Small Business Holiday Gift Guide 2021
Cleveland and Chattanooga, Tennessee
Last year when Covid hit small businesses hard, I put together a gift guide as a small way to give back to all the local businesses I love. I thought we would be back to normal by now, but as many of you know, tons small businesses are still struggling in the wake of the pandemic. Plus, with trouble at the ports and shipping, shopping local is the way to go! So this is my second annual Small Business Gift Guide! Instead of spending money with large retailers, let’s give back to the mom and pop shops. The “little guys.” The people who will do a happy dance with each order. Our community.
Stitch the Joy
Literally every picture Rachael posts of her items makes my heart happy. You can also do custom orders through her instagram!
CM Charcuterie
The best gift for any host or foodie–a charcuterie box! Every box and board looks absolutely delicious.

A Chattanooga-owned Roaster, this is some of the smoothest coffee I have ever had.

Cluster Funk
I first saw Brooke’s work at the River Market in Chattanooga and immediately fell in love with her whimsical, hip art pieces. I’ve since bought four Dolly Parton prints from her–who could blame me?
The Hatch Outfitters
If the men in your world are anything like mine, a day on the river is always the goal. The Hatch, located in Chattanooga, has all the gear and the clothing to put them on the water in style.
