I tried to 'shop small' as much as possible this year and I found some really classy Christmas ornaments and other little gifts from their online shop.

On our way to Lawrence we popped in Anabel's and so glad we did. What a cute little gift shop that…read morethis town needed. It is quaint but packed with so many fun locally made items. You can easily find something for yourself or a wonderful gift. Everything in this shop is locally made and priced right. Such a variety; tea towels, candles, wax melts, popcorn, earrings, t-shirts and more. So many of these stores mark up their offerings and it makes it hard for locals to support local. Not Anabel's. The owner is so friendly and welcoming as well.

I about had a pengasm right there. But the Stetson hats were gorgeous as well. There's wallets (manly looking, but very finely crafted), money clips, and beautiful wooden containers to put on your dresser, holding your belongings. Part of the store has political bobbleheads...I want one so bad. Wonderful political paraphernalia that I loved so much. There's not many stores that catch my eye on Independence Square. This one, I'll return to, if just for the pens and bobbleheads. It will probably be a Saturday after I'm paid, cause I could easily spend quite a bit in this store. The employee was very kind and helpful, and Credence Clearwater Revival played on the stereo. It's an amazing store, and not just for men.

This shop deserves a lot of credit. This is the kind of place you don't really see. When I had last…read morevisited I remember all the selections of hats and classic memorabilia. It was super cool to somewhat step into a time machine and visit such a past, pure Americana. This is the kind of place where a boy can become a man. You can find a lot of vintage looking "things" and simply stroll around. I have to say the best part for me was the couches, you can sit in and relax a bit. And if I remember correctly Mr. Truman himself had gotten his first job at the spot next door when he was just a little boy. Remarkable location, a great way to honor someone and seriously, a beautifully crafted shop.

We recently stumbled upon Verdant after visiting a nearby estate sale and I'm so glad we did. It's…read morein a completely unexpected location. Many years ago when I lived in KC, I used to visit an Indian restaurant on the corner. Since then they've renovated the whole strip of shops - incredible job! Verdant had great candles and an array of unexpected household and gift items. The inside is very curated and stylish. We randomly decided to buy a stuffed rhino for the children we've yet to have. I can't wait to visit at holiday time.

Verdant is super cute. Walking in feels like stepping into a little European florist tucked away in…read moreKC. The space is beautifully curated with candles, décor, prepotted plants, and a "u pick" bouquet bar that's honestly such a fun touch. They also have premade bouquets ready to go if you don't feel like building your own. The flowers all give countryside rustic vibes like gardenias, dahlias, and roses, and the prepotted plants come in stylish pots. Prices I saw ranged from about $25 on the low end up to $200 for larger arrangements. I made myself a bouquet with geranium leaves, tea roses, and tuber rose, and it turned out really cute. That said, the service unfortunately took away from the experience. When we walked in, the young woman working did not greet us, ask if it was our first time, or engage at all while we shopped. After I selected my stems and waited at the register, she did swap out a broken rose for me, which I appreciated, but there was still no eye contact or conversation. What stung was watching her interact warmly with another customer and even ask about what brought her in, while I was never acknowledged. For a place that feels so special, I was hoping the customer service would match the atmosphere. I am knocking off 2 stars for that, because it left the visit feeling disappointing. I would love to come back and hopefully catch a more engaging experience with whoever is working that day.

Very nice location with a lot of other stuff going on so works very well into a walk around the area.
