Peruse through some antiques or grab some stocking stuffers at The Lollipop Shop. The charming stores match the equally inviting downtown main street. Spend the day walking around and you will be sure to be filled with Christmas cheer.
Any Christmas town will look more festive with a light covering of snow, and when that happens, Jonesborough just gets even more magical. When snow is pilled along the brick-covered sidewalks or covering the roofs of historic buildings, you can't help but be filled with wonder.
