I know the struggle is real when it comes to choosing what to buy as a Christmas gift for our…read morefamily. So the week before, hubs and I scoured this tiny- but mighty shop at the corner of Tannery Brook Rd & Tinker St. in Woodstock. The size of this shop makes it cute. The location is cute. Hell, the products are cute. These ladies have a selection of minimalist-meets-unusual lifestyle and home items ranging from candles, door stoppers, jewelry, blankets, throws, outdoor mats and so much more done tastefully. This was almost a one-stop-shop place for us as we crossed some people off our Christmas list. Between the sofa pillow I got for my Mom, (2) small ceramic candle holders, a fuzzy scarf and tapered candles- things were looking good. Since my daughter's sorority's mascot is an Elephant, I also purchased her an Elephant wooden door stopper I couldn't pass up. List or not, I'd come back any other time to pick up something for myself.

When you enter, there's a friendly vibe and open interior that welcome you in. You likely won't find any bargains which is to be expected for a local business. There are a few couches that are very comfy but not much seating overall. They also have a bathroom for customers. Located near the waterfront, this place has street parking or a municipal lot that isn't too far.

We visited this flea market while we were in the village and had a fun time. First thing to note,…read moremuch of it is under trees, so there is shade as you walk around. That was a major plus. I am no stranger to flea markets, but what I loved about this one was the friendliness of the vendors. All were welcoming and willing to strike up conversation, especially about music. A great deal of finds hide here, including vinyl, China, jewelry, gemstones, print media, art, antiques, clothing, vintage, handbags, etc. There is a little something for everyone. Overall, a very fun experience. Try it out!

Tucked away in the famous Woodstock strip, is a quiet street around the corner from Bread Alone:…read moreMaple Ln. Woodstock is a diverse and eclectic town but it's also famous for its Mower's Flea Market every Saturday and Sunday in a big grassy area. Hubs and I have always made it a point every time we come to Woodstock in the last 20 years, to stop here first (out of nostalgia) before making the drive down home. Quite honestly, we've scored several hand-made pieces and a vintage Dashiki hubs had found for me. Mower's is made up of several vendors all selling something different. Over the years though, the amount of vendors have dropped. And forget about COVID last year- because it didn't take place and was weird looking at vendor-less lot when we came to the area for a day trip in the Fall of '20. But alas, Mower's is back in business and we were delighted to see more vendors (almost) recently like we used to 20 years ago. You'll find antiques, memorabilia, some kitsch- the same way you'll find locally made products. The way I see it, it's a shopping haven for me. Just make sure you get here before they close for the season in November.

Firstly, when you step through the door, you feel as though you are transported to a different time and place. The owner has created an atmosphere that is truly magnificent. We were amazed at how the shop looked once we stepped in. The shop is well-organized and the staff are friendly and kind. I have never seen a more beautiful selection of artisanal candles. We particularly liked the ones with quotes from famous musicians and authors. Pricing is reflective of the quality. These candles are works of art. If you are looking for a gift while in Woodstock, this is a great place to look.
