What are your favorite small businesses to support during the upcoming gift giving season? I'd love to shop at some of these places rather than spending it all at Amazon.

I love shopping on Etsy...
This shop makes leather bands for apple watch. I have super tiny wrists so LOVE that she makes them in XS and S sizes. I have 2 (beige and brown) and want a black one.

I really like Maple Landmark. They make such high-quality wood items. Both our kids have name trains from there and the quality is just outstanding! They are family owned and operated.

If you're into abstract art...I LOVE this UK-based artist. I actually follow her on Instagram too and she's really prolific. I love her style and watching her grow her business!

For runners (or walkers or just exercise enthusiasts in general!) there is a great local shop in my city that ships nationwide. Sure, you can get these exact brands online, but it's awesome to support a small business that was actually started by a runner who wanted to enrich his community! This business also supports races and community-building efforts all throughout the year which is so cool!

This is a local jeweler in my city (and her husband owns the MOST amazing African restaurant!) - I really like her work! She ships nationwide!
