Minted Vintage Holiday Gift Guide 2020
It's been a challenging year, no doubt. If you’re anything like me, then you’re ready to move on from it! Thankfully, regardless of what is going on around us we can still celebrate each other through thoughtful gift giving. This holiday season gives us a great reason to think of ways to brighten someone’s day! I can’t think of a better opportunity to share a few gift ideas from my favorite small shops than right now!
I hope that these gift bundle ideas help you find something special for those you love. Each one of these talented, small business owners offer a unique gift. When you buy from one of them you are making an impact - not only on the small shop but within their community as well. Give your friends and loved ones something they will cherish all while supporting small business, trust me, you’ll be glad you did!
Happy shopping and Happiest of Holidays to You!
