Who doesn’t like plants! Stop by Natural Selection or Sierra Water Gardens to pick out the perfect house plant or succulent for the plant mom in your life. Both stores carry unique plant pots & other trinkets as well!

Something Vintage

The Nest has great vintage gifts of so many types. Vintage couches, blankets, clothes, dishes, books, & all sorts of decor. I love giving gifts from this local shop. Junkee’s in another shop in town that has items like vintage toys, furniture, & tons of collector items. You can’t got wrong getting a gift from either of these places.

Something Brewed

Or to one of our local coffee shops, like Old World, The Hub, Coffeebar, Magpie, or Vertical Coffee Roasters to get them a bag of beans to brew at home. Throw in a gift card, tee, or mug & you just won Christmas!

Something Chocolate

Locally made chocolate, what a treat! Sugar Love Chocolates inside The Basement has the best flavors with such great detailing in their decorations. Dorinda’s Chocolates have a wide assortments & all the classics. Get a bag of both & be the judge of who is better!

I hope you enjoy the last few days to shop! Remember, no matter what you get them, they will be thrilled that you thought of them in the first place.
