PSA -PRESENT GLOUCESTER IS LOCATED AT 286 MAIN STREET, NEXT TO ALEXANDRA’S BREAD!

During the podcast this morning I mistakenly suggested that Present Gloucester, the delightfully whimsical holiday pop-up shop, was located at last years’ location.

This year Present has popped-up at 263 Main Street, right next door to the fabulous Alexandra’s Bread, which is also chock-a-block full of wonderful holiday treasures.

LADIES NIGHT TONIGHT!

Some of our favorite shops are off the beaten trail or far up Main Street. Don’t forget to shop at Alexandra’s Bread, Maritime Gloucester, Present Gloucester, and Backyard Grower’s Holiday Pop up Shop. See you tonight!

WHISMY AND WONDERMENT AT THE PRESENT GLOUCESTER GRAND OPENING!

Beautiful, beautiful handmade wonderments can be found at Present Gloucester. Located this year at 186 Main Street, the open, sunny space is perfect for showcasing the whimsical, and often nature-inspired, gifts. You’ll find holiday ornaments, clothing, jewelry, original prints, hats, mittens, dolls and doll clothes, tree toppers, colorful yarn, teacup-sized decor, seahorses, and much, much more. Come do your shopping at Present Gloucester and be swept into the holiday spirit with magical fancy and imagination.
