Find an array of holiday gifts at Stephenville's Cheerful Heart Boutique.

By SARA VANDEN BERGE

Cheerful Heart Gifts and Boutique has kicked off the holiday shopping season and you should go!

I stopped by Cheerful Heart in Stephenville a couple of weeks ago just as they were setting up holiday displays – and everything is just beautiful.

I also got a sneak peek at some of the new inventory that will likely be making its way underneath my Christmas tree.

“We have tons of holiday candles that make great hostess gifts,” owner Melanie Vaden told Beneath the Surface News. “Our bath and spa products from FarmHouse Fresh, potpourri, Vera Bradley blankets, Consuela bags and wind chimes are also very popular this time of year.”

I love the personalized Katie Loxston makeup bags and all of the unique gifts that make perfect stocking stuffers.

Think Sugar Mama Shimmer (a glitter you sprinkle in cocktails to give them a fancy glow), Poppy Hand-Crafted Popcorn with delicious flavors like Dynamite Coffee Toffee, Chocolate Peanut Butter Dark and Chocolate Pretzel.

There are also holiday-inspired hot chocolates with flavors like white chocolate, candy cane, double truffle and toffee, a variety of spices and rubs for that special cook in your life and cute cold dips by Orange Crate Food Co. that will make holiday entertaining a cinch.
