[Jim O'Bryan]

Lakewood has become a haven for unique, different fun stores and restaurants, as we count down to the Christmas Holidays we will take a quick look at shops that are not to be missed in Lakewood, Ohio, especially when looking for gifts and fun things.

The first will be Lion and Blue, at 15106 Detroit Avenue, 216.529.2328


The perfect hunting ground for those special presents!



Owners Tina and Michael are strong supporters of the community, schools and neighborhoods. They have grown this business with a love a dedication to the city and community that has to be admired. Support those that support the community and shop til you drop.

As a great side note, this weekend Annadele Alpacas will be at the Root Cafe right next door with some of the softest, warmest scarves, socks and shawls I have seen. This once a year showing should be checked out. Stop by the entire neighborhood is rocking.

If you have suggestions or favorite stores, post, or suggest and we will check them out.

Jim,
I almost missed your post! I have been shopping here for years. They have a lot of nice jewelry that is reasonably priced and the customer service is great.

Up next, a no brainer. Hixson's! Often referred to as Mr. Christmas in Cleveland Bill Hixson is a man of many love and talents, and one of them is Christmas!


Thousands of choices for Christmas ornaments and gifts!

Here is my story from last year about "Mr. Christmas," a different kind of look at the Hixson phenomena.

Everywhere you look! Make the trip soon, when I was there less than a dozen, "Lakewood city of porches" ornaments left, and "West Side Market" was flying off the shelf.



Keep sending those must shop suggestions in on the hotline, we will try to feature as many as we can.

My mom used to take me to Hixon's when I was a kid. A great place to browse, but, they do not like children very well.
