Whether it’s a stocking stuffer or a heartfelt keepsake, Bea and Bleux’s home-in-a-store vibe at once reminds us of childhood Christmas excursions and Hallmark movie immersions, with gift ideas leaping straight off the walls, over the displays, and out the nooks and crannies! Overall, this is the perfect place for gift-givers looking to surprise, tell a story, or make a last-minute purchase.
Hello Local
At Hello Local, shoppers discover a minimalist space that spotlights local artisans and their craft. Mark Cloud created this space for NWA creators, such that Hello Local could be their storefront and give the rest of us an opportunity to purchase something close to home, and therefore close to our hearts. Here you can find handmade soaps, candles, jams, prints, and small-batch goods, each telling a story of homegrown creativity that feels just right under our trees. Every purchase supports local makers, every item feels intentional, and every scent, color, or texture reminds us that the best gifts are made right here in Springdale.
