Gift Ideas (for yourself, too!)
While not local to Knoxville specifically, Emily’s custom Broadway sheet music art is available online from anywhere! These are so unique…what a beautiful way to commemorate your favorite show or role or song. #ad
EGT sheet music art
Make your photos come to LIFE with all sorts of printed products. My favorites are the ornaments and wood blocks, but I can’t wait to try the wall hangings and framed pieces, too. They run super sales through their social media, too.
PhotoBarn
Fully mobile plant shop! It makes me smile each time I spy the trolley out and about. I’ve purchased several succulents from them and can’t wait to grow my collection.

Such a cool aesthetic—with welcoming and peace/love vibes. My favorite is their restorative yoga series, and their merch/yoga props are great, too.
The Glowing Body Yoga & Healing Arts
I’ve seen Dr. Ryan Dulling for YEARS and love being able to go back to him (even though it means something is wrong with my body!). He is so caring, empathetic, and knowledgeable, and has built an incredible practice and team. They offer dry needling...
