2019 Shop Small Holiday Guide

Updated: Sep 17, 2021

I started my little business back in the fall of 2012. I had person after person telling me to “go for it” and supporting me through making a purchase or sharing about my business to a friend, a coworker or family member.

Since then, I’ve had the awesome privilege of becoming part of a thriving community of super talented artisans in the Milwaukee area.

I’m humbled to be included in their ranks at local makers markets and events. Because I understand first hand, the value of sharing a local artist's work with others, I want to share a few of my favorites with you today.

With the temperatures dropping and snow covering most of the Midwest at this point, I figured you might be ready to start a little holiday shopping, or maybe you cope with the cold weather with a little retail therapy!

So here’s a list of my favorites for you to check out:

A Happy Thought Indeed

Jewelry:

I honestly don’t wear too much of anyone else’s since I make my own… BUT I really love the style of these awesome artists:

Dynamo

Earth and All Stars

Bath and Body:

Handmade soaps, lotions, soaks, etc. are always being restocked in my home by these awesome businesses. I love that they are small batch and chemical free:

Halo Artisan Skincare

Candles:

I’m addicted to hand poured soy candles

and I don’t care who knows it!
