    As the sign says, you never know what you might find at Patti’s Mall in Plainfield, and we were delighted to discover unique 3D-printed lamps featuring designs ranging from Colts and animated characters to more general holiday themes. Cody O’Riley makes and designs them locally, and they are sure to be a hit this shopping season!

    2. Chocolate Gift Kits

    Perfect for that hard-to-buy-for person in your life, these chocolate gift kits are themed for teachers, firefighters, police officers, nurses and more. They also make kits for wine lovers and new homeowners.

    3. Tardis-Themed Yahtzee Game

    Tardi Themed Yahtzee Game
    Location: Who North America in Camby
    Price: $29.95
    Rolling dice out of the TARDIS? That is Doctor Who Yahtzee. You’ll only find it in one place: WHO North America in Camby. This gift shop and museum is the only Doctor Who-themed store in America, and it has everything a fan of the show could ever put on their wish list. The store has the lone supply of four different Doctor Who board games, meaning you’ll only find them in Hendricks County! This is a must-stop if you’re shopping for gamers or fans of Doctor Who!

    4. Dog Advent Calendar

    Dog Advent Calendar

    Location: Paw Street Bakery in Plainfield
    Price: $25-$30
    Advent calendars are a fun holiday tradition, and as it turns out, dogs love them too! Paw Street Bakery has 12- and 25-day Advent calendars for the furry friend on your list. And the best part? You can get a boxed advent calendar or one that hangs on your wall, and you can refill each year with fresh-baked treats made locally in Plainfield!

    5. Local Artist Painted Ornaments & Children’s Book

    Copper Top Gifts

    Location: Copper Top Customs in Clayton
    Price: Starting at $8
    Painter Matthew Piotrowicz recently moved to the county and is gaining popularity for his true-to-life portraits, decorations and children’s book. We found his work at Copper Top Customs in Clayton. A great children’s gift is “The Super Splashy Spectacular ABCs of Animals” book and flashcards. It provides a fun way to learn the ABCs. Additionally, prints of his holiday paintings are available, and you can even hire him to do a portrait of your pet! Finally, his hand-painted wooden ornaments are beautiful and would make a great addition to anyone’s tree this holiday season!

    6. Bleached Shirts

    Bleached Shirts

    Location: Style Threads in Avon
    Price: $23-$34
    We loved this reuse of quality tees, hoodies and flannels, some featuring IU, Pacers, Colts and other designs. Style Threads uses a process that gives the clothing a distressed, tie-dye look, making every item unique.
     

    7. Initial Necklaces in Glass Jars

    Initial Necklaces in Glass Jars

    Locations: Seize the Night Designs in Danville
    Price: $14
    Perfect for that special someone, we found these adorable, hand-stamped initial necklaces in a giftable glass jar at Seize the Night Designs on the square in Danville. Each pendant is attached to an 18-inch stainless steel chain.

    8.  Wooden Coasters

    Wooden Coasters

    Location: Forget-Me-Nots in Danville
    Price: $6 each
    One of our favorite places to explore during our Gift Guide scouting is Forget-Me-Nots in Danville. Filled with barnwood creations, we discovered hand-crafted wood coasters this year, each with an outline of the state of Indiana and a town name. The store will take custom orders through the holidays.

    9. Handmade Bird Houses

    Handmade Bird Houses

    Location: Gallery on the Square in Danville
    Price: $59-$79
    What started as a hobby turned into an art form for local artist Steve Gilliatte. He thoughtfully designs each custom-made birdhouse with proper ventilation, cleanouts and hole sizes suited to Indiana’s native birds. He uses durable woods, like white pine, his artistic talent and safe acrylic paints and sealants — never varnishes or materials that could harm the birds — to build dwellings that not only last but are fun and eye-catching.

    10. Snowmen Salt Shakers

    Snowmen Salt Shakers

    Location: Roots To Wings in Brownsburg
    Price: $10-$15
    We loved this great reuse of old salt-and-pepper shakers. Soni Birch from Brownsburg turned silver salt shakers into fun snowmen holiday decorator pieces that would be great for anyone who is into antiques and loves to decorate their home for the holidays. Another top holiday gift guide destination, you can discover so much more inside Roots to Wings consignment shop.

    11. Tea Cup Gift Set

    13. Charcuterie Boards

    Charcuterie Boards

    Location: The Hayloft in Brownsburg
    Price: $50-$80
    We loved these eye-catching handmade charcuterie boards made by Thompson Enterprises in Avon. You can purchase empty boards or choose from a variety of meats, cheeses, jellies and more at The Hayloft and have them prepared at the store. Choose from walnut and maple, with a checkered pattern, or select the type of wood you prefer. You can also request custom pieces for different sizes to meet your needs. Allow one to two weeks for processing and delivery on made-to-order items. 

    14. 12 Nights of Wine

    12 Nights of Wine

    Location: Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant in Avon
    Price: $120
    Wine lovers will enjoy this 12-day Cooper’s Hawk wine advent calendar. The box includes 12 different wine varieties from the restaurant’s private selection. Most of the wines chosen for the Advent box are previous favorites that are no longer served at their restaurant, and each bottle is specially packaged.

Board & Brush is a DIY workshop adventure that allows visitors of all abilities to build their own wood signs through guided instruction in a relaxed environment.

    16. Experience: Indoor Family Fun at Urban Air & Slick City

    Urban Air & Slick City

    Location: Urban Air Adventure Park in Plainfield and Slick City Action Park in Brownsburg
    Price: Price Varies
    Getting out of the house and getting the wiggles out are both important during the winter season. Have you checked out the two indoor adventure parks that have opened in Hendricks County most recently? Urban Air in Plainfield dares visitors to explore the air up there with trampolines, zip lines, obstacle courses, climbing walls and more.
