Best Gift Spots

Start with The Bead Shop (4612 Magazine). Pick up a fleur-de-lis ring for $22. Rooms are filled with beads, silver charms (many specific to New Orleans), and gold-dipped leaves. Next door is Jezebel’s (4610 Magazine). Vintage costume jewelry and other one-of-a-kind gifts (such as hand-painted window shades) await here. For the best of the best in jewelry, visit Mignon Faget (3801 Magazine), a Louisiana artist and designer known for her stunning baubles.
