It’s only been 6 months since Hailey Thomson opened the doors to her shop…Here Nor There…on Main St in Mahone Bay, but it’s been bringing in crowds of people ever since. Here Nor There is a cozy little lifestyle shop featuring lots of unique items..some handcrafted…some local…and lots to help reflect your personal style. This time of year there’s no shortage of items to help you create a cozy home or space.

Hailey describes “curating items” as one of her favorite things. It’s obvious when you look at the things in her shop…there is a certain “vibe” …to it all.

You HAVE to stop in and check out Here Nor There…but Hailey has come up with a list of items….all ready for you in curated gift boxes if you wish … to consider as you work through your shopping list. Shopping has never been so easy! 🙂
