Holiday season is coming, and we couldn’t be more excited! This season is all about being thankful and giving to others, and luckily Lee’s Summit has many wonderful shops and boutiques where you can find the perfect gifts for all your loved ones. Besides checking out our November Specials, here is a list of great local Lee’s Summit shops that we highly recommend for your holiday shopping.

Blue Heron Design

Blue Heron is a one-stop-shop for a variety of jewelry, accessories, and knickknacks. Something that makes this shop so special is its commitment to offering customers both fair trade and locally produced items. Fair trade products ensure that producers in developing countries receive fair wages for their work. Buying fair trade means that you know your money is going toward the fair wages for hard workers in the developing world. Some of Blue Heron’s featured fair trade products include sustainable jewelry by Zulugrass of Kenya and Wakami bracelets from Guatemala. Another Blue Heron favorite is their locally made jewelry. Their team consists of local artists who create one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry right here in Lee’s Summit. They even produce custom jewelry designs for individual customers, which means that finding a unique gift for your loved one is never hard to do at Blue Heron.

Lovin’ Soap Studio

The local Lovin’ Soap Studio is an offshoot of Lee’s Summit resident Amanda Griffin’s Lovin’ Soap Project, which is a non-profit that aims to empower women in developing countries through teaching the skill of soapmaking. At Griffin’s soapmaking studio she teaches patrons everything from the basics of making soap to making various molds, colors and designs. The gift of a specialty soapmaking class is perfect for your more creative and natural products loving friends and loved ones. In addition, the Lee’s Summit based Imperial Drifter line of beard care products produced by Griffin’s husband is available for purchase. These high-quality, natural products are the perfect men’s gifts this holiday season.

@jolly’s

@jolly’s is a fun and trendy boutique owned by a local mother-daughter duo Linda and Mallory. Their dynamic relationship brings plenty of laughter, fun, and heart into this local clothing boutique. They make shopping at their clothing store a real experience, so that it is impossible to leave their shop without a smile on your face. @jolly’s is always filled with seasonal favorites, new trends, and unique finds. It’s the only place you need to go to find the perfect gift for your most fashionable friend.
