Small Business Christmas Gift Guide (with 36 shops from Canada)
I’m listing all my favorite small businesses for online Christmas shopping along with 36 shops from Canada!
We have a lot of amazing shops in Canada. Unfortunately, not all are online and accessible to everywhere. Since the pandemic, I’ve really focused on shopping locally more and also sourcing more Canadian shops. I think sometimes I got in a rut of just buying the ‘usual’ name brand shops without looking elsewhere. Now it’s more important than ever to shop locally so I’ve put together this HUGE list of small businesses where you can shop from in Canada, the US and beyond.
Let’s get started with my gift guides from small businesses in Canada.

I am currently love this Vanilla Peppermint candle from River Birch. We keep lighting it and I had to keep telling Aaron to not light it again until I took a photo of it! It has the perfect amount of scent that isn’t overpowering but makes your whole house smell fresh. My other favorite scents are: Balsam & Cedar, Birch, Apple Cinnamon, Maple Cinnamon and Pumpkin Spice.
For every candle sold, they are donating one meal to someone in need!
They also sell fragrant loose tea. Be sure to check them out and support this great small business!
Thank you so much for the candle and delicious sample scents, River Birch!
I hope this list will help you with your Christmas shopping this year. Be sure to support local small businesses!
Happy holidays!
