Dunn & Sonnier on Magazine Street is known for their extraordinary florals, but you must get to this Magazine Street gem during the Christmas season. There are several trees decorated through the well-appointed shop in different themes. Ornaments and ribbons fill baskets and apothecary jars throughout the shop.

Not only do flowers permeate through the air so do the scents of delicious Nouvelle candles in scents like fresh cut fir and Savannah holly.
When along Magazine Street in the Lower Garden District, you must stop at Dunn & Sonnier Antiques, Florals, and Gifts located at 2138 Magazine Street on the corner of Magazine and Jackson Streets. You will not be a bit disappointed. The shop is a visual bouquet for your senses.
I fell in love with this faux, but life-like cedar wreath and garlands. It was so realistic.

What an amazing shop. I couldn't pick a favorite tree, they were all so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow, what amazing trees! Will definitely get there soon--maybe Friday or Saturday morning. Have a great evening! Cheers! xoxo
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shop, Ron; and eye candy galore! Dear Hubby is talking about coming to NOLA for the Sugar Bowl...Ohio State alum. I've got Magazine Street on the brain!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing this! I wish I could hop on over to see it in person!
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful New Orleans is at Christmas time! My favorite is the tall stemware filled with shiny ornaments, and the tree, oh it ALL is my favorite! I am so glad you shared Ron! xxDazee
