We’re now well into December, and the hunt is on for that perfect holiday gift. I love giving thoughtful (and often handmade) presents (regardless of the occasion!). Not much making is happening for me this year, though. Instead, I’ve been virtually shopping at various local places to find my gifts, as well as wandering the neighbourhood to find new places to check out online. Which in some ways has been a lot of fun—I’ve found a lot of small places that I didn’t know about, that are kind of cool!
Although I think it’s no one’s favourite way to shop for everything, there is something to be said for shopping from your couch still in your pj’s! Remember, there are lots of ways to support small, local business this season: shop online from a local small business, leave a review or make recommendations to people you know. They all help, both in the short and long-term.
I’d love to share some of my purchases with you, but as they have yet to be gifted, I think I’ll have to keep them to myself!
Good luck with your holiday shopping, and remember, we have a newly updated online shop
You can also contact the studio for a virtual shopping meeting, or arrange a porch trip (or a combination of both!) to help you in your quest to find that amazing gift you’ve been looking for.
However you choose to shop, find the fun in doing it, and have a great day!
