A cozy, meaningful holiday gift guide filled with thoughtful pieces from small shops.
There is something so special about gifting from small shops.
Whether you’re shopping for your sister, your mom, your best friend, or the girl who “already has everything,” these small shop finds are beautiful, thoughtful, and full of charm — and most of all, they support real makers + small businesses (some of which are Canadian!!)
Here are my favourite shop small gifts for her this season.
A soft, airy, oversized muslin duvet that makes any bedroom feel like a cloud. Perfect for the girl who loves slow mornings, cozy textures, and a minimal neutral vibe. This is one of those elevated basics she’ll enjoy every single day.
This little ceramic cowboy hat completely stole my heart. It’s the cutest, quirkiest piece for candle lovers — perfect on a coffee table, shelf, or bedside. A subtle boho touch for someone who loves small, unique decor moments.
A handcrafted speckled matcha bowl that feels earthy and warm — the perfect addition to her morning rituals. Pair it with a whisk or her favorite matcha powder, and you’ve created the sweetest cozy moment.
I love this so much — an illustrated calendar featuring charming markets and European-inspired storefronts. It adds instant warmth to a kitchen or office and feels like art she can use all year long.
A rich, burgundy leather journal cover that can be personalized with initials — beautiful, classic, and so functional. Perfect for the girl who loves writing, planning, or keeping all her little notes together.
The perfect cozy sweatshirt for the iced-coffee-all-year girlie. Soft, oversized and cute without feeling too trendy. It’s one of those everyday pieces she’ll throw on for school drop-off, home days, errands, or slow winter mornings with a latte.
These are so soft and sweet — pink apricot hearts on classic gold huggies. They feel vintage and whimsical at the same time. A perfect everyday earring for someone who loves romantic details.
This is the cutest laptop sleeve I’ve ever seen — puffer-style, embroidered with her name, and finished with little bows. A cozy, functional, aesthetic gift that she’ll use daily.
A clean, natural-looking tanning water that adds the perfect winter glow. It’s subtle, buildable and such a good little confidence boost in the dull months.
The perfect meaningful gift — a hand-drawn illustration of her home. This is one she will treasure forever: ideal for first homes, childhood homes, wedding gifts, or just someone who loves timeless, sentimental pieces.
