LIFESTYLE: Shop Local this holiday season with Jessica Nicolls and Karyn Frazier of Bungalow 56 Boutique

The Giving Season

By Karyn Frazier + Jessica Nicolls

The holiday gift-giving season is upon us and we wanted to make your shopping and gift giving as easy as possible this year. No need to leave the island. Did you know that we offer private shopping sessions in our shop? We also customize gift baskets of any size to cover everyone on your list.

We have curated the cutest gifts this year from all over the world and have a huge selection of candles, ornaments, jams, spices, kitchen accessories and home goods.

We put together some of our favorites for you. Email us at info@bungalow56.com to schedule your shopping experience.

We love supporting other small businesses owners in the area that give back to our community as well. Here are a few of the other shops we frequent in Coronado to buy gorgeous gifts for our friends and family:
