XMAS SHOPPING

We recently were introduced to a real treasure trove of most unusual handcrafted items which offers a unique collection of ideas for Christmas presents.
Just off La Rambla, (see their ad. on page 14 for a map) Artefactos is run by Chris and his wife who spent some time in Colombia, from which all the shop items are imported, before moving here.
There are hundreds of unique artisan products to choose from that range from one to a thousand (a serious piece of furniture) Euros with plenty of choice within that range.
Chris is very enthusiastic about the pieces and can tell you where, how and even by whom they are made.
The list of items is far to long too list here- you’ve got to get down there and take a look for yourself.

Something nautical? Where better than Nautiparts in Puerto Portals? They’re stocking gift ideas not only for the kids but for mums & dads too. From caps to motorised scooters- a great range to choose from. Their snow gear’s just arrived too!

Bad hair days instantly cured? Perhaps a Miracles hair & beauty salon gift vouchers the answer? Go on, pamper someone. Their salon is directly in front of Marivent Palace.

Ever thought of how to clear your head after the Christmas blow out? Not much! How about a trip over the island and see it as Santa does with Sloane Helicopters? Call them on 971 794 132
