My Favorite Small Businesses to Buy Gifts From
I won’t pretend like I don’t love Amazon for the convenience, but I really really love supporting small businesses when I can, especially because most of the items are so uniquely beautiful. If you’re looking to shop small this holiday season, here’s a round up of my favorite small businesses.
Disclaimer: A lot of these small businesses have restocks that sell out quickly. Follow their socials to know when the next restock is and jump on it when they do release!
On my list: Cereal Candle and S’mores Bowl Wax Melt

I just bought the Mulled Wine and it smells just like Christmas at home
On my list: Toasted (omg smells just like a S’more!) and Pumpkin Chai (OBSESSED)

For my birthday this year I received the Gua Sha and I’m obsessed! Mount Lai is proudly Asian female-owned and rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. They take special care to give proper instruction for how to use the Gua Sha tool (along with other face tools!), so turn to them instead of Tik Tok for this!

They have the best book recommendations on Tik Tok and they’re a small local bookstore in St. Louis that ships nationwide! If you’re getting any books this year, take a look at their site first.
On my list: Earth & Rose Soap

The cutest coloring books ever! plus colorable tote bags! Her winter collection launches 11/21!
