They carried high end craft kits, games, toys and other gifts that would amuse young people. The shop is located on the second floor of the Keystone Fashion Mall. Shoppers were intently picking out Valentines and gifts during my visit. A clerk welcomed me and offered to help. They carry art supplies including watercolors and watercolor paper.

The final products were beautiful and were a highlight of the event.

There's a surprising amount of clothing at BoxLunch. I guess I shouldn't say "surprising," because I really had no expectations of what this store would be before stepping inside. But there's a lotta shirts and other clothing here. Also, mini backpacks! Are mini backpacks a thing again? I guess they are, if I should believe the wall of mini backpacks at BoxLunch. It used to be difficult to find Japanese candy and snacks around Indianapolis, but this store is just one of at least two stores at Castleton Square Mall where you can get Japanese goodies. Times are a-changing, and for the better, especially if it means more places to buy shrimp chips and green tea Kit Kat. BoxLunch is packed with lots of fun stuff, but it's all organized neatly, and the person who worked there when I visited was friendly and helpful.

Can you believe it?…read more Living Truth Bookstore, a Noblesville area Christian bookstore, has been in business since 1998 yet hasn't a single Yelp review to its name. That's mind-blowing to me. Does that say more about Living Truth or more about Yelp? I dunno. Anyway, Living Truth is located in a modestly sized storefront in what looks to be an older strip center in Noblesville. It's in the same area a Rebellion Doughnuts, so you can get "hole" and "holy" all in one visit. Sorry, that wasn't even funny. Living Truth appears to be somewhat associated with a local church and seems to work collaboratively with area ministries given the abundance of signs in its windows. In most ways, they're your typical Christian bookstore with books, CDs, a variety of decorative items, videos, religious items (such as Bibles, etc.), and a fairly healthy variety of Spanish-language items. They have accessible parking directly in front of their store, though it's not particularly well marked. There is a ramp leading up to the sidewalk. The single-sided glass door is fairly heavy, but I had no trouble opening it. The woman working the counter was hospitable. Because the store is relatively modest in size, their items are packed in quite busily. While I understand packing in as much as possible, I will admit this also makes it less enjoyable to simply browse. I found myself quickly losing interest in a variety of sections. The theological leanings of Living Truth appear to go more toward the conservative side - you won't find Christian authors like Claiborne or Campolo here, though I did notice the music section had some flexibility to it with artists such as Mat Kearney, a secular artist who identifies as Christian, available here. Living Truth offers web-based ordering, a frequent shopper program, and they have a discount program for ministers. A solid option for neighborhood shoppers seeking a variety of Christian products, Living Truth had a fairly steady run of customers while I was around and seems like it's a go to spot for area persons of faith. For more information, visit its website as they have a wealth of information and a good amount of products available.

They have a children's section of fun books and gift basket/stocking stuffers. There is nothing like looking through a Bible before purchasing!

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.
