30 places to check out this Small Business Saturday
This time of year I always notice the lists: 25 gifts on Amazon your family will love, Top 10 things to buy on Amazon that look luxurious but are super cheap…you’ve seen them too.
My coworker and I were musing how nice it would be if there were a list of local places to shop, especially since she is new to the area — so for her (and maybe you?) here are 30 places (read: people) that have amazing products you can buy instead.
If you were to ask my husband he’d say I am a fiend for jewelry, so…
- Metamorphosis Metals, check out her steel & gold pieces
- Audrey Lane, I adore her driftwood pendant necklace
- Marie Louise High, these sea kelp earrings are everything
- HTY Jewelry, specifically love her rococo and deco pieces
- Cockamamie Jewelry, this hairpin with vintage pieces
- Tinty Craft, her beadwork collar necklaces
- Calamity Pass Trading Co, this bear claw necklace
- Hot House Posey, her enamel earrings
