Phinneywood Gift Guide 2022
Supply chain shortages, shipping delays… we’ve heard the warnings. But, what if this year, Phinneywood neighbors bought as many gifts as possible from our local businesses? Avoid the stress and support our local community, it’s a win for all! The Phinney Neighborhood Association’s Business Group debuted a local gift guide in 2020 to remind our neighborhood that the best gifts are within walking distance and to support our business district.
While it can be convenient to sit at home and pick up presents off the porch, you are missing out on a friendly hello and a personal recommendation from a fun crew member at Snapdoodle Toys, a knowledgeable knitter at the Fiber Gallery, or a truly unique handmade gift from a small local maker. These folks can help you pick out something unique and perfect for everyone on your list, and you can help them by supporting their business and our local economy.
Not sure where to start? Read on and find some great suggestions from our business district for favorite stocking stuffer, favorite gift, and most unique gift.
