The start of November brings to mind all things Holidays! Just weeks from Thanksgiving & Christmas, we are entering into a fun, but very busy time of year. The next couple of months can be a blur of events, dinners, parties, gift exchanges, and sporting events!
For many of us, we’ve either begun Christmas shopping or started thinking about Christmas shopping. Before it gets to be the rush of the season and people start ordering random things online or buying gift cards at the drug store, take a moment to look at some local businesses right here in the downtown that provide both unique and thoughtful gifts to your loved ones as well as a deeper impact to the local economy.
Great choices for men, women, and teens, on your list who love clothing, shoes, and accessories: Crowe’s Shoes, Don Nash Limited, Carrousel Gift Shop, The Boot Life, Bloom Boutique, and What Goes ‘Round Thrift Shoppe.
For the art lover, you can find great gifts at Element of Art, Lucah Designs, and Studio Linden.
Hard to shop for people that enjoy unique gifts and antiques: Mansfield Antiques Gallery, What Goes ‘Round Thrift Shoppe.
Jewelry always makes a great gift and we have some great options downtown at some of the above places like Mansfield Antiques Gallery, Richland Carrousel Park Gift Shop, and What Goes ‘Round Thrift Shoppe as well as Johnson Brother’s Jewelry, and Haring Jewelers.
For the sports, games, and collectors of fan merch, be sure to visit Operation Fandom/Blackbird Records. Not only do they have awesome fan merch, but they have a great selection of records!
Great gifts for cigar smokers can be found at City News/Suzys Smoke Room and Tobacco Road
Flowers are always a great gift. Stop in Kafer’s Floral or Tara’s Floral expression anytime to order a holiday delivery!
For children’s items, the Carrousel Gift Shoppe is a great spot to find fun for even the smallest child.
And last but never least, the Tiny Tim Shoppe will open on November 19th and be open every Saturday through Christmas as well as on December 2nd for the Christmas Tree Lighting. Reservations for shopping can be found online at www.shopdineexploreandmore.com/tinytimshoppe
Come back for the next edition which will feature Things to Do downtown this holiday season!
