GIFTS FOR HER

“Oh, I don’t need another pair of shoes”, said no woman ever. Downtown boutique, Firefly, has a  collection full of stylish shoes that every woman has been eyeing all year long. Treat her right with a pair of new boots this winter and make her feel like the queen you know she is! They have more than just shoes, shop their casual and high-end clothing that includes adorable sweaters, purses, cozy slippers, charming earrings, and Holiday glitz options perfect for her wardrobe. 

When the air cools every lady knows what that means---sweater weather! Stop by The French Vill’Edge downtown and pick out a cute sweater for her to cozy up in this winter. With new arrivals weekly, this boutique offers versatile styles at affordable prices. Every woman loves getting to add a new sweater to her wardrobe!

Wanting that perfect gift to sparkle? A jeweled pendant necklace, gemstone ring, or a new pair of diamond earrings from J.C. Grant Company Jewelers is sure to leave her feeling like a princess. It could be the perfect thing for her to wear during your next evening out together! We’re loving their new Julie Voss line for an upscale day-to-night wear look! 

If she has an eye for decorating her home (obsessed with Joanna Gaines, anyone?), find a unique home decoration at Market Collective! There's something for every room in the house, with products that are unique for gifting as well as some vintage treasures. Support local entrepreneurs when you make your purchase, as many of the products are collected from all around Georgia. Gift a bar of wonderfully scented homemade soap, darling hand towels, or throw blankets to give her home the gift of charm!

Find everything you are looking for, decorative accents for her or her home, at Eclectic! It is one of those shops where you wander in and always find something you 'need'. Stumble across unique accessories that remind you of her, cute earrings or fashionable rings. If Milledgeville holds a special place in her heart, Eclectic offers Milledgeville and Lake Sinclair decor. You are sure to find something perfect to her liking at the little shop in downtown Milly. 

If she has mastered your air fryer, tried the home delivery meals, and is just tired of coming up with dinner ideas, it may be time to take her out for a meal. Enjoy a romantic evening in downtown Milledgeville and delicious cuisine that includes steak and seafood at The Reel Grill! Not ready to dine out? Buy a gift card and mark her calendar. For an added touch, just ask for the special table in the vault for two that’s lit by candlelight, creating a lovely ambiance with a glass of wine to top it all off. It is sure to be a special night to remember. 

Score some extra points this year by gifting the simple joy of relaxation and a pampering treatment.  There’s nothing that makes a woman feel more relaxed and refreshed than a day at the spa. This Christmas, treat her to a “Charmed Day Package” at Charmed Spa and Salon! It includes an illuminating facial, a 30-minute massage, spa mani & pedi. There are also individual packages if she wants simply a pedicure, manicure or massage, etc.--however you spin it, she will leave feeling oh so relaxed!

GIFTS FOR HIM
