Church Street's Flatirons offers Mermen and more

The clock is ticking toward Christmas. But don’t despair if you haven’t finished your shopping: Fab magazine’s Drew Rowsome is here to help.

Rowsome went to campy gaybourhood shop Flatirons in Toronto to get some gift ideas from “Sandra Claus.” Among her suggestions: Mermen, Michelle DuBarrydolls and Lampe Bergers (check them out in the video).

Take a look at our video below. It may not be what you are looking for, but it might put you in the shopping mood.
