10 small businesses you need to shop with this season

As most of you know, I run Ruby & Co and we are by all means a very small fish in a very big pond and without the ability to spend money on marketing, each and every review, share, and purchase (no matter the size) makes a huge difference!
I am on a mission this season to purchase as much as I possibly can from small and local shops and I hope you will join me. This article is highlighting several of my favorite shops with a direct link straight to their shop! How could I have made this any easier for you?!
So, without further a due. Here are my favorites, which will become your favorites. Just click the link on the photo to take you to the shop!
