In late 2025, it was observed by Optopolis that a shop called Himalayan Gifts was setting up shop at the original FRIENDS Creative Studio space (also former Samuel's Jewelers). In early January, Optopolis saw that they were working to move to the old Claire's space, next door to TCBY Pretzelmakers.
