Cameron Village continues to be one of the best clusters of outdoor shops in Raleigh. This place, a few miles north of downtown off Oberlin Road between Hillsborough Street and Wade Avenue, is ideal for window-shopping. Don't miss the antiques at The Carolina Antique Mall or the home furnishings at Home Economics. Owner Debbi Cochran creates the fun jewelry in the cute and hip Cat Banjo. Great gift ideas, from original paintings and poof-ball ornaments to silky handmade scarves, lurk in every corner. Check out Seagrove Pottery for a wide variety of decorative and functional pieces for your collection. You'll find works that come from the state's mountains to the coast. (from Southern Living)
