Shop small this holiday season

How you spend your money is another way to vote for what’s important to you. When you shop small you support individuals and 67 cents of every dollar spent at a small business stay within the local community. I’ve had the pleasure of working with a lot of these businesses below and I’m honored to know them and support them however I can. The quality of these products are insane and I hope it inspires you for some of your gift giving this holiday season.

Here is a round-up of some of my favorite small businesses.

Miller Gallery, 2019



  1. Miller Gallery - a badass, woman-owned art gallery based in Charleston, SC. They ship nationwide and here is a few of my favorite artists that they represent.

    1. Rachael Nerney - Rachael is one of my ride or dies from SCAD. I’ve had the honor of collaborating with her a lot this year. In addition to her paintings, she just released a special collection for her holiday ornaments. You can shop those this Friday on Miller Gallery’s website.

    2. Teresa Roche - Teresa Roche, this woman and I have been pen pals for the past year or so. Her work captures so much joy and I absolutely love having her pieces in my room. In addition to her paintings, she creates really cool wallpapers and fabric printing.

    3. Julia Deckman - Julia and I met this year since my move to Charleston. We hit it off via email and she has welcomed me with open arms. I had the privilege of working with her to capture her new studio and promote the opening of Julia Deckman Studio

  2. Bad Luck Burden - my girl Malorie Burden has started creating these fun, statement earrings to add flair to any outfit. Shop the link for your one of a kind pair.

  3. Small Bites Adventure Club - I’ve been working with SBAC since the beginning in 2018. This holiday season you can order six months of kits feature gardening and cooking skills, and introduce children to the farmers that grow their food. Get one or get 6! Buy one or give one to a child in need!

  4. Kate Blohm Prints - This year I launched my online print shop featuring high-quality prints or postcards to send or frame. I'm very excited to share my work in tangible form. This holiday season I am offering FREE SHIPPING on all orders over $40.

All small businesses appreciate your love and support this holiday season!

Happy Holidays my friends!
