If you're anything like me, holiday shopping for you starts early and ends late. I always get preoccupied in between. This year, I had a little break during Thanksgiving and traveled to Central America for a couple of weeks! We are so close to the holidays so I thought I'd share some of my favorite local places to shop! Shopping locally matters and supporting small businesses has a great impact on the economy, environment and the community. I hope you are able to find something amazing from this list!
