Christmas has arrived early this year—at least at Ree Drummond's The Mercantile in Pawhuska, Oklahoma! Every year, Ree's hometown hotspot gets the winter wonderland special with sparkling lights, colorful ornaments, and fresh fir trees.
If you thought last year's holiday revamp couldn't be topped, the restaurant and shop's latest look will have you eating your words (and hopefully something from The Merc's bakery as well). The Merc's magical makeover starts at the storefront, where bushy, green Christmas tree garlands adorned with bulbous ornaments and bright ribbons hang overhead. Inside are even more Christmas decorations, including a whole farm's worth of Christmas trees (both big and small), each of which is decorated with whimsical ornaments you can buy straight from the source!
"Some more peeks of our little wonderland. ✨🎄❤️ Have you planned your visit yet?"
Between the adorable Christmas tree-shaped dishes, cowboy-themed ornaments, Pioneer Woman products, and twinkling trinkets, the Christmas gift options are endless. Pictures just don't do it justice—which is why you should check out this video tour of The Merc in all its holiday glory, too.
"Wow it looks like something out of a Hallmark movie," one user commented.
"I was there last year at this time for the weekend and it was one of my favorite places to visit ever," another comment reads.
So, if you're looking to cross 'visiting a Christmas town' off your bucket list, pick up a white elephant gift, or simply savor the flavors of the season, why not plan a trip to Pawhuska so you can visit The Merc? It's the perfect way to live out all your Hallmark Christmas movie fantasies at once!
