A few months ago I accidentally discovered the neatest little shop in Downtown Bentonville. My kids and I wandered around Bentonville Mercantile for half and hour and left with the coolest treasures. With the holidays coming up, it’s the perfect time to head downtown and check out this unique, local business.
- The first reason to visit Bentonville Mercantile is to support local makers. The store sells items made by people all across Northwest Arkansas. These makers don’t have to wait until the next craft show to sell their items because they can place them in the shop year-round.
- You never know what you might find in the shop. New items are added all the time. Some items are even handcrafted, one-of-a-kind items so it’s the perfect place to shop if you’re looking for a unique gift or just something fun for yourself. You can find everything from t-shirts to snack items like gourmet popcorn, coffee, and beef jerky all made right here in Northwest Arkansas.
- Some items can even be personalized. They currently have some Christmas ornaments made by a local mom who can specialize one to be the perfect fit for a gift, or for your family.
- The location is super fun! You’ll find the Bentonville Mercantile just one block off of the square. You can swing by the shop after dining at one of the unique downtown restaurants, or when you finish up ice skating at Lawrence Plaza.
- Shopping at Bentonville Mercantile helps to support people who truly care about Northwest Arkansas. The owners have created a space for the wonderful makers in our area to proudly display and sell their creations. How exciting is it to be able to support our local community while scoring some of the most creative and unique items at the same time?
Head on over to the Bentonville Mercantile soon, and be sure to let us all know what cool stuff you find!
