Some of my favorite small businesses to support!
As a small business owner myself, I am always so incredibly grateful whenever someone invests in something from my shop.
It’s true – the people behind the screens and doors of small businesses literally do a little happy dance each time a sale is made.
We are passionate about our products, and love what we do; which wouldn’t be possible without you! This year more than ever, I think we see just how important it is to support small businesses within our communities.
If you are in a position to purchase something from a local shop, I encourage you to! Your support can and does so much for your community.
Below is a short list of some of my favorite small businesses that you can help support on this Small Business Saturday (or any time!). This hardly scratches the surface, there are thousands and thousands of amazing small shops across the country that we can and should be supporting. However, I hope that you might find a new favorite here!
