The Six Shops Of Xmas - Shop Number Three: Relics

by MBIP


Relics is one of Peoria’s most popular shops for gifts, cards and plants. This is one of Peoria’s most unique shops and there’s something for everyone in here.

You can win a forty dollar gift certificate if you are the first one to walk into the store on this Black Friday and say the two magical words that are listed below.

Keep on scrolling and those words will be magically revealed to you!

Here we are at Relics gift shop on Sheridan Road.

They are open, so let’s go in and take a look around in here.

As you can see, they are all stocked up for this holiday season!

Let’s start off in this section over here…

Relics has the most fun and unique Peoria-styled gifts including hats, t-shirts, stickers and the “Punks in Peoria” book by Jonathan Wright and Dawson Barrett.

I love this collage art by local artist, Rachel Newell.

Here’s Holly & Ivy candles and tiny trees.

Relics has a fabulous selection of plants for sale in the front of the store.

Peoria-made Just Bee products have a beautiful display over here.

Relics is loaded with such cool and unique items!

Owner Deb told me that this is the best toffee in the universe! It’s made right here in Peoria by Erin Elizabeth and it’s a sweet treat!

Relics is a must stop on this Black Friday holiday shopping day!
