Market Friday: A Neighborhood Gift Shop

in #marketfriday5 years ago (edited)

I am stoked to join everyone all over the world in today's #marketfriday- a tag initiated and hosted by the very charming @dswigle!


It was the birthday of a member of my staff yesterday, so I went to a "gift" shop the day before to get the appropriate present for her.


The advantage of going to these kinds of shops is that they carry a variety of items in a much smaller area [this one is smaller than my office] than a department store, and which often include all sorts of stuff and things appropriate for gifts!


Coffee mugs, hand towels, t-shirts, bathrobes, sweaters, cardigans, beanies, photo frames, blanket throws, stuffed toys, handbags...
Outerwear, fashion jewelry, scarves, table decor, wine glasses, beverage coasters, lamps, nightlights, candles, dessert plates...
Shirts, shawls, leggings, socks, handmade collections, Christmas decor, ornaments, etc., etc., etc..
And oh, this gift shop had snacks too!
This is what I got her- a beautiful knitted poncho!

And the fantastic thing is: I was in and out in 15 minutes!

Market Friday is a tag initiated by @dswigle. Thank you for this opportunity to show a neighborhood gift shop, and thanks most especially to @tattoodjay for his encourgaement.


Thank you for viewing this article. I will see you again soon!

Hey there, have a great weekend huh? 🙂

Hello! So, you are on a trip? I was just by your blog. Lovely writing! I wish I could write as you do. Alas, I am not that creative.
Safe travels, my friend @galenkp, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

Thanks Silv...Yes, flew away to Melbourne then Launceston for the weekend. Should be good...Just a quick trip before Christmas. I hope you're well, and shining like silver.

Family celebrations are really special. Is your brother graduating from high school or college, or his graduate degree? I bet you'll come home with insights to share with us. Looking forward to your return, @galenkp! Take care 🥰🌺🤙

My brother is an electrical engineer and wanted to change directions. Graduating as a nautical engineer from University today for that degree. He works designing warship stuff already, today is just the graduation. (he's 45 years old). A smart dude.

Wow... sounds like a very specialized field. Engineering in itself is a difficult course.. yes, he must be smart! am reminded of private contractor careers in the US military. Does he currently work for a private firm in Australia?

Posted using Partiko iOS

Yes, it's very specialised. Only 7 places in the world to gain the degree, and yes he works for a private firm. He is enjoying it and after all the work he has put in I'm glad for him.

How can I think of shopping when I'm too cozy now to do anything else? Lol.💝🤗

I know the feeling. I enjoy online shopping a lot too, sis @kerrislravenhill.
How are you, sis? I hope all is well. Take care 🥰🌺🤙 and a million Hugs and Kisses 🤗💕💋!!!!

Look slike such cool little stores, I much prefer small stores like this to big department stores where there is so much you can get lost and never find what your looking for

Exactly, @tattoodjay. I really like smaller stores and small business establishments owned by local entrepreneurs. And it saves one a lot of walking around a place that displays a rack full or a display stand, and shelves of the same thing. Have a wonderful weekend ahead, my friend, take care 🥰🌺🤙

Thats exactly how I feel :) and you to have a good weekend ;)

Happy #MarketFriday @SilverSaver888~!!

I love to visit neighborhood shops or privately owned establishments. It is so much more rewarding to me, knowing that I am supporting the local economy instead of big business.

They always seem to have things for sale that I cannot find other places, and there aren't a hundred of them in the same size, color, shape, etc. Plus, I probably know the owners.

You are so sweet, joining the challenge and giving us a great post to go along with it. Don't be afraid to do one on a new piece of silver coming in! You know we would love to see one! Thanks again and I wish you a most wonderful weekend!

MarketFriday loves you!

And we love you too❤️, @dswigle! Yes, like you, I am a believer of supporting local businesses in my town! Some of the first owners of businesses here were started by the current owners’ grandparents... isn’t that neat! We have a thriving old downtown. Hmmmm... I think I will share that next Friday! Until then, I want to thank you again for your encouragement and for initiating this awesome tag that steemians like me all over the world enjoy! Have a beautiful day, my friend and take care 🥰🌺🤙

You bought someone a poncho! Last time I went somewhere with my boss I ended up paying for his parking! 🤣😂

Hehehe, I have to set aside a bit for everyone’s birthday! When is your birthday, dearest @dfinney?
Haha, fortunately for me, my boss doesn’t expect me to pay for his parking ticket! He gets reimbursed for those 👍 😆.
Have a fantastic weekend, my friend with a most lovely smile 😊 Take care🥰🌺🤙
