| With its Bayside locale, the East Bay boasts some of the
most scenic shopping in the state. Pair that with a winning
combination of stores, with gifts at all price points, and Holiday
shopping was never easier. Barrington Grasmere, 40 Maple Ave grasmeretheshop.com Don't be fooled by this store's tag as a custom floral design business, or the fact that the name means "growth". Your typical florist this is not. In addition to the stunning dried arrangements and topiaries, find gallery-worthy pottery done by members of the American Art Pottery Association, at a variety of prices, cherry wood serving spoons and bookmarks, and candles - all gift options that are sure to please even those without a green thumb.
