Visit The Waxwing for handmade Wisco pride
A couple of my dear friends are moving away this week — to California, to be exact. I knew I had to leave them with something from The Good Land, so I went to The Waxwing to see what I could find. The shop at the corner of North and Oakland has so many perfect Wisconsin- and Milwaukee-themed gifts of all shapes, sizes, and price points. Here's just a handful of the goodies I spied.
Colorful coasters — make your own set!
Beer bottle candles — just find one that's a Wisconsin beer.
A PBR-inspired pillow (and there are many other pillow designs).
Small clay dishes for rings and things.
Stacks and stacks of Wisconsin and Milwaukee art prints.
Tiny, adorable, framed water color paintings.
There are also post cards and stickers, paintings on rustic wood, more made-in-Milwaukee candles, tea towels with catchy phrases, t-shirts, necklaces with tiny brass charms stamped with "MKE," and so much more. Truly, if you're shopping for something to represent our home town or state, The Waxwing is chockfull of treasures!
