Over the holidays folks spend a LOT of money on beautiful things and, of course, a whole lot of junk. Plastic crap that goes straight to the landfill, products that are made poorly or using underpaid factory workers, or just kitchy stuff that quickly finds a home in the back of a closet somewhere.
I’m a big fan of promoting folks who are working hard to make their businesses grow. So I put together a little list of special offers from some of my favorite folks! Not only will you feel good supporting passionate, hard-working business owners, but you’ll end up with gorgeous, original pieces of art, special in-person experiences, or transformative services that change your life.
While this list certainly doesn’t include everyone I’ve worked with (for example, it’s more complicated to gift an entire home, a branded video, or a therapy session), the list below highlights some gift ideas from talented and thoughtful folks who create beautiful things and offer special services.
