Sponsor spotlight: The ultimate guide to downtown Edmonds holiday shopping – My Edmonds News

Photo by Matt Hulbert

When you live and love local like we do, your approach to holiday gifting starts close to home. Investing in your city and its shops just feels good, and that special investment feels even better during the holidays.

With local love in mind, we created our ultimate guide to downtown shopping, which is overflowing (like your stocking) with recommendations from Downtown Edmonds businesses. Please note that they were all limited to a sentence or two to make this guide digestible and that there is always so much more to explore at each small business.

Bookmark this page and plan accordingly. Your holiday shopping success is assured when you spend in the place that has your heart.

Whether you’re on the hunt for cozy accessories or fine jewels, local wine, gift cards, home supplies or pretty much anything in between, you’ll check oodles of giftees off your list in one several-block fell swoop.

Start at First Dibs and then keep the festivities going. We can’t wait to see you tinseled out in Downtown Edmonds!
