Stuck for Christmas gifts? Shop local in Kensington

With Christmas fast approaching I went searching for local businesses in Kensington that’ll tick off everything on the Christmas list.

I can’t believe I’d never been into this store before, it had such an incredible range with so many great Christmas present options.

There are clothes, homewares, jewelry, vases, plant pots, games, an awesome range of kids presents, and more.

The owner also showed me a secret bookstore they have tucked in the back, which was full of new and second-hand books.

With a vast selection of wines, beers, spirits, and non-alcoholic drinks, there’s a beverage for everyone.

They’ve also got a range of other gift options including whiskey and wine glasses, stubby holders, chili oil, sauces, chocolate, and everything needed for a cheese board.
