Early shopping

My friend and I went shopping at Lewis Ginter Gardens gift shop.  Beautifully decorated.   Shoppers are greeted with a  glass of champagne or Sparkling apple cider.  Live music in the background. 
I am posting a few pictures of the evening.    You can still enlarge the photos by clicking on them.

There were large lanterns on very tall silver tree

I purchased two items,  I will go back again when I am more in the mood for shopping

The soap is made in France,  the scent is strong

A pretty handmade bracelet in nice packaging

"Through The Garden Gate"

Vintage decorations and handmade items

homemade paper cones, little bags and many more

Very much like the trunk filled with Christmas decor.  

Steve bought me this handmade reindeer candle holder today - the bag and wrapping is special also in this shop.

I am in the mood for decorating now,   gonna have to get the trees out of storage.
Till next time - betsy
