33 MILWAUKEE PUBLIC MUSEUM, 800 W. Wells St., browse through a unique collection of items gathered from around the world. The HARLEY-DAVIDSON MUSEUM, 400 W. Canal at S. Sixth St., has a gift shop for items that say "Milwaukee Iron," located just outside the museum. When you visit the MILWAUKEE COUNTY ZOO, don't overlook the zoo gift shop for a souvenir. Zoo gift cards can be used towards food, merchandise and membership. HISTORIC THIRD WARD Just south of Downtown, this vibrant former wholesale and manufacturing district is enjoying a sparkling renaissance, with shops, galleries and restaurants. Don't miss the round of special events held here. BREW CITY BEER GEAR has set up a shop at the Milwaukee Public Market, 400 N. Water St. While the market has always been a great place to eat like a cheesehead, you can now score a Wisconsinite "look" as well. BANGLES & BAGS is a jewelry, handbag and acces- sory boutique for those looking for an affordable way to accessorize. The arrangement of items in color groupings makes this a fun as well as budget-friendly stop. Also look for locations in Waukesha, 307 W. Main St.; Delafield, 611 Main St.; Cedarburg, W63 N672 Washington Ave.; Wauwatosa,1504 Underwood Ave. and Oconomowoc, 148 E. Wisconsin Ave. WALKER'S POINT/ FIFTH WARD RIVERVIEW ANTIQUE MARKET at 175 S. Water St. hosts 50 dealers from throughout Wisconsin. In 15,000 square feet of space, you will find small and large items in all price ranges. CEDARBURG Famous for its historic limestone buildings, Cedarburg provides a small town getaway, only 20 minutes north of Milwaukee. At the corner of Washington and Spring is the General Store Museum, which includes the CEDARBURG CHAMBER OF COMMERCE & VISITOR CENTER. For more information, call 262-377-5856 or (800-CDR-BURG) or visit cedarburg.org. We love the natural light and "art gallery vibe" of the BANGLES & BAGS location at W63 N6672 Washington Ave., Cedarburg. Like all B & B locations, the arrangement by colors makes matching an acces- sory to that special outfit a breeze. Cedar Creek Settlement Be sure to visit this renovated 1864 woolen mill and adjacent buildings at the corner of Washington and Bridge Sts. in Cedarburg. cedarcreeksettlement.com. CEDAR CREEK WINERY provides visitors with tours and tastings, and gift boxes make a perfect "Made in Wisconsin" gift. In addition to the wonderful atmos- phere and friendly staff, this winery has captured top honors at a number of competitions. After discovering your favorite vintage, take the short flight of stairs to go from the winery to the main part of the settlement to reach CEDAR CREEK POTTERY. The vast array of handmade pottery and fine craft will amaze you. "An elegant blend of art and function" rules here. Brides will want to take advantage of the registry to add unique items to their "wish list." On the second floor at LA DIVA, find casual yet trendy t-shirts to hand-beaded blouses for party wear. Accessories include designer handbags, silk scarves, hair ornaments and hand-crafted jewelry, and more. Find the new location for LEAP OF FAITH directly across Washington Avenue from the Cedar Creek Settlement. Look for the striped awning, and find the same relaxing, nurturing atmosphere.
