It’s hard to believe we’re on the countdown to Christmas, with just over six weeks to plan social events, family get-togethers and festive feasts, and gift shopping for loved ones. For some of us, it’s the best time of the year – and for others, not so much! The festive ones among us have most likely had presents hidden away in a cupboard since January and they are now ready to be wrapped and labelled and popped under the Christmas tree on Dec 1st. For others, last-minute late-night shopping on Christmas Eve is the norm!
If you are on the lookout for inspiration, some great ideas and some super bargains, now more than ever is the time to shop local – Mt Martha local that is. Our retail community needs our support even more than ever.
Mt Martha Village has a host of cafes and restaurants, a supermarket, post office, bottle shop and design businesses too, as well as some very special boutiques and gift stores that give Mt Martha such an individual flavour and offer locals so much to choose from.
Pomme:
Pomme is a 'trove' (a store of valuable and delightful things). Here you are sure to find something a little bit different. Their carefully curated range of handmade and limited-edition items always delights and surprises. Expect to see exquisite clothing, artwork, jewellery, glass and ceramic decorator items and accessories from around the world. Since 2003, Pomme has sought out local artists & makers from studios all over Australia, France, UK and Portugal.
