Small Shop Gift Guide 2023

Now, more than ever, it’s important to support small shops, buy local, and help creators and makers support their families! Welcome to a Hymns & Home annual tradition: the Small Shop Gift Guide!

In this guide I’ve carefully selected a variety of gifts from small shops that sell online – gifts fit for all sorts of people in your life. You can click on any of the photos to visit that item and seller. Have fun browsing!
