I’m listing all my favorite small businesses for online Christmas shopping along with 36 shops from Canada!

Christmas gift guides in support of small businesses with lots of home decor, vintage items and neutral colors.

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.

This post contains affiliate links for your shopping convenience. Click to read my full disclosure policy.

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!

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!

Do you know what all these beautiful rooms have in Do you know what all these beautiful rooms have in common! They are all painted in the same paint color - White Dove OC-17 by @benjaminmoore. 💚 White is one of the hardest colors to pick for your home. It can pick up different surrounding colors which is why you can’t just Google a paint color and paint it on your walls. 💚 For my home, Simply White has worked the best. And White Dove is very similar. Swipe to see  some of these gorgeous rooms. 💚➡️ Check my blog post for tips on the best way to pick any paint colors for your home. Link is in stories and in highlights.

Our basement is the perfect place to store seasona Our basement is the perfect place to store seasonal / holiday / decor items. I’ve had plenty of it over the years (too much!) as I’ve been blogging for 10 years! I went through all my Christmas decor this year before I packed it all away and got rid of so much! It felt so good. 💚 Next, I’ll do the same for the other holidays coming up (like Easter, I have 2 bins just for Easter!). Decluttering is easier when it’s done in stages. I’m also really into minimal seasonal decor lately so I think it will be much easier to say goodbye to the extra ‘stuff’. 💚➡️ What about you? Do you have lots of seasonal / holiday / decor items in your home? ➡️ Check out my blog posts on how to organize these items in IG stories. .

Sometimes it helps to look at your home in terms o Sometimes it helps to look at your home in terms of square footage not how the builder or the previous owner used it. My dining room was once a family room but with our small main floor already having a living room and a very small dining room, we thought this room would be better suited for a bigger dining room (swipe to see the before with the cabinet, the before before when we first bought it and the reno) 💚 It pays to look at your home differently especially during this pandemic. I think we’re all going to look at how we use our homes differently going forward. 💚➡️ What about you? Do you use a room for a different purpose than what it was intended for? .

Oh man, I am so sentimental. It really makes it ha Oh man, I am so sentimental. It really makes it hard to also be a person that is organized and hates clutter! I’m a sentimental purger! 😂 I feel most happy when everything has its place and I’ve kept a few meaningful things, but not too many. Just the right amount. It’s a very fine balance, isn’t it? Do you have a hard time with letting go of sentimental items? I have lots of tips of in my blog post ➡️ Check stories for the link and I’ll keep it in my organization highlight in my profile.
