ROANOKE, VA – With Christmas just around the corner, it’s too late to rely on online shopping for last-minute gifts.
But don’t worry — Roanoke’s local shops have you covered, offering everything you need to finish your holiday shopping in style.
Melissa Mays, owner of Chocolate Paper, joined 10 News Anchor Abbie Coleman in the studio on Saturday for a holiday gift guide.
From handcrafted chocolates to Roanoke-centric gifts, she shared ideas for unique presents that are perfect for anyone on your list.
Mays also highlighted the importance of shopping small and local. Not only do local businesses offer one-of-a-kind gifts, but your purchases also support the community and help local economies thrive.
With so many locally owned stores around downtown and beyond, it’s easy to find something special for everyone — all while shopping locally and making this holiday season even brighter.
