The holidays are here—find local shopkeepers who’ll help you make your list and checkout, so you can make room for more merry! Head to Germantown Hardware for sleds under the tree, a wow-ready gift that brings immediate joy with the first snowfall. Secure snow boots and gear now, so you’re ready to Ski Galloway.
Ménage Stationery carries stockings that aren’t meant for the mantle. Bauble Stockings are handheld charmers—needlepoint vessels for gift-giving. Hide clues for a scavenger hunt, leading to the final present. Slip in a small trinket to preview an upcoming trip or adventure. Designed to become Christmas heirlooms, they help keep the gift-giving traditions alive.
For the entertainer who seems to have it all, these high-gloss lacquer bowls—crafted from bamboo—bring both polish and practicality. Ménage offers a dozen colors in nearly every size, pretty enough to pair with her china and sturdy enough to cradle fruit on the kitchen island. They shine at buffets and family-style dinners alike. You’ll find other unique kitchen and entertaining pieces to elevate all of your gifting.
While you wait for the beautiful giftwrap, peep the new day planners – a bright new year is almost here!
Millstone Market & Nursery is a source for gardening and outdoor living, but did you know they’ll also help you set a table? If your mom loves to entertain, peruse the hand block printed table linens. And to bring the outside in, select a planter to gift as a centerpiece.
Margot Decoration brings The Drink Box by Fieldbar to Memphis. Made in Cape Town, South Africa, it’s sustainably designed, light and so stylish you can leave it out in plain sight. It can hold two magnums of champagne and be toted easily to an outdoor concert, yardy, or the beach. And for those on a hunt or a picnic? It can keep beverages cool for 50 hours.
You can source all your talisman needs at Paradox at PeCo. For family game night or your niece’s college dorm- a Mancala set. We are also snagging affirmation cards for our book club and teens that are way better than Instagram motivational posts.
Slice-and-bake? Never. Donna’s Dough (@donnas_dough) has a cult following for a reason. Picture perfectly rounded dough spheres, a lineup of flavors, and a finishing kiss of sea salt. No need to thaw, quick to bake—just add a festive bow straight from the freezer.
You’ll need to stop at City & State to fuel your sleigh ride. Don’t miss the gift shop for all ages on your list. A favorite culinary find? Greek olive oil and spaghetti dust (the best sort of sorcery).
A sammy tray from Hard Time’s Deli is a respite from the traditional holiday spread. So order one for your in between party hopping nights. Be sure to add a jar of their house-made sauces.
Oxbeau is dad gear headquarters. Wrap up this Marine Layer corduroy shirt and pants set for his new uniform, suitable for a Memphis winter. A Yorkshire suede shacket can elevate his style when the dress code is not quite cocktail, but a step up from a pullover.
Midtown Bramble & Bloom (@midtownbramble) is a local floral farm and florist. Their flower subscriptions are the perfect Hanukkah happy or stocking surprise. From tulips to peonies, your favorite person can receive a rotating chorus of seasonal stems. The subscriptions start when the varietals start blooming so each delivery feels like a surprise.
