Tresorie - that up market store located at Linking Road - Santacruz has just the perfect stuff for you. Candles in different hues& blue red, yellow, orange, silver and gold, green and many more. Floating candles, scented candles, jelly candles, they've got it all. Prices begin as low as Rs. 40 depending on the size and design and go as high up as Rs. 600 each. And if you are feeling a bit embarrassed to present just a candle, well, why not gift a candle stand in wrought iron. Saw this lovely candle stand with a Christmas tree design for a reasonable Rs. 640. A lovely Holly leaf stand is yours for grabs for a mere 300 bucks. For those of you looking to spend in style, a lovely centrepiece five-candle holder in brass for Rs. 2,990 can brighten up anyone's day. The store also has stuff like cracked glass bowls, vases in different colours and designs, pot-pourri and more that makes great gift ideas.
Need something to keep you warm this winter? Tresorie is also offering special discounts on selected range of clothes and footwear. 25% discount on selected Rinaldi footwear will definitely keep your toes warm! Add to that 25% off on designer stuff from Bisou-Bisou. And for those of you who are planning to get a new wardrobe, do take a look at the stuff on offer by Gomzi. Purchases above 3,500 entitle you to any garment free and purchases above 2,500 to a Gomzi shirt worth Rs. 525 absolutely free. Great bargains for great prices. 
Christmas cannot be complete without the traditional Christmas tree, the crib and decorations for home. Want to make a worthwhile investment that will last you for some years to come? Well, IX to IX Art Gallery located at Hill Road, Bandra may have just the right stuff for you. These guys have Christmas trees with fibre optic cable that makes up the twigs and branches. At the base is a light source and when plugged in and switched on, the ends of the branches glow in different lights. So no need to waste money on cheap light bulbs year after year. An 8-foot tall tree will lighten your wallet by just about Rs. 9,600. And if that is too big to fit through your main door, go for the 6-foot tall one for Rs. 5,800. But trust me when I say you've got yourself a deal.
The gallery also has other decorations like a Santa Cap for Rs. 190 and stockings to put in the gifts for your kids for about Rs. 175. A little way away from the gallery is a small shop that has some great stuff. But no decorations in store for you here.
If you have a sweet tooth and want to add some sugar in someone's life this season then you've come to the right place. Fantasie (Tel: 6438955) -- the makers of fine chocolates since 1946 will definitely make this Christmas a sweet one for you. The store has a wide range of chocolates in various shapes and designs. A lovely Santa made of 500 gms of pure chocolate can be yours for just about Rs. 385. And if your kids or nephews or nieces want to ride with Santa on his sleigh then why not buy it for them? Santa's Sleigh (300 gms) for Rs. 240 and a guardian angel (140 gms) for Rs. 100 are definitely your money's worth. An assorted mix of chocolates in different shapes like bells, Santa's face can also be bought for Rs. 45 for a 60 gms pack. If you want to order in bulk, give them notice a couple of days in advance and they'll deliver the finest chocolates you've ever tasted!
