Do you want to know how to save money this Christmas, purchase unique gifts and get it all done in a matter of hours?
I have collated a list of some of the best small businesses in Rockhampton and Yeppoon to buy gorgeous presents for the fam.
The best part is you’re supporting local families, helping the environment and finding little gems you couldn’t fine anywhere else.
If you haven’t already been drooling over their peonies and dried florals, then their selection of beauty products and hampers will.
After seeing their cocktail glasses, rocky road and magnesium bath salts in one collection, I was ready to send the kids to the grandparents for the night and enjoy some time to myself.
From beach umbrellas to a glittery fairy hamper, there is something for every member of the family here…hint, hint husband. 😉
2. Hannah Jones Yeppoon
Hours can be spent getting lost in other worlds in this alluring book shop located at Yeppoon.
It houses an array of carefully selected children’s books, bespoke planners to kick 2023 off feeling organised and so many incredible reads for all ages.
Do yourself a favour, drop the kids off anywhere, pick up a coffee and take in this beautiful store.
3. Something Different
This stunning store is filled with as much colour and vibrancy as the welcome you’ll receive from its owner Kate.
Filled to the brim with Australian artworks, jewellery and all the dinnerware you’ll need to style a killer Christmas lunch.
Every year you can be guaranteed there’ll be a ‘Something Different’ gift wrapped pressie under our tree.
4. Reid & Rose
If you’re entertaining over Christmas and want to add a pop of colour to your table, then visit one of three Reid and Rose stores in Rockhampton.
You’ll be able to buy your kids rashies and lairy sunnies for summer, a new outfit for Christmas Day, products that are kind to the planet and so much more.
The only danger is you might walk in buying for someone else but you’ll certainly walk out with something for yourself.
5. By The Bay The Label
These Australian designed picnic rugs are not only produced by this gorgeous central Queensland brand but are made from 100% recycled cotton.
Perfect for summer picnics at the beach or to add some flair to your lounge or bedroom.
I already own one of these beauties and would love another!
6. The Drifter & The Gypsy Collective
This equisite store, located in Wandal, is a one-stop shop for all environmentally friendly and sustainably sourced Australian products.
From their collection of handmade soy candles, woven handbags, throws and cushions, it covers everything from homewares to beauty products.
The warm and earthy tones will welcome you in as you admire artwork by local artists to style your home.
7. With Love Bambino
Know someone who is expecting a baby soon or looking for adorable outfits for your kids this Christmas?
With Love Bambino, located on William Street, Rockhampton, is run by the gorgeous Grace who as a mum herself, knows exactly what parents are looking for.
From beautiful lightweight cot sheets, to unique toys and stylish children’s and baby clothing – there are gifts here for little ones of all ages.
8. Alice Rye Photography

Presented as a beautiful A5 card, it can be popped under the Christmas tree as the gift that keeps on giving for years to come.
