Need a gift? How about regional handmade pottery, antique English silver, yummy smelling lotions or candles? Babcock’s has something to fit most gift-giving needs.
“We love what we’re doing here,” says Adrienne Oeding, manager of the East Memphis store owned by Buzzy Hussey.
For the bride-to-be, Babcock’s is china heaven. And don’t worry if you are a little overwhelmed by the sheer number of patterns in the china room; consultants are on staff to help.
