It’s hard to believe that the holidays are right around the corner.
This year has been rough, but let’s make the best of the holidays! Below are some of the small businesses that I work with, small businesses that my followers recommended, and small businesses that I love! I hope you order a great gift for your loved ones while supporting a small business.
Even if you don’t purchase something from these businesses, remember that supporting small businesses through following and engaging with them on social media is also important!

Dream Achieve Workbook: https://shophannahashton.com/
The Dream Achieve Workbook is the perfect gift for anyone who loves planners and staying organized. It was created by Hannah Ashton, an influencer, YouTuber, entrepreneur, and full-time college student. I own the workbook and sticker collection. It has been a game-changer; I have never felt so organized before. If you have any family members or friends that love to be organized, this is the perfect gift!
I also have a discount code for you all! https://shophannahashton.com/discount/EMILYESCOBAR10

With Love Alex Abigail: https://www.withlovealexabigail.com/
With Love Alex Abigail is a handmade clay earrings small business. She has product launches about every other week at 5 pm PST. I recommend being on your laptop right at 5 because her earrings often sell out within minutes. Since each pair of earrings is handmade, there are a limited amount of pairs for each design. Alex, the owner, hosts giveaways often. She also posts on her social media accounts often to engage with her customers and followers. Alex’s earrings are perfect for earring lovers!

Lawn Card Fairies: https://www.instagram.com/lawncardfairies/
The Lawn Card Fairies create personalized celebration lawn cards for any occasion. Give the gift of encouragement, happiness, and celebration with a lawn card. This is a great gift for anyone who wants to celebrate something special during COVID but doesn’t know how!
Those are all of the small businesses for this gift guide! I hope you found this helpful and decide to support some of these amazing small businesses this holiday season!
Forever Always,
Emily
