As we approach two years in business, we continue to be big supporters of our fellow Small Business Owners. So this Saturday, November 26th, join us as we participate in Small Business Saturday. Make a big impact by choosing to shop with one of your local shop owners. Whether in person or online, your decision to spend your hard earned money with small business owners shows that the time has come to move beyond mass consumerism. Let’s get back to purchasing items and supporting businesses that are specific to an individual, artful, made with care – not in a factory.
