for at Take Heart! She immediately went to the counter so we could purchase it. The women there were so kind with her, asking about her purchase and her name. They were so touched by her story that they decided to gift it to her for Christmas! We were shocked! We were in the store for a brief amount of time, but that visit will leave a long-lasting impression on her and us. Thank you to "the purple shop" for creating such a wonderful Christmas memory for our family!

This is THE STORE I look forward to visiting each time I visit Blowing Rock NC. It is my favorite…read morestore in fact. From the moment I walk in I feel welcomed. The scents, the positive and uplifting music playing over the speakers, the friendly welcome from the staff, and all the beautiful items in the store, feel like home to me. The owner Sherri is the icing on the cake, her smile is pure comfort. She is always happy to help me pick out something special. Her Joy is contagious, and sincere. There are so many beautiful items in the store. Each time I go I find a little gift for a friend, a family member, and usually one for myself, and I leave with a smile on my face. Take Heart is a lovely little gem of a store. I cannot wait to return.

This souvenir and clothing shop gets three stars purely for the service, which was a masterclass in…read moreexistential time anticipation. Every single customer who approached the clerk, whether buying an overpriced T-shirt or a tacky magnet, was greeted with the same intensely desperate and loaded phrase: "Can't wait until 6 PM." When I finally asked why, he just scanned my purchase, sighed, and explained that's when "the clock stops ticking on this shift." Since it was only 4:35 PM, his singular, desperate focus on the next 85 minutes transformed a mundane trip into a profound, albeit awkward, lesson in yearning. I hope 6 PM was worth it.

Good mall. Has everything you need, nothing extra. Took a while for me to adjust to coming from…read moreCharleston, SC, and frequently visiting other malls, like South Park in Charlotte and Lenox Square Mall in ATL, but overall, I mean, if you need something.... this place is good. There's an Old Navy, TJ Maxx (which, by the way, is NOT at the front of the store as the sign would mislead you to believe), Homegoods (i.e., Marshall's without the clothes), Belk, a Merle Norman outlet, Bath & Body Works, the Gamefather (a video game store), and some clothing stores. Also a standard pretzel/soda/cookie spot, too. A hair cuttery, a cafe, a nail salon... You definitely couldn't make a day out of shopping here, but could spend an hour or two or so. It's clean, and the restrooms are nice, too. I will save comments about individual stores for their own personal Yelp reviews. Overall, I wouldn't suggest this as a spot for out-of-town folks, unless you just want to be amazed simply the size of by a small town mall (aka, it's cute). This is more of a spot for locals who just need (want) to grab something they're specifically looking for. This place is A-OK, and that's okay with me! :)
