Story Sheidow Editor/Publisher Little Bird Publishing

hen many people think of the holidays, their minds instantly start to whir with thoughts of overcrowded parking lots, long line-ups, and the faint hum of muzack renditions of classic holiday carols. We often forget, in all the hustle and bustle, how meaningful a simple handmade or local gift can be, and how personal the experience of purchasing it is.

The details like the one-on-one service a small shop can offer, or knowing where your gifts are made, and by whom. It’s those little things we sometimes overlook that can often make the biggest impact in our experiences and our overall happiness and well-being during the holidays. Because what are the holidays truly about? - The meaning behind the gifts. Being kind, generous, and thoughtful.

Peace and love. Togetherness. And those things are what inspired us this season.

We’ve created this gift guide as a way to showcase some of the wonderful, local businesses here on the Island: A way to put them all together, and see inside their doors.

This guide is essentially a printed mall: full of talented artisans and unique, local businesses with incredible holiday gift ideas just waiting to be discovered.

I truly hope you enjoy it, and take the time to shop local this holiday season.
