Christmas is our favourite time of the year and one thing we love being able to do is get in the festive spirit early by buying handcrafted, beautiful Christmas decorations and products from lots of lovely small businesses. Have a look at our picks and be sure to check out the other products from all of the businesses we've chosen as they have created more than just the ones on our guide. For our Christmas Gift Guides there were too many we loved to put them all onto one, so we have split them up into sections - Christmas Decorations, Gifts under £15, Gifts under £30 and Cheshire Gift Guide.
We have some amazing products for you below but make sure you keep an eye out on our Insta for our #smallbizsunday campaign where we will share others that we couldn't fit in or we found too late.
Christmas Eve Bundle - £18.50
We had to include our own Christmas Eve bundle from our Stationery and Gifts side of the business - Mint Green Penguin. Obviously we are a bit bias but we love what we've perfected over a number of years to create the most magical bundle perfect for surprising your little ones with around Christmas time. They come with a personalised letter/certificate from Santa and dated tree decoration, as well as a magic key and some magic dust to make Christmas that extra bit special.

Fable Heart x Polar Post - The Believe Crown - £30
This gorgeous luxury velvet believe crown has been created in a collaboration from Fable Heart x Polar Post as part of the most magical collection that Polar Post curates each year of beautiful items, seemingly thought up straight from the North Pole itself.

Wooden Hand Painted Christmas Sign - £20
We love these hand painted wooden Christmas signs from Juno and Jinx. The traditional/vintage style and the quality of each sign means that it can be used for years to come. Made from Maple Ply, engraved and filled with Gold if you choose, they are a beautiful addition to your decor or a display.
Little House in the Woods - £20
The most beautiful detail goes into all of Lotta's House Christmas Collection, it was difficult to pick just one. We've gone for this snow globe design as it's just so cute, but the light bulbs were a close second. The hand embroidered detail means it will definitely be one to treasure year after year.

London Snow Globe Christmas Card - £2.50
London at Christmas has a such a magical feel and this is captured in this festive illustration by Simply Katy making these Christmas cards extra special. We think they would be perfect for sending to your best pals. It also comes as a decoration too, so take a look at the whole range.

Christmas Baskets - £19.99
These lovely baskets from Bella Sophias Homeware can be used in so many ways. We think they'd be great as a Christmas eve basket, to put presents in, or to display as a Christmas decoration - and they obviously look good as a prop in any Christmas photo. You can choose from a number of different designs, depending on what it's being used for and the hand stitched writing makes each one unique.
Advent activity cards - £13
We love these beautiful wooden advent activity cards from The Fox and The King. They make a lovely keepsake and tradition that can get the whole family involved in feeling festive and making the Christmas period magical without eating too much chocolate (okay okay, i'm sure that will happen anyway, but we can try, right). Make sure you check out the whole Christmas collection though as there is so many beautiful items in her shop.
We love creating these gift guides, discovering amazing talent, spreading awareness and supporting small businesses.
If you have a small business and are wanting to reach more people we are always happy for you to message us with your product and it might make it into next month's gift guide or feature on our #smallbizsunday.
We have a lovely supportive small business community that meets local to us in Warrington, Cheshire which we are planning to launch online in the new year. If this sounds like something you'd like to be involved in, take a look at what it's all about below and sign up to our newsletter to keep updated on our launch.
Thanks, Tasha (and Faye) x
