My first time 'burning' a hat. It was a bit intimidating at first, but once I got the hang of it I…read morecalmed down. The guidance at the beginning of the workshop could have been a bit better. Quite unstructured. I prefer concise instructions. Such as: First get your seat, then pick out your hat, then pick out your design, trace it, transfer to hat, burn it, lastly pick out embellishments. Eventually we figured it out and the instructors did come to the various tables and helped us individually with our projects. Offered help and suggestions. Greatly appreciated. Also a lot of choices were made available for hats, designs as well as embellishments. It was really hard to choose from all of it. I think my hat turned out pretty good for a first try. They also offer many other classes such as candle making, painting, knitting and so on.

I must say we were a bit intimidated by the options and inability to know what the final product would smell like. However, the experience of creating something with people you care about was worth the risk and made for lots of laughs. The shop offers a variety of other crafts and has beautiful items for sale. The owner is kind, personable, welcoming, and helpful. She amazing! I highly recommend participating in one of their workshops, there's also kid friendly and custom options.

I stopped by Foundry 317 during a recent jaunt through Broad Ripple during unseasonably warm temps…read more I parked my car and just enjoyed wheeling around the area for a bit. Foundry 317 is along the canal right on Westfield Boulevard. Foundry 317 focuses on home decor and furniture. I clearly arrived right at the tail-end of the holiday season and a good number of the items either had a holiday theme or fit within the holiday season. Items included antiques, one-of-a-kind furniture pieces, festive accents, candles, and other overall housing items. Foundry 317 has a parking lot, though I was actually wheeling there. There's a small ramp up to the sidewalk if you approach it from the right (facing Foundry 317). The doorway is pretty workable and I found the interior to be surprisingly accessible (though I will admit I was taking extra caution given some of the prices!). As I was wheeling, I knew it was pretty unlikely I'd actually buy anything on this visit as it would have been difficult to carry back to my car. However, I definitely saw some items I loved and can easily see myself returning in the near future. The employee I encountered was friendly, the environment was warm and inviting, and I really loved some of the smaller items. I'm a candle freak and definitely would like to return for those. I've always found this section of Westfield Blvd. a little hit-and-miss. The sidewalk is kind of cracked and it's somewhat uneven, however, there's much to love here and I loved the efforts toward accessibility. This is definitely a little gem. I'd seen it before, however, I've never been by when they were open. I finally got the chance to visit, and I'm definitely impressed. I'll be back.

They have a lot of great classes they offer each month. They have a large variety of items from new to vintage and you can really tell the owner is picky with whom she allows to set up in her shop. The shop itself is really big and set up so elegantly you could easily wander and shop for an hour. Kathy's shop is a definite must see when you are strolling around Fortville. I just wish I took more pictures to share but i was so drawn into looking around i forgot. This town is also a great place for some amazing fall pictures or photographers in general. Don't forget to check out the gorgeous benches and outdoor decor while you are there;)

They were having a little wine party in the store to celebrate Small Business Saturday and the mood was very festive. It seems like a fun place to hang out, and a very calming atmosphere, lot of room between fixtures in the store and a little seating area. The clothes are probably for the 20-mid 40 something crowd. I didn't find anything for myself but saw a lot of things for my daughter. I did buy a soy candle that was locally made in Fishers. The saying on the glass jar reminded me of someone and will make a perfect hostess gift.

A few days before Christmas, I checked Yelp for a great florist and encountered the Rusted Window. I loved that I could see their beautiful holiday bouquets, gifts and decor on their website before ordering. I was able to order everything online and it was super easy and quick. The owner called me the next day with drop-off info and she was so sweet and friendly on the phone. The flowers were delivered on time and my grandma said that they smelled amazing. I was able to add a note to our bouquet too and it felt so wonderful that my grandma got that surprise without me being able to leave the house. Thank you!

The shop has a little bit of everything. Home Decor? Candles? Just Pop in! popcorn? Women's Clothing? Floral arrangements? Yes to all! I will say I was surprised that there wasn't more floor space since it looks rather roomy from the parking lot. But once inside, there are basically two rooms for shopping while the rest of the space is storage area behind the counter. The staff was friendly and offered to assist in finding something. The space was organized and arranged so that it presented the items in groupings that made sense, not cluttered like some spaces. Review #2098
