Start with the setting. A beautiful holiday table doesn’t have to be complicated: add greenery, a few candles and a fun centerpiece. Floral Expressions has fresh flowers, custom silk arrangements, decorative accessories and gifts. Whether your style is merry and bright or calm and cozy, browse Creative Corner for a festive look. And at Scarlett’s Charm, find details down to the wine rings, so nothing is overlooked.
Now drinks—and, of course, something to nibble on. Lark Market makes it easy to build a beautiful charcuterie board with gourmet cheese, prepared foods and a selection of local favorites—and to stock the bar with wine and spirits. Add a seasonal twist and serve a batch cocktail so you’re not bartender all night. For even more organic and specialty food options, stop by Basics Cooperative.

We’ll leave the main course to you, but there’s no reason it can’t get a little local help, too. Shop the Janesville Winter Farmers Market for eggs, honey, pickles, preserves and other local finds. Or take your recipe up a notch with gourmet olive oils and vinegars from Bodacious Olive. And what’s a holiday gathering without something sweet? If you don’t have time to make five dozen cookies, pick up fudge, chocolate and popcorn from The Sugar Exchange, or make dessert the star with award-winning cheesecake and macarons from 808 Cheesecake.

When it’s time to exchange gifts, Janesville has you covered there, too. Browse a variety of plants and ornaments at K&W Greenery, or find something one-of-a-kind at Carousel Consignments. Reverie Dry Goods offers stylish gifts, while Mood is perfect for stationery and thoughtful little extras. And if your group loves a little friendly competition, pick up a new game at Dark Castle Games and make it part of the evening.

The best holiday celebrations aren’t about doing everything yourself. They’re about gathering the people you love and giving yourself permission to enjoy it too. From table to toast, Janesville has everything you need to make the season special.
