I F I H A D T O C H O O S E a category of gift guides that most resembles me, this one would be it. I love traveling, exploring, eating out and all the fun stuff that comes with leaving the house, but deep down I’d be happy staying in and curling up with a good book, under a cozy blanket with a mug filled with tea, coffee or hot cocoa. That right there is a great night!
So in staying true to who I am, I’ve pulled together a gift guide for the homebody …. everything needed to gift the coziest of gifts to the one who’d love a night in.
Like my last guide, all of the items featured can be purchased online or in-person at a local small business or from an artisan. Most of these small businesses do have online shops, so if you’re not in the Bucks County, Montgomery County, Philadelphia or the Pennsylvania/New Jersey area then you can still support these awesome businesses! Just remember to shop early as shipping seems like it’s on trend to be a bit unpredictable again this year & a lot of businesses are short staffed.
If you are from the area, I highly recommend you check out all of the businesses in-person if you can!
Lastly, if you have any small business you’d like me to feature, please let me know in the comments below & I’ll do my best to add them to an upcoming gift guide!
