Everyone knows about Black Friday, but do you know about Small Business Saturday?  This year, it is Saturday, November 26th (always the day following Black Friday).

We’d like to highlight some of our favorite small businesses to get you thinking about how you can support small and local businesses this year:

Pretty Sunny Studio – Minneapolis, MN

Carly makes terrazzo handmade products in happy colors and patterns.

If you’re looking for hand-picked gift baskets for any occasion, Tehani is your gal!  She has great taste and does an excellent job curating something special for you.

Courage Craft Co – Beldenville, WI

Karissa makes handcrafted baby accessories in the cutest fabrics.

Thistles & Threads – Osseo, MN

Home decor, apparel, gifts & more.  This cute shop is run by Jess, a talented business owner and designer.  They are having a Small Business Saturday event 10am – 4pm!

Ellingboe Photo – Twin Cities, MN

Caroline does beautiful work and is so fun to work with to boot!

The quality is top notch and we love the look of the black or white vessel – it always looks good in your house no matter the season.
