It may still be November but it is never too early to start holiday shopping! When going down your gift list this year, we encourage you to consider shopping locally to support Kirkland businesses. To make things easier for you we have compiled a list of ideas and places for you to check out for this year’s gifting! 

Shop Local Kirkland

The first place you should look is Shop Local Kirkland, a database of Kirkland businesses. Shop Local Kirkland was started to help connect people with the small businesses and services that make up so much of Kirkland. We love visiting their website and discovering something new each time that we do! Here are a few businesses we found most recently:

Sweet Cloud Gifts - Specializing in business gifting and offering an assortment of curated chocolates, beverages, and gifts, Sweet Cloud Gifts makes it easy to send your clients, employees, and circles of influence gifts this year. 

Vinceron - Have someone who is really difficult to shop for on your list? Vinceron is stocked with rare video games, CDs, vinyl records, and toys. Browse their online collection for sentimental and one-of-a-kind gifts! 

Hugabox - Give a gift that keeps on giving this holiday season. Hugabox is dedicated to making college students feel less homesick through care packages, and also donates 90% of its proceeds to childhood cancer research. These boxes are a great idea for any family member who you can’t see this holiday season, and it’s for a good cause!

Sosadie Designs - Want to gift more ethically this year? Sosaide designs repurposes ethically, sustainably sourced leather remnants into scarves, jewelry, and gifts! Browse their collection for a unique gift this holiday season. 

Kirkland Winter Market 

The Kirkland Winter Market is a great place to visit if you are having trouble with gifts this holiday season. With local vendors, handmade gifts, and the holiday spirit all around, you are sure to feel inspired and cross all the gifts off your list!
