Shop Small | Helping the Businesses We Love Right Now

Uncategorized

March 24, 2020

Well hello there everyone… I’d say it’s Tuesday, but it seems like we are in a Groundhog Day on repeat all day everyday and I know you feel my pain. Just hoping this new way of “normal” goes away just as quickly as it arrived, BUT today I am hopping on here to share some HAPPY. I’ve been sharing a ton of my go-to small shops, brands and businesses I love to support and wanted to create a full blog post for easy reference as well as tips on how to support small business.

I posted a graphic the other day about us all stepping up to do our part to help those that need us most right now [especially the ones that step up and support us throughout the year] and the response was HUGE in that you wanted to see more and know how you can lend your support to small businesses right now… they truly need us in the biggest way!

So with that, I am linking up a ton of shops I love and think you will, too–many are offering sitewide sales + promotions, give back incentives and more, so take note of the text beside each business as well! We can all work together and that’s exactly what we will do to make the most of this new “normal”. OXOX

Social Threads | I chat about Sara and Maureen via IG all the time… these powerhouses have created a brand like none other and I  LOVE them to pieces! Right now, they are giving you 25% off with my personal code NASHTASH25 [now through 3/27]. They have the biggest hearts and I’d love for you to shop with them, especially now! They are also donating 10% of all sales to Direct Relief through the end of the month… giving back to make big things happen.

I’m Your Fairy Godmother | Our travel planning guru, specifically when it comes to all things magic and Disney! I know many of us are dreaming of days when we will be able to travel again, and when you do, I highly suggest using my friend Sarah Moske. She specializes in all Disney destinations, but also Universal Studios, various cruise lines and all inclusives for adults only AND families. She’ll get you set up in style and make sure all the details from top to bottom are completed so you can sit back, relax and enjoy!! As a travel agent, she operates completely by referral and her clients and it’s no additional cost to you so it’s a HUGE benefit. She was able to reschedule our Disney cruise in a matter of hours and Sarah is an amazing expert.
