Did you know handmade businesses begin planning for the holidays in September and some even start in August! I know, planning for winter when it’s the warmest is crazy but in order to accommodate shoppers and still have time to create for their families, they’ve got to start super early!
Each year I try my best to buy as much as possible from handmade businesses because I know the hard work going into each and every item! I also have a pretty good list of creative friends to shop from so it makes my Handmade Holiday shopping easy! This year I have decided to put together a local gift guide to help you do your holiday shopping! Each one of these people are local to Peterborough or the GTA meaning shipping won’t take long and there’s a chance of local pick up!
Make sure you read all the way to the end because some of my favourite bloggers have joined me on this holiday gift guide and have linked up their favourite local shopping suggestions in their own gift guide! If you’re a blogger, link up your gift guide too!
