A few gifts to give from our favorite Small Businesses!

We wanted to kick off our gift guides this year by highlighting a few small businesses that carry some of our favorite things that would make great gifts! Generally small businesses need extra time to process orders and ship, especially if it's handmade, so we wanted to get this one out asap! We have a lot of other great small businesses we love linked here that we compiled earlier this year and it's worth checking out!

Here are 18 gift ideas we'd love to gift and receive this year!

1. Heirloom Print Shop - Landscape Art $11 This shop is full of so many beautiful prints that would fit into so many different homes. If you have someone on your list that is into home decor--this would be such a well received gift!
