Our Christmas open house starts today, and runs through Sunday. We will have free gifts for the earliest shoppers. Homemade goodies(yep we'll all be baking this week) and back by popular demand our hot cocoa bar, and hot spiced cider.
But I'm actually popping in to tell ya about our involvement in the second annual Oregon City Snowflake Raffle. It's a super fun city-wide shopping event offered by the Downtown Oregon City Association and Buy Local. It also starts this weekend and goes till December 12. Here's how it works. You receive entries by making purchases at participating local businesses(we are one) and then submitting the tickets given to you at the time of purchase online, via text, or in person at the raffle drawing event. You'll receive an entry for every purchase totaling at least $5 for cash prizes up to $1500. You can read all the details here. The event kicks off with a double ticket day on November 14.
I think supporting local, small businesses is super important. If you haven't shopped main street and downtown Oregon City lately, ya gotta get down there you'll be pleasantly surprised. There's some great new shops and restaurants. I ran down there recently to the furniture store I bought my new sofa from. (Homelife Furniture, I'm given them a plug, cause they're awesome). It was already dark, and they've started decorating for the season, it was so pretty and festive.
