We are nearing the end of these holiday market gift guides! The eleventh installation is near and dear to the author's heart (yes, all these guides are courtesy of Virginia, owner/crafter/activist behind gather here). These are small businesses that I believe are changing the small business landscape for our community. If your gift recipient is tuned into social justice and community activism then we think they'll love that you supported any of these small businesses. As self-proclaimed social justice warriors, we are proud to have so many of our vendors at the 2019 Inman Holiday Market that are committed to...

We all have people in our life who appear to have everything they could ever need. So we put together our tenth guide with those people in mind. From a hand-bound notebook printed with care to organic explorations in clay to the perfect hot sauce to complete any meal to simple jewelry that you'll put on and forget about - we think even someone with everything would still appreciate these handcrafted gifts. Excited to have Barry's Hot Sauce and Formal Evolution join us for the first time! Checkout Middle Dune, Barry's Hot Sauce, Formal Evolution, and Little Pancakes. These local...

Our ninth gift guide features gifts for your friends and family with the coziest of homes. We first thought we'd call this a Gift Guide for Homebodies but honestly, if you decorated with any or all of these gifts you'd want to invite people over to appreciate them. We're really excited to have Elizabeth Benotti Ceramics and Violette Tide Studios join us for the first time! Checkout Loomination, Elizabeth Benotti Ceramics, Violette Tide Studios, and HBMK Studios. These local makers (and many more) will be at the 2019 Gather Here Holiday Market on Sunday, December 15th!

If you've been following along since we launched our gift guides on December 2, 2019 - you probably have figured out that we've put together 12 Days of Gift Guides! The eighth installment features makers for makers. Seriously. These vendors have created items that your "I'm more than a hobbyist, I'm an obsessive maker" friend/family member will more than appreciate. Quilts, fine handwork, small batch vinger, and more. Checkout Quilted by Stephanie Cave, Loop by Loop Studio, Marigold Glassworks, Emily Tirella Embroidery, and Bauman's Best Botanicals. These local makers (and many more) will be at the 2019 Gather Here Holiday Market...

The seventh installment of our holiday market gift guide features gifts for your snail mail pals. This could mean the people who you mail things to - real mail, using USPS stamps. Or people who love to send snail mail. As lovers of snail mail we struggled to choose *just* four because the majority of the 2019 vendors have great gifts to mail! So don't let us tell you what to do - these are simply suggestions. Checkout Lunch City Studio, Migration Goods, Islay's Terrace, and Lindsay Blevins Illustrations! These local makers (and many more) will be at the 2019 Gather...
