Happy Small Business Saturday! A few years ago I heard about this special day for the first time.. now every year I look forward to sharing some of my favorite items and small shops that I’m currently loving. Many of you know how much I adore shopping small..and this year I challenge you to order a few gifts not from the traditional “big box stores!”. I’ve created a “Small Business Saturday Shopping Guide” to help show you some of my favorite finds and to hopefully help you with your Christmas and holiday gifts!
Below I’m highlighting a few of my favorite small shops:
Candles
Hazel Candle Co. – My favorite small candle brand is located in Northern California.. I love this company so much that I created a holiday collection with Hazel including a few of their best holiday scents. We created 2 gift boxes: a 4-pack and a 2-pack. Through this holiday weekend my gift boxes are currently 20% off. They are perfectly wrapped with a craft box and satin bow and make the best gifts. Click here to shop our holiday collection.
Wreaths
The Accidental Farmgirl Co. – Over a year ago I was introduced to an incredible small shop located in Rhode Island! Jessica, the owner makes gorgeous wreaths that I love so much.. Jessica is offering 15% off her entire shop as well as free shipping today. Place your order soon as many of Jessica’s items sell out quickly!

Taelor Fisher Paintings – Taelor Fisher is a fine artist from Dallas, TX! Her work is inspired by all things natural.. especially flowers.

She recently had a baby and moved, which has allowed her more to focus on prints of her amazing work!
