Christmas Shopping The lead up to Christmas can often be busy and stressful time and finding the right gift or that perfect part dress can when you don’t have much time on your hands and you still haven’t organized the party food or something special for your gluten-intolerant cousin who’s coming to stay. Well a trip to Kurri Kurri could be the answer to all your Christmas prayers. The pretty high street with its iconic Kookaburra statue offers plenty of parking and an array of shops for all of your needs. For all things antique and collectable drop into Steptoes on Lang Street. You will be amazed at the huge display of antique furniture and giftware – give yourself plenty of time as there is so much to see and many great bargains to be had.
If you’re gift shopping dip into Christine’s Shabby Shack on Barton Street. It is a veritable Aladdin’s cave of beautiful giftware and furniture. The welcome is as bright and warm as the décor and with a smiling helpful hand you are sure to find just what you want. For perfect party wear pop in to Abbyz Designz on Lang Street – whether you want casual or formal she has it all in sizes 6-26 – not to mention a huge range of shoes and accessories to ensure you will be the belle of the ball. After all that shopping no trip to Kurri Kurri is complete without a visit to Paxton Pantry café for something deliciously indulgent – great coffee (or tea), a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere and of course a wondorous display of gorgeous homemade cakes and savouries. Rest for a while and recharge your soul whilst deciding what gluten free goodies you can bring home for your family.
