It’s no secret that businesses have struggled in 2020 due to the pandemic. This is why it’s more important than ever to shop small this holiday season. 

Etsy is just one site filled with small businesses, and there are so many amazing gift options on there! This small shop gift guide has just a few of my favorite ones that I’ve seen on Etsy.

​Custom Handmade Resin Snake Earrings

Residual Resin was one of the shops that participated in our virtual holiday boutique. She makes beautiful resin pieces, and these snake earrings are her best sellers! She can customize them with different colors, glitter, and even pressed flowers! These would make a great gift for any stylish jewelry lover in your life.

This felt playset by Last Yesterday, also a participant in our virtual craft fair, is so cute! It’s the perfect stocking stuffer for your younger kids this year. It can be put together and taken apart over and over again for endless fun, and it’s felt, so it’s super soft. My niece has this set, and she loves to sleep with her little gingerbread girl!

These clay earrings from Katelyn Reese Handmade are beautiful and, when the light hits them just right, they really do have that stained glass look! These are available in three different varieties: regular, mini, and a floral shape. Another amazing gift for anyone in your life who has that “it-girl” style.

​Snickerdoodle Delight Mug Candle

I feel like candles are one of those gifts that are super versatile and everyone likes getting. And these mug candles from Rustic Candle Company are SO cute! My favorite scent is the Snickerdoodle Delight, but they have a few other seasonal scents as well that make them perfect holiday gifts. Grab a few and give them to your teachers, bosses, friends, family… seriously anyone on your list will love these.

Cat moms, dog dads, and shared custody reptile parents alike will love the custom ornaments from Rizza Drawings. They are hand painted in the likeness of their fur baby, sure to get a good spot on the Christmas tree every year after this. There’s no better gift than something thoughtful that will get used regularly.

​Holly Holiday Christmas Mask

It’s pretty clear that masks aren’t going anywhere for a while, so why not make them an ACTUAL part of our wardrobes and not just an afterthought we grab while we walk out the door? These cute holly masks by Veggie Girl Design make the merriest statement and include a pocket for a filter. Use these as a fashionable, yet practical, stocking stuffer. Want the fun to last long after Christmas? They also have several other patterns available.

These sweet photo note cards by Tananarive Photo come with envelopes for each one. Gift them as a set to one animal lover in your life, or use them to write out your own holiday message! Either way, they are sure to make the recipient smile and will probably be on display even after the holidays have ended.

​Adventures with Grandparents Poster

The gift that keeps on giving, this poster can be found in our very own 3 Winks Design Shop in poster or booklet form. It’s a digital download, so you can download it instantly and have it printed that same day. This is a great gift for grandparents to give their grandchildren, but also vice versa! Color it in as activities are completed together and memories are made.

Golden Woods Printed Photograph

Created By Arianna is  a shop that sells beautiful photo prints, perfect additions for any gallery wall. They have a lot of high quality images, but I especially love this Golden Woods photo. I think it would fit in perfectly with all the other art and photos I have up by my desk. Snag one of your own and gift it to anyone in your life who appreciates beautiful scenery and/or interior design.

Snowflakes & Champagne Nail Set

If you have a friend, family member, or significant other who used to get their nails done regularly pre-pandemic, you will want to grab this one. These beautiful press on nail sets by Lady Lacquer are the perfect solution to their nail salon woes. I especially love this Snowflake & Champaign set because they are festive and will work through New Years. They also have several other styles available if you want to gift more than one set!
