Find great small businesses to support this Shop Small Saturday.
As a small business owner, I make a point of supporting other small shops—both with my purchases and with my influence. Small businesses are the backbone of our neighborhoods and the broader economy, and shopping small makes a direct difference to families and communities.
I’ll be sharing my top picks throughout the day on Instagram Stories, so follow along to see more of my favorites.
Every page view, click, and purchase on this blog helps support my family—paying for everyday needs, activities for my children, and special family moments. When you engage with this community, you’re supporting a real family-owned business. Thank you for your support.
My Favorite Small Shops to Support
My Printables Shop – Last year I launched a collection of printable planners and holiday printables. The response has been wonderful and I’m grateful for your support. If you’re planning ahead for the holidays, my digital Holiday Planner and the 10 Christmas Printables make organizing and gifting simple.

Emily Ley (Simplified Planners) – I’ve relied on Simplified Planners for years. They’re beautifully designed and practical for day-to-day life. I wrote a full review discussing how they help me stay organized; many of her products are often discounted during holiday sales.
Beddy’s – Zippered bedding has been a game-changer for our girls’ loft beds. It makes the bed easy to make and keeps linens neat. They’re offering a Shop Small promotion that’s worth checking out.
Amanda Owens Art – Amanda is a talented watercolor artist who specializes in custom home portraits and a charming historic doors series. Her artwork makes meaningful gifts and unique keepsakes—perfect for a custom commission this season.
Lindsay Letters – Lindsey creates beautiful abstract and typographic prints that refresh any space. I’ve collected several of her pieces and recommend browsing her sale items for seasonal art and giftable prints.
Cultivate What Matters (Power Sheets & Write the Word Journals) – Power Sheets helped me set and achieve meaningful goals; they’re an excellent tool for planning intentional habits. The Write the Word journals are simple, devotional-friendly tools I use regularly.
Antique Candle Co. – Hand-poured candles with thoughtful scents from an Indiana small business. I met the founder and appreciate the care and mission behind her brand. These candles make a lovely hostess or holiday gift.
Ruggable – Washable rugs are practical for homes with kids and a high-traffic kitchen. They’re durable, easy to clean, and a smart investment for everyday life.
Mama Needs Box – A subscription box designed to give busy moms a little self-care each month. Each box follows a theme and includes curated items to encourage rest and joy. I loved being a guest on the related podcast and support this thoughtful small business.
Laurel Browning Art – Laurel’s southern-inspired paintings and seasonal pieces bring warmth and local charm to any home. She sells through local shops and occasionally lists pieces in her online shop—follow her to see new work.
Sweet Pineapple – If you live near Huntsville, Alabama, this boutique is a favorite local gift shop with unique finds and artful home goods.
Matilda Jane – Charming children’s clothing that keeps little ones feeling playful and special. I appreciate supporting local moms who resell and share these whimsical pieces.
Happy shopping—and thank you for choosing to shop small. When you buy from independent makers and local shops, you help sustain families and creative businesses in your community.
