The last four days were amazing! Completely relaxing with the perfect balance of downtime and social hour. I had a great time participating in Small Business Saturday which promotes shopping in small, independent stores in your own community. I’m a huge fan of this and each year choose to kick off my holiday gift shopping this way. It’s also the perfect excuse to visit all my favorite local boutiques. I had so much fun picking out these special items for friends I know will appreciate them. The slipper socks are Free People and super yummy, cozy with micro fleece lining. Perfect for lounging in front of the fire. The candle and soap, well both smell amazing, and are definitely small luxuries. The soap is by Tokyo Milk, it’s triple milled with shea butter and lasts a very long time. The packaging  is to die for, one of my all time beauty faves! And the wine stopper was handmade by Fair Trade Artisans in India using age-old techniques. Did I mention all these gifts were under $25…Great values for unique items ♥
