Shopping small businesses for holiday gifts for your loved ones could not be more important. When you shop small, you not only get gifts that not everyone else has, but you’re making a real impact in someone else’s life.

You’re putting gifts under your Christmas tree (and that of the small biz owner!)

You’re helping with their mortgage.

& a real person does a happy dance.

So to help you find better holiday gifts & shop small, we asked other makers to send us their best gifts and we’ve put them all together in a series of short gift guides. 

Merry Christmas!

To start with today, here’s our Shop Small Gift Guide for Artists & Creative Gifts…

👉We will definitely be shopping  these GORGEOUS blankets  that are literal works of art for our artist friends & fam. These blankets make a great gift for those in your life who appreciate the finer things but also have a more bold aesthetic.

👉 This paint brush rest  is super aesthetic & you can even have it personalized!

👉 We also LOVE  this artist gift set  that includes a guided inspiration journal, a collage pack, and the quirkiest paint palette earrings!

👉 This notebook is great for creatives  who need to jot down their ideas or plans or reflections (it has perforated pages in case you need to pull out your page of ideas and pop it on your mood board, mirror, or files).

👉Has your favorite artist ever tried watercolor markers? Welcome to every creative person’s new obsession.  Start with this book:

👉Is your favorite artist an aspiring business owner, too?

 Our online course, Dream, Create, Sell  teaches makers & handmade businesses how to grow their shops on Etsy. There really isn’t a better way to support their dreams than to invest in their business with a digital course that teaches them literally everything they need to know about selling their art online.
