The Little Dapitan at Ayala Malls Cloverleaf

Dapitan Arcade has been one of my go-to places whenever I need new decors or accents for the house or new baskets and crates for my shelves in Common Room. It is a shopping haven! I love shopping at Dapitan Arcade because there's a lot of options and the prices are very pocket-friendly too! Now that Christmas traffic is upon us, going to Dapitan Arcade can be a feat!

Fret not! Ayala Malls Cloverleaf is bringing Dapitan Arcade closer to you with the Little Dapitan! A bazaar featuring the best of Dapitan Arcade - from Christmas decors, home accents and decors, local handicrafts made by local artisans and more. The Little Dapitan will be open starting this October until December! What I like about it is, it's right beside Cloverleaf! You can park in the mall or park right outside it (open parking). And when you're done shopping, you can go back to the mall to shop more, watch a movie or eat at the many varieties of restaurants.
Little Dapitan at Cloverleaf is right outside the mall. Exit where Uniqlo store is.
It is in a open, warehouse-like venue. It is well-lit, the aisles are wide enough and it was easy to go around.
Can you guess what I bought? I went around three times before deciding on what to buy!
A place for you to take your photos! I love the rattan lamps!

I like that there's only about 20 stalls more or less. There's not much of repeating/redundant products which makes shopping so much easier. Better for the sellers too! I'm the type of shopper who gets overwhelmed or anxious when there's a lot of choices that I ended up not buying anything! Are you like that too?
Plastic flowers and plants for those who has black thumb like me! Haha!

There's a lot of selection for Christmas decors too! I honestly cannot decide on what to get. But here are a few that caught my eye.
This is where I got something for our house!
There's a stall that sells room spray, linen spray, hand soaps, soy candles and more that is perfect for gifting this Christmas! You can mix and match then put it a wooden box (sold separately)! I love their design labels and the scents are pretty good too!

If you are looking for crates, there's a stall selling crates in different sizes!
This stall has this gold decors that can be used for lighting or as is. They have cupcake towers and more! They also do customized works!
 There's also a wide selection of bags and wallets. They make great gifts for your officemates, staff and friends!
I also saw these super cute pots for your cactus or succulents! They are hand painted. So pretty, right?

So what did I get? Since I cannot decide on what Christmas decors I want for our home, I just bought what I really needed. I hoarded these wire baskets! I need it for my shelves in Common Room (that's 4, soon to be 5 branches) hence, the quantity! I was able to get a good price because I got a lot! I actually need to go back and buy some more!
The only Christmas decor I bought was this pair of banana-leaf like white Christmas tree! It was love at first sight so I got it na! :)

Thank you Spark It for the invite! I haven't been out on an event in so long. I also haven't written for a long while now! I enjoyed shopping and I will definitely go back for more!
