The window has closed for online holiday shopping, but local businesses can still save your day.
Why it matters: Panic shopping is very real. Nearly 157 million people planned to shop for holiday gifts this past Saturday, per a survey by the National Retail Federation and Prosper Insights & Analytics.
Yes, but: North Texas has many stores where you can source holiday gifts, without having to worry about shipping delays.
Here are some recommendationsβ¦Β
π Yellow Rose. Kendra Scott just opened a new concept in Dallas' West Village, with Western-themed jewelry, accessories and a custom hat bar. You can also shop from the Kendra Scott x Yellowstone collection.
π― Bonton Farms: Visit the Farmer's Market at Bonton for honey butter, soap and other locally produced gifts.

π Lyla's: This downtown Plano shop has clothing, decor and other novelty gifts for kids and adults. They also have Texas-themed children's books.
