This year I thought Id do a slightly different Christmas Gift Guide. You may or may not know, but I recently launched my own shop (you can find the tab at the top of this page!). With that I created a tweet in order to unite me with fellow small businesses! Im not sure what qualifies as “viral”, but this certainly was to me.
ARTISTS!! I want to buy from small businesses for Christmas this year, plus I want to make a blog post with as many small businesses as possible!!

They are all so creative! And so are you because you’re the one who created the list ;3
I think it’s a wonderful idea to give someone something like this and also creating something by yourself would be even better ❤️
