It’s time for The East’s annual Guide to East Coast Christmas Gift Giving, here to bring you those warm fuzzy feelings in those final desperate moments of your Christmas shopping. That special brand of magic is brought to you, not just in the perfect assortment of gifts for the people in your life, but in the knowledge that you’ve done something to support a local artist, crafter, author, musician, artisanal cheese maker or business. Buying local is the gift that gives twice.
We’ve compiled a few special items that have come our way from across Atlantic Canada. Hopefully this Gift Guide makes your last minute shopping a little less frazzled.
