Last weekend we wanted to get out and about and not hit the mall so we ended up spending an afternoon in Rangiora on Friday and went to lunch at Oxford on Sunday ( at Jo Seagers of course)They both have great little gift shops if you like finding something a little bit cute and vintage, in Rangiora I went into Cream & Clover I found some more of the large magnetic scrabble letter tiles, they were out of the letters I wanted so the lovely assistant put me down in the order book, great service! I already have LOVE on the fridge and want to add LILY to it and will probably add a few more words as time goes on
Emmas at Oxford is the cutest little bookshop/giftshop and I always come away with something from there this time it was the glass jar (and next time the cute little necklace)
I would definately suggest, if you want to get out of the city and are stuck for ideas of what to do and where to go (which is quite common for us here in CHCH at the moment) head out to Rangiora or Oxford
