It’s the Monday of Christmas week! Is your shopping done? If not, don’t panic. Many of the stores in Andersonville who normally are closed on Monday are open and ready to help you with your last-minute shopping needs. Spend $20 and we will even pay for your parking or CTA fare. Seriously.
Today’s Favorite Thing from the Andersonville Holiday Gift Guide is from a long-time neighborhood favorite, The Landmark of Andersonville. While no longer in her iconic co-op space at the corner of Clark & Berwyn, neighborhood fixture Jan Baxter is just a few storefronts south of her original location. With a distinctive collection of clothing, bath & beauty products, home accessories and jewelry made by American artists, The Landmark has long been a destination for great gifts. And if you don’t know what exactly you want, Jan and her staff are an incredibly helpful resource for finding the right gift.
Pandora Jewelry is such a great gift because it is the one you can keep giving! These modern day charm bracelets and necklaces feature a wide assortment of charms in every shape, in different metals and with precious and semi-precious stones. I am lucky enough to have a few people in my life who wear Pandora, so if I am stumped on a gift I can always go pick out a new charm that reminds me of the person for whom I am buying. It works for birthdays, seasonal holidays, romantic holidays both real and imagined (I’m looking at you Sweetest Day) and because there is such a wide variety to chose from you are always sure to put a smile on someone’s face!
Also featured from The Landmark of Andersonville are Lampe Berger Lamps and a wide assortment of Bath & Body Products.
