 Large shop with wide aisles |

The surprises are in a store called Happy Names that will engrave or paint anything you buy with your name or someone's else's, and has an interesting array of food items, including dips and candies.

 Art, antiques and more |
4615 Poplar Avenue Memphis, TN 38117 United States +1 901 685 3200 |
Although a sign on the door tells you this charming shop sells antiques, check out the art work, too. The antiques are just a small collection of furniture in a variety of eras, styles and functions. It's the artwork that makes this place worth a visit. Most is in the primitive or folk art genre and is delightful. Clay sculptures, as small as a pack of playing cards, to oil paintings large enough to dominate an entire wall are intriguing. Much of the art has a religious theme. Review © 2007, Wcities |

On the second trip around the mall, stop at the coffee bar in the middle of the atrium for a cappuccino or mocha freeze. Review © 2007, Wcities |

This small shopping mall in East Memphis is set in a park-like area with large trees shading the parking lot on the Poplar Avenue side.

This is a good place to buy gently used clothing for children, from infants through size 20 for boys and junior/preteen for girls. Better organized than a church bazaar, this store uses tickets on these outfits to tell how much they will be marked down week by week - if they do not sell first. The best value by far are the 0 to 9 month outfits many of which still have the retail tags on them. Other items on offer include a small selection of toys, shoes and books, all on consignment.
