a few of my go-to shops & retailers
I typically try to pull home decor items and gifts for loved ones from a variety of places, but I love to support small businesses, especially female-founded ones! There is no question I can also be found shopping at Anthropologie, West Elm, Crate & Barrel, and Target, but these small shops are my go-to! Treat yourself or someone else!
miller lane mercantile
Denver, CO
miller lane is my go-to shop for gift ideas for anyone on my list and my favorite place to treat myself. You will find beautiful pieces throughout - home decor, kitchenware, paper goods, and so much more. Oh, and jewelry! The jewelry is so good!

brooklyn candle studio
Brooklyn, NY
Candles are such an instant mood booster for me and one of my favorite items to gift! I love their minimalist design and scents that truly elicit memories of nature, travel, and everyday moments. They offer individual candles, beautiful gift sets, and discovery sets to ensure you find a scent you love!

the babe shop
Chicago, IL
One of my absolute favorite pieces of art in my home is an illustrated sketch created from one of my favorite personal photos! These pieces make such a unique and heartfelt gift and are especially perfect for wedding or housewarming gifts! All pieces are timeless as they offer a minimal and simple design that fits in any room.
heritage & bloom
Fort Collins, CO
I discovered Heritage & Bloom when I found a beautiful pair of earrings at a local boutique in Fort Collins, CO. I have been hooked ever since! Heritage & Bloom specializes in hair accessories and jewelry and have been one of my favorite makers of fun, light, and well made products.

I have a thing for beautiful handwriting and personalized decor pieces. One of my favorite, and often overlooked, gifts is an adorable front door mat! You can order anything custom - doormats, wall hangings, mugs, seasonal decor, etc.

we drink bubbles
Carlsbad, CA
Champagne is always, always a good idea. It makes for the perfect addition to any gift basket or as a standalone item. We Drink Bubbles combines my two favorite elements of champagne - high quality bubbles with gorgeous bottle designs! Cheers!
flower shops
You didn’t expect me to pick just one, right? I absolutely love fresh flowers in my home and enjoy bringing people flowers whenever possible. There are so many beautiful independent shops that I had to list a few.
farmgirl flowers
National Delivery
If you are in need of a national flower delivery service Farmgirl Flowers is my go-to. I have used this shop many times and they always deliver beautiful burlap wrapped fresh flowers that people love!

If you are in the Fort Collins area Lace & Lilies is hands down my favorite for event flowers, your weekly bouquet, or a seasonal wreath!

If you are in the Denver metro area you need to order from Black & Blossomed! This woman knows how to create a bouquet for your kitchen table or your event!
