Stocking Stuffers a la Georgetown
I am fortunate enough to live in Georgetown – an urban village in DC with cobblestone streets, historic
architecture, charming restaurants and fabulous shopping – the perfect setting for Christmas. So
as things quiet down, I'm going to grab a latté, enjoy my city, and pick up stocking stuffers from my
favorite vendors. Below are nine items you may want to pick up for yourself. But buyers beware,
some of these items are one of a kind and I may have already beaten you to the punch. ; )

Christine – I picked up one of the owl ornaments for my own tree. Oliver Dunn has an incredible assortment of ornaments (among other fabulous accessories) this year. You should give them a call – I’m sure they ship. I’ve included the info below; it’s a 2009 Apartment Therapy feature written by my friend Leah Moss. And BTW, your latest post was PERFECTION!

Michelle – Did you pick up anything today? I somehow managed to buy something for myself with every gift I purchased this year. The Georgetown vendors have such great stuff!
