Dedicated: Holiday Shopping with Frosty Darling
Stop No. 2: Frosty Darling
Frosty Darling is Salt Lake’s cutest outpost for local crafties. Every little thing in this shop on 300 South is fresh, hip and original (not to mention darling, as its name implies) and to top it off, much of it’s made by Utahns like you ‘n me. Aside from staples like sofa pillows, aprons, plates and gift cards and an eye-catching selection candies you haven’t laid tastebuds on since you were ten, Frosty Darling is at once modern and retro-yielding with the most cleverly decorated interior space in town. Stepping inside these doors this holiday season will undoubtedly make your day merry and bright.
Here are some picks for holiday shopping for owner and celebrated artist Gentry Blackburn. All are available now at Frosty Darling, if you act fast:
Clockwise from top left:
The Raven: “This swanky tote with handy pockets is handmade locally by The Rookery. We’re also carrying their hilarious letterpress cards and lovely journals. They’re selling quickly!” $35
Squirrel Pin: “Does it get more adorable than this little squirrel brooch from Little Odd Forest? Felt jewelry is unexpected and fun.” $18
Sweet Tooth Aprons: “Get in the mood for cookin’ or craftin’ with these cute butcher-style aprons with retro, girly flair. They’re handmade by yours truly.” $28
Candy: “Who doesn’t want to find their favorite old-timey candy stuffed inside their stocking? We have a wide selection ranging from bubble gum cigarettes to Zots and Fruit Stripe Gum.”
Pretty Paper Notepad: “Any gal would like receiving this collection of 60 beautiful papers from One Good Bumblebee. I use them for jotting notes, making my own gift tags, creating collages or whatever strikes my paper-loving fancy.” $18

I have never commented on this site (though I am a frequent visitor) but I must heartily endorse this shop: it is really adorable and there are lots of beautiful, whimsical, charming things to delight. It is worth a visit.
