2021 Denver holiday shopping guide!
Another year has come and gone. Holiday shopping season is upon us once again, whether our wallets like it or not.
Throughout the year we profiled so many amazing small businesses and artists in Denver that all deserve equal attention. Our 2021 shopping guide is a little smaller than last year, but you’ll see some familiar names like Awakening Boutique, Gasoline and Us and CC Oddities by Cera. We’ve also added some new names to the list selling incredible products. As always, we’ve highlighted Denver-based companies that are woman, LGBTQ+ or BIPOC-owned.
We all feel a little guilty picking something up for ourselves when we’re supposed to be shopping for others during the holiday season, don’t we? But with the companies we highlighted below, it’ll be a challenge not to get yourself a little gift as well. Some of these shops are also offering our subscribers a discount, so make sure you sign up for our email newsletter!
Happy shopping!
