Diana and I are both passionate about shopping locally. Sure, we go to the big-box stores for some things that just can't be found elsewhere, but nothing beats finding an original item at a local merchant and/or supporting local mom-preneurs with great products to sell.
Looking for some opportunities to shop locally this holiday season? We are compiling a list here; please let us know of ones that aren't on this list.
