It’s holiday season in the Hamptons –  my favorite time of year! And the most beautiful place to celebrate the season is at East Hampton Gardens located at 16 Gingerbread Lane with my friend and owner Michael Giannelli. Take a tour of all the twinkling charm happening at his magical design emporium which offers a fresh take on elegant garden design and home decor curated by Michael and his partner Gregory Shano.

Michael shares, “Come see our take on a Hamptons holiday with an East Hampton Garden’s twist. Ornaments for everyone on your list, including our sweet little pig fairy! We also have retro characters from Rudolph to Yukon Cornelius and beautiful icicles that make your tree glisten. Our frosted village houses placed on a credenza or sideboard make a beautiful indoor display.. just add snow dusted trees and pillar candles.  We also design custom wreaths with ribbons of your choice. Happy Holidays!”

Location: 16 Gingerbread Lane, East Hampton. Monday-Saturday 10am-5pm; Sunday 11am-5pm

Gregory adds, “The vibe is “formally informal” as we like to call it, and you’ll find everything from William Yeoward crystal (exclusive to East Hampton Gardens in the Hamptons), to gorgeous tabletop decor and linens, along with beautiful pottery, vintage garden statuary, serving pieces, fresh flowers and more.  The overall mood is happy and bright- a little bit of Palm Beach meets East Hampton.”
