ReplyDeleteI'll be shopping small at the farmers market and local bookshop this year for Christmas. Also, a few items from etsy.
ReplyDeleteI have such a hard time shopping small! I mean, we don't have a ton of money, but I do love getting gifts. I guess one thing I'm doing this year is making some gifts for our four daughters from kits that I bought from independent designers (doll kit from Alicia Paulson and knitting kit from Barrett Wool Co.).
ReplyDeleteDefinitely going to check these shops out for Christmas and the other small shops I follow on Instagram!
ReplyDeleteI love shopping small but get overwhelmed by all of the options on Etsy. Thank you for making this list! It helps me narrow down my search.
ReplyDeleteI like to shop small by using etsy, local artist or friends, and by making things myself. The bundles are all amazing.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to see so many great makers on this list, even though my shop is on hiatus! I have bought from several (Fig and Thimble, Delphina Rose, Pycnocline, Cabrini Creations come to mind) and have been so impressed.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Salem Studio is working on rolling-pin style cookie cutters for Christmastime that look so amazing! Perfect for shortbread or strong gingerbread or springerle. I am really, really excited about them!
