Finding the perfect Christmas gift can be so hard. We’ve all been there, right? We scour the internet, looking for ideas on Pinterest, and run to the mall and try to find the exact match to what we found online…does that sound familiar?
Stop….no more mall shopping!
It’s time to shop local, and I have you covered.
Ashland is my hometown, and I believe in shopping and supporting our local businesses…especially during this pandemic. So here are my choices for where you should shop local this holiday season:

Paddington Station has been a staple here in Ashland for over 45 years. Here you will find jewelry, clothing, books, toys, cookware, home decor, and so much more. Honestly, I can not think of a better place to find the perfect holiday gift.

Any cook in the family will love some olive oil or balsamic vinegar from Press for Oil. Here shoppers will find an array of infused oils and vinegars. Some of my favorites include Garlic Olive Oil and Honey Ginger White Balsamic. And when we get back to pre-Covid protocols, you can sample the flavors and learn how to mix and match to create great salad dressings and marinades.

If you are looking for a gift that smells good and is also calming, check out Pelindaba Lavender. No matter who you are shopping for this season, you are sure to find something here for everyone. Pelindaba Lavender carries everything from lotion, hand sanitizer, candles, cooking supplies, laundry soap, jewelry to pet supplies.
Hopefully, I have given you a few great ideas for how you can shop this holiday season locally. Oh, and for those who want to shop from home, each of these stores offers online shopping.
Happy Holidays and happy shopping!
