Old-Meets-New Sachets and Scented-Geranium Candles
It's always helpful to have a few universally giftable items on hand, but items like sachets and candles can feel like phoned-in gifts... unless you're shopping at I.U. Tripp, the beloved Oak Hill antique store where old things become new again.
I love their handmade sachets (pictured above, $4), with fragrant, organic lavender packed generously into antique indigo fabric. And if you've been to the shop, you've seen gorgeous the rose-scented geraniums that fill the storefront windows, right? Their scent is distilled into candle wax and poured into reusable vintage Weck jars, making a handmade candles that you can't find anywhere else (pictured below, $18).
I.U. Tripp is located at 7892 State Route 81 in Oak Hill, New York; 518-239-8217. Follow their Facebook page for more info and give them a call if you're interested in shipping a gift.
