Brown + Green Florist’s Holiday Display!

The holiday’s are approaching so quickly! I don’t know about you, but I love gift giving. It’s something that fills a lot of people with fear, but it doesn’t have to! I try and shop mostly if not only local for my gifts. This year that’s especially important! Here’s a little list of my favorite things and shops I hope inspires you and makes gift giving fun.

Victory Vintage and Brown + Greene Florists

These two shops sit right next to each other in the Linden Hills neighborhood and are filled to the brim with perfect gifts. I always love the ornaments and blankets from Victory and while Brown + Green is a florist they also have the darndest Christmas display, trinkets and of course floral arrangements.

France 44 Liquor & Cheese Shop

For the foodie in your life, France 44 is the place to be. They’re my go-to for client gifts when I want to treat them with a celebratory bottle of bubbly or some gourmet fun international treats. They have a gift basket section on their website you can order to pick up filled with an assortment of wine, cheese and meats.

Thymes

This is for anyone who loves fragrance. I always get compliments on how good my home smells when these candles are lit. In addition to candles, thymes makes lotions, soaps and lots more. They have an option on their site to search for gifts and narrow down the perfect treat for whoever is on your list.

Cashmere

For a cozy holiday gift I love to gift something cashmere. Cashmere sweaters and scarves are so soft and warm. They’ll think of you again and again through our cold winters. To shop local, I’ve seen cashmere at Roe & Wolf and other local boutiques!

Quality Cookware

We all know that person who loves to be cooking something up in the kitchen. In my family that’s definitely me! I like to peruse Cooks of Crocus Hill for quality cookware and kitchen accessories any home chef will love.

Truff Hot Sauce

Speaking of those who love to cook, Truff hot sauce is always on my list. It’s a game changer of a hot sauce, and it’s infused with truffles! Who knew. It’s the perfect stocking stuffer for the spice lover!
