Shop Small (17): Spellbook & Candle

                               Since the holidays are almost here, here are some gift ideas.  

Instead of shopping online at places like Amazon, why not shop local?

If you have awesome local businesses, grab items from their stores.

If you're shopping for people outside our area, why not get something super cute on Etsy?

I started this last year, so if you missed those favorites, check them out here. 

And if you want to support me (Thank you!), I do have a small Etsy shop.

And if you like something, but aren't purchasing it at this time, give the shop a like or the item a like! (This makes the seller very happy!)

This week's Shop is: Spellbook & Candle 

A librarian friend of mine runs the shop. It's a new shop, so take a look!

 Nightmother's Kiss

decorate their planners.

I can't picture those. 

But these are super cute!

And one day *fingers crossed*, I'm going to be purchasing this sticker set...

 after I sell my first novel

 (and after I get an agent - all wishful thinking at this point.)

Cute right?

Andi is a card maker and her cards are amazing! I'm having a hard time picking a favorite to showcase.

But since I'm a fan of gingerbread:

She has bookish cards, holiday cards, donut cards...

 Happy Halloween!

Because of the holiday, I'm sharing one of my favorite shops and a print from a classic Halloween movie.

(I have 3 prints  - 2 Christmas and 1 Winter - but I have so many favorites)

The shop is HNIllustration. 

I have to confess that the Christmas prints are my favorite. But I also love the bookish ones and fashion/city ones.
