Magical gifts that strike a chord of delight

Hamilton House has almost finished stocking its newest holiday merchandise. Barbara Stacy is looking forward to spending fewer hours at the store. She’s turned over the reins to daughter-in-law Shawntel Stacy. Ruth Anne, the Hamilton House cat, will also be spending more time at home. Instead, shoppers will be greeted by the coo of two blue diamond doves. 

The Hamilton House tradition of offering an atmosphere, service and merchandise not found elsewhere continues. This is no run-of-the-mill gift shop, and it’s certainly not a ho-hum big box store. Shopping at Hamilton House is fun and can feel a bit magical, especially around the holidays. Gifts here strike a chord of true delight. 

Shoppers will appreciate new holiday selections for children, teens and adults. (Men were not ignored.) Many Hamilton House holiday items will be back by popular demand: Nest Holiday candles and other home fragrances; 2018 calendar tea towels from Le Jacquard Francais; Wristees (fingerless gloves); Bare Foot Dreams blankets, calypsos and wraps; marshmallow and chocolate hot chocolate stirrers; Niven Morgan Gold and Lavender Mint bath and body products, including a candle scented with blue cypress and absinthe perfect for making things smell festive; and Cucino brand home fragrances, scented with coriander and olive tree wood. The olive oil based hand cleaners soften as they clean. 

Hamilton House continues its commitment to offering out-of-the-ordinary, whimsical and endearing gifts in all price ranges season after season.
