#StandWithSmall – Shopping local is wonderful! | Lifestyle Series

I think most of us can appreciate shopping locally as it’s a great way to admire small and independent businesses, help out talented people and find unique products! One of my favourite places to #ShopSmall is Etsy! What an incredible place full of creative businesses, individuals and fantastic products quite literally out of this world.Β 

Etsy has everything from Clothing to jewellery, replica props to unique little trinkets and even mythical and folklore creatures in a can! What more could you want? They literally cater to all kinds of people who are looking for specific items. It is my idea of a perfect platform for buying gifts for ANY occasion!Β 

Click the image above to be directed to Etsy! You can discover so many amazing products by Small and independent Businesses!Β 

This Octopus ring is magnificent! It's chunky and beautiful and fits my love of Krakens! It's from a company called AFJewelryStudio

Click the image above to be directed to Etsy! You can discover so many amazing products like this wedding hair piece!

Since my business name is Louna 'Purple Fox', my partner got me this beautiful little purple fox from GreyBunnyAndCo. The gorgeous blue fantasy fox was from DemiurgusDreams.

I adore Etsy and have been lucky enough to been introduced to the platform by my boyfriend who uses it to buy most of my presents for special occasions which I am super lucky for!

For our very first Valentines he bought me this beautiful heart necklace with steampunk cogs and clockwork in from Campsodella. I remember opening it and thinking “How has this beautiful being managed to find something that is so unique and perfect to what I love?” and that’s when he told me about this glorious site called Etsy! I instantly downloaded the app, made an account and the journey of discovery began.

He later went on to buy me these two steampunk rings on separate occasions from a company called CatherinetteRings who are just absolutely glorious in every way! The products created are unique, stunning and perfect for a gift you know no one else will get someone, which is another great thing about Etsy.Β

As I keep saying, Etsy is full of unique shops and products across a huge range of topics and themes. For example here is one of my favourite gifts EVER! It is a little bizarre to some, but I am a firm lover of all things weird and wonderful. Here is a Wendigo in a can by MythicArticulations.

My partner got it me for my birthday and I was jumping with joy when It arrived and I opened it! It’s beautifully made and the materials used are robust and look great. It’s easy to put together and is just a gorgeous little trinket to pop on the shelf; Most certainly a conversation starter!

Shopping with and supporting small and independent businesses is the new thing and Etsy is the perfect place for it. Begin your #StandWithSmall by heading to their site through any images above and discovering a whole world of creativity and wonder!

Thanks for reading!Β To lift your spirits or buy someone you love a great gift, head to Etsy to see what you discover.
It’s a weird and wonderful world on there.
Stay wonderful! #StandWithSmall

Happiness, Lifestyle and all things wonderful.
I always say that the most important thing in life is happiness, therefore that is what I'd like to share.
I'm an honest, kind and happy person who loves sharing my experiences and real stories to help others like me realise they are not alone in this huge world.
I'm a huge supporter of mental health and body positivity and believe we can change the way society is about these topics together.
Just a small girl in a big world trying to be happy!

Here is my unboxing of my first Pause subscription box in April! 

April was all about reading and finding calm through reading. In order to embrace pausing though reading, this month included a task where we make Pompom book marks.

With green yarn it was lovely to follow the guide and find calm whilst making a little pompom bookmark.
