Outdoors, on sidewalk, are several trellises, flower pots, metal chickens, windmills, gazing balls and other yard ornaments. All, IMHO, were pricey compared to other places I shop. I suppose, as usual, the price depends on what buyer feels is the value to them. Indoors, more of the same but add into the mix older home decor, floral arrangements, posters, knives, small pieces of furniture, several restored traffic lights, life size movie and TV cardboard characters, lot of old video cassettes and more. The owners were friendly, not overly talkative and allowed us to browse at our own speed and not hover. Again, I felt many of the items were overpriced with a few exceptions. The two restored traffic lights were a great deal and my husband always checks out traffic lights. All-in-all, cute little store worth checking out if your into antiques, vintage, distressed and restored items. You'll also find inside, to the right of entrance, a small leather shop with many nice belts, purses and jackets. More under their Yelp Business Name, Hilltop Leather.

Mike Cento is a true craftsman. He took 2 pairs of shoes, resoled them, cleaned them up, polished…read morethem, etc., and now they are like new shoes. One of the pairs, my Footjoy Classics Spikeless, stopped being produced in 2009 so I wasn't sure how difficult of a project this might be for Mike. Turns out they look better than they did when they were new! More support, better constructed, and they look brand new. Mike took a pair of shoes that were literally falling apart and brought them back to life, even better than before. These Footjoys look better than anything Footjoy sells these days! Mike did such a great job that I dropped off another pair when I picked up my last 2 pair. And I have about 3 more pairs of shoes that are in need of being recrafted, Cento Shoes will be wear I am taking them. The price is right at Cento Shoes and they carry all the good and necessary shoe care products to keep your shoes in great shape and well nourished. Jennifer who works in the front of the house is just amazing and super kind. She got me taken care of in no time and while I was there picking up my shoes I got some new socks and shoe care accessories too. Cento Shoes has been around longer than I have been alive and Mike Cento has the same passion for shoes that I do. Footwear is really important to me. If it is important to you and want support a locally-owned family business of 50+ years that brings footwear back to life, go see Mike and Jennifer at Cento Shoes, you will not be disappointed. Mike is like the Obi-Wan Kenobi of shoe recrafting. He has a new customer and a friend for life. Thank you!!!

The inside is amazingly neat with an entire wall of perfectly folded Levi jeans. They carry a vast selection of Carhartt, Wrangler, Lee and any western ware that you can imagine. They carry attire for men, women and kids. I hate buying jeans that don't fit, so it's great that they have a wide range of sizes and styles in stock that you can try on. I thought that prices are on the high side, but about what you'd expect for quality wear. Currently, winter clothes are on clearance. The staff friendly. We were greeted when we entered the store. They let us wander and look throughout the store. There's plenty of parking in their private lot.

Today I bought another belt because my waist keeps getting smaller from weight loss and a Western style shirt. The shirt was only half of the price of the newer Western shirts too. FYI: They have fitting rooms and mirrors scattered throughout the store. My sister shops here as well for her husband's and son's work clothes, jeans and work T-shirts. Those three guys are hard on work clothes so she's here often. She has been a loyal customer for years so that's one reason I started coming here after moving back to Indiana from Arizona. Now I find myself coming back again and again.

I saw a Black Friday advertisement flyer in my Mooresville newspaper and decided to check them out again. I was looking for a couple of pairs of new gloves for one. I did manage to find a new pair of gloves to go with my new jacket I bought last month from the Indianapolis Speedway Museum. I purchased a pair of Ridgeline leather gloves that will become a pair of driving gloves for me and they were very reasonably priced. I didn't find the second pair but I think they will not appear until the Spring or Summer seasons. I did find a nice assortment of insulated gloves, socks, boots and other outdoor clothing. Unfortunately they did not have my size in the socks since my feet are a size smaller than the normal size of large. They also had an assortment of women's socks and knit hats for both genders. I like this store and need to remember to come back often.

I knew right away that I could get the same tiny pine pellets at Tractor Supply, MUCH cheaper. Tractor Supply is listed as a pet friendly store, so I took my furry buddy, Clarabelle with me. She was happy to escort me back to livestock bedding and feed, where I found what I thought I was looking for. They have 40 pound bags of Pine pellets for $5.99. You will pay $10-$15 for a 20 pound bag of Feline Pine, depending where you buy it. So this is a great deal. However, at first, I couldn't see anything about what the pellets are made of. Being large, heavy bags, the way they were stacked high, I couldn't get a good look. So I asked an employee as he walked past me. He looked the bag over, said he wasn't sure and he'd go ask. As he came back thru, he told me he couldn't find anything on it, apologized, and kept on going. I did a quick search online and quickly realized it was indeed pine and exactly what I needed. I noticed the word "pine" across the top as I loaded the bag into my cart. The cashier was polite and offered my pup a treat, even tho my picky gal had no interest. Nice enough store and it really has a lot of stuff packed into the space. I would have appreciated more helpful, knowledgeable employees.

I called the company that I bought the chair from and they wanted over $300 to send me stuff to use. When I said I'd like a local person they suggested Jon Grigsby. I called Jon, he gave me references (Kirk Furniture in Carmel) who vouched for him. In the area 30 years and does a great job! In one day he re-dyed the leather and conditioned and resealed it back to beautiful! He also does work for cars and boats. If you need leather or vinyl repair, I highly recommend him.
