Holiday shopping is coming up and even started for some! With Small Business Saturday on November 26th, don't forget to shop small! all those fabulous and fun gifts to buy for loved ones, why not purchase and support small businesses! More personalized, keeping those businesses going, and unique it's a perfect way to spread Holiday Cheer!
From November 22nd- December 15th, I'm offering a huge special for portrait packages AND shirts! I also will have different specials each month of the year, only for those who have signed up for my monthly newsletter. You can sign up here!
If you want to support small entrepreneurs but not sure where to start, here's a few I follow and love!
Royal Tees Screen Printing- Located in Las Cruces, New Mexico i STILL send my designs to get printed with them! beautiful quality and easy to work with!
Bliss Body and Bath- I've ordered from her several times, after working with her at a Las Vegas event, she ships her delicious and moisturizing products right to your door. oh and did i mention, they're adorable!
Mericakes- One of my closest and wonderful friends Erika! Her cakes are always over the top beautiful, made with love, and delicious! missing her! so if you're in the Destin, Florida area check her out!
Flavor God- a little bigger of a small company, but this is where i buy all my seasonings! great little gift! (especially for those picky about food too!)
It's Breath Taking CPR- My mom and aunt own a CPR business in Dallas Texas. They sweet mama opened this business and her daughters now run it! so if you're in the area, and are in need of classes, i highly suggest these women!
Tina Mae Photography- specializing in newborn and children photograph in Zumbrota Minnesota she's someone i have to follow! my best friend just got their newborn photos there too. LOVE!
Your local photographer!- Do you know someone who got their photograph taken with someone? Call or email them to add extra prints to the loved photo package, or get another print they wanted but couldn't get on the budget for now! a fun surprise and easy to do!
Art Fairs- This is the time of year for Holiday art fairs, take a few minutes to check out what's in YOUR area to support small businesses!
We all sometimes head to big companies to quickly get shopping done, but I find the more i order from etsy, art fairs, and small businesses, the more i know i'm helping support dreams. Try to buy a few things from smaller shops this year, something more personalized, unique, and great service!
