ahoy there mateys!
Wowie zowie December is just speeding by, isnโt it?
Amidst all the seasonal hustle and bustle, I hope you are finding little moments for rest, deep breaths, and maybe even a little calm.
I know you probably have already done all of your holiday shopping and are all set with your gifts.
BUT just in case you havenโt and arenโt, I wanted to share a few of my favorite fellow small makers and artists who make things that would be excellent gifts!
A custom poem by Jacqueline Suskin
The best daily planner by Art Problems
A handheld reusable coffee filter by GDS Cloth Goods
An LP by your favorite artist!
This one by my friend Margot is particularly good ;)
Cosmic Comfort Affirmation Deck
Bandana of the Month Club Subscription
or just a one-off bandana
Tinctures and Potions by Ms. Tea
There are so many incredible small businesses, makers, and artists who make really cool, thoughtful things that would make the perfect gift for your sister, parent, cousin, art teacher, quirky neighbor etc and these makers will appreciate your support way more than a big corporation ever will ;)
And in case you want to get someone a Thread + Sprout pieceโฆyou have three options to do so!
First) you could get someone something from my new print-on-demand collection
Second) you could get them something in the ready-to-ship shop update coming on Monday the 16th at 9 am PDT (paid substack subscribers always get early access). This shop update will include small wall hangings, fabric bolo ties, some fluffy hats, and more!
Third) you could get them a thread + sprout gift card so they can order their dream piece in the new year!
Thank you for being someone who supports small businesses and self-employed artists and makers!
I hope you have a good rest of your week.
Deep belly breaths.
Youโve got this.
