Downtown Cyber Week Staff Picks

Downtown Cyber Week is here! We’ve rounded up some awesome online specials and sales from your favorite Downtown Lynchburg retailers. Plus, shopping Downtown Cyber Week allows you to:

  • Start your holiday shopping early - get it done and forget it

  • Avoid having to go out in public - you don’t even have to wear pants

  • Support locally owned businesses - Jeff Bezos already has enough money

So, to inspire your shopping spree, the staff at Downtown Lynchburg Association has selected some of their favorite picks at each store. (No, we don’t expect you to buy us stuff…but we might be conveniently tagging our families and friends.)


Spearman Artisanry

free shipping on all orders using code Cyber Week

Ashley: Handcrafted African Woven Bag - This bag is perfect for filling with market-fresh produce (or maybe a toddler’s favorite toys). Did we mention that it is a fair-trade product handwoven out of Veta Vera Grass in Ghana, West Africa?

Susan: Sterling Silver Wire Crocheted Circle Earrings - Talk about a wardrobe staple. These sterling silver earrings go with practically anything while the intricate handwoven process makes them stand in a league of their own.

Deidre: Mini Macrame Plant Hanger with Faux Plant - While Deidre DOES have the ability to keep a plant alive (unlike some of us who will remain nameless), it never hurts to spruce up a small space with something that doesn’t need light or water.

James: Men's Peruvian Camp Shirt - Menswear? Heck, yeah! James can wear this Peruvian camp shirt while hiking with friends or enjoying a delicious wheat beer.


Lexie & Lee

20% off entire website and free shipping over $75

Ashley: Stirrup Earrings - A couple of things that we’ve learned about Ashley over the years: she’s addicted to earrings and they need to stand out against her dark hair. These stirrup earrings, about the size of a quarter, do just that.

Susan: Essential V Neck - It’s no secret that Susan is a Michigander, so cold weather and layering is her JAM! Winter is coming and it’s time for layering. That’s why this thermal v-neck is a must to keep warm while squeezing that last bit of fall in Downtown Lynchburg.

Deidre: Moxie Aztec Cardigan - Deidre is living that cozy life! Whether she’s cuddled up by a backyard bonfire or checking in on the Takeout Patios, she’ll be nice and warm in this cardigan. Plus the black & tan Aztec design goes well with practically any outfit.

James: Lexie & Lee Gift Card - James is one smart cookie. Rather than guess what his fiancé’s size is, he’s just going to get her a gift card instead. That is, if he doesn’t spend it on some of the vintage homeware that the Lexie & Lee staff carefully curate first.


Gilded & live trendy or die

Saturday & Sunday Only: Online Holiday Open House - 15% off with code OPENHOUSE

Ashley: Pop Culture Stickers - Gimme all the stickers. Call it nostalgia for a childhood collection, but why wouldn’t you want to put the late, great RBG on your computer, Ashley’s leadership role model, Leslie Knope on your water bottle, and the goddess herself, Lizzo on your cell phone case?

Susan: “Home Is Where Your Dog Is” Pillow - With three furry friends in her household, this motto holds true for Susan. Sure, this pillow might get covered in dog hair, but it’s totally worth it for puppy cuddles on the couch.

Deidre: Third West Brand Perfume - This earthy blend of botanicals is not only easy-to-wear, but is hand-crafted here in the U.S. Gilded carries three gender-neutral blends including Old Bourbon and Gypsy Soul, but Deidre prefers the rich tone of Smoked Sandlewood.

James: Terra Candle Co. Island Tobacco - We are fairly certain that James works better with a little bit of candlelight (or so he claims). Regardless, we all agree that the Island Tobacco scent is masculine but the notes of teakwood and sandlewood make us all want to get to a beach.


oshun organics

25% off storewide on orders over $25

Ashley: Aja Loc & Curl Cream Gel - For those days where a blowdryer or straightening iron are just not in the cards, Ashley grabs her Aja Loc & Curl Cream. Not only does it define curls but it tames fly-aways, so she can focus on getting stuff done while still looking good.

Susan: Whipped Body Butter - One of many Oshun Organics products stocked in the Brown household, Body Butter is perfect for dry, chapped skin…you know, the kind you get after washing your hands often. Best of all, the Unicorn Essence scent takes her back to a time of My Little Ponies & Lisa Frank.

Deidre: New Moon Eye Gel-Cream - We should have known that this mystical spirit would gravitate to anything inspired by the moon. But we get it, Deidre spends plenty of late nights crafting jewelry and candles, and this eye gel is there to liven up tired eyes.

James: Warrior Conditioning Beard Butter - James is a dude. A dude with a beard. To keep that beard soft and conditioned, James chooses beard butter. With five scents to choose from (unscented is a scent, right?), you can choose a fragrance that is earthy and bright, sweet, soft and slightly floral, spicy, or none of the above.


Beeswax candle co.

20% OFF COLONNADE CANDLEs as listed on the “sales” section

Ashley: Square Beeswax Pillars - Classic square pillars are a MUST from Beeswax Candle Company’s signature line. Made with wax sourced from American beekeepers, these beauties add bold flair to your home.

Susan: Beeswax Gold-edge Feathered Twist - The longer you burn these feathered twists, the more the light flickers around the remaining wax fingers. The gold ridges add a sense of drama perfect for a romantic date night at home.

Deidre: Hand-Rolled Beeswax Tapers - Texture? Yes, please. Sheets of honeycomb wax are delicately rolled to create these tapers that can burn up to 8 hours!

James: 12 Hour Wander Collection Tins - Remember when we said that James loves candles? Well, with these travel tins, he can take his candles where ever he goes. We recommend getting all three for a full set.


Downtown Lynchburg

20% OFF cold-weather gear (hats, Sweatshirts, long-sleeve tees) with code fall2020

Ashley: Classic Downtown Lynchburg T-Shirt - There’s nothing like a good tee for those mornings where choices are hard, especially if you haven’t had your first cup of coffee yet. If you find that you have those types of mornings a lot, go ahead and order one in each color.

Susan: Downtown Lynchburg Cap - With hair that seems to change colors with the seasons, it’s surprising to find out that her go-to gear (aside from sneakers) is a Downtown Lynchburg cap to wear while running the trails.

Deidre: Crew Neck Sweatshirt - The bigger, the better. Deidre loves to cozy up in a sweatshirt that’s a few sizes too big. Paired with leggings and a warm mug of tea, she’s all set to tackle the day.

James: Special Edition T-Shirt - James did an absolutely fantastic job designing the logo for our telethon swag, so it’s no wonder that he’s repping downtown in this ringer tee all the time. Missed out? Keep an eye out for more limited-edition donor merch coming soon!
