Presents from Port Orange: Finding Holiday Gifts That “Wow”

Scrambling to find the perfect gift? For that one-of-a-kind find, look no further than the Port Orange destinations right around the corner.

Take a look below as we share some of our favorite gift and shopping solutions, all from right here at home.

Just Us Girls

Shopping doesn’t just have to be a task you check off your list—we think it can be a treat in itself!

For a social shopping event that pairs great finds with a fun, community experience, why not try Just Us Girls? The monthly event—which, this month, takes place December 7^th at 6:30—invites women to come out to the Port Orange VFW, where they can enjoy delicious treats and shop for items from women in business. It’s a great way to make some new friends and come home with a gift that’s truly one-of-a-kind.

Local treats

The holidays are all about indulging in sweet, delicious treats—which, incidentally, happen to be some of our favorite gifts, too! Give a meaningful, flavorful gift by sharing cookies, cakes, or other sweets from one of Port Orange’s excellent bakeries that you can find on PortOrangeConnection.com!  No matter where you choose, you’ll be greeted with friendly service and goodies worth writing home about.

Beachy ornaments

Do you prefer to take the DIY approach when it comes to gift-giving? Port Orange has you covered there, too… just head to the beach! Fill up a clear ornament with sand, and small shells or other shoreline finds (just be sure not to pick up any critters along the way!). You can then use paint to write a special message or picture on the ornament’s exterior. Let it dry, and send to someone you love!

Family postcard

Looking for a fun way to spruce up your traditional holiday card? Make it a postcard and embrace the vacation vibes of your year-round home! Vacation phrases like “wish you were here” take on an all-new meaning during the holidays, and your warm wishes are sure to brighten up the recipient’s day.

Gift-giving is easy (and fun!) when you take the local route and rediscover all the great opportunities hiding just under your nose. We hope that today’s blog helps you enjoy your holidays with the ones you love!
