Handmade soap in Milwaukee. These scents are amazing and Bushyl was born out of Steph’s desire to reduce plastic packaging in her home, and create something safe for her family (+others!). The scents are nostalgic and seasonal. These bars (and some other home/body items) will tickle your senses and brighten your day. (shown: one of my fav, charcoal teatree)

Amazing local ceramics. I adore everything we have from Kim and she is just an incredible person! Also her business in carbon neutral, SO into that. (fav compost/cookie jar pictured)

Local shop attached to Uncle Wolfies (grab food there too!). Curated goods for you and your favs. I love everything sourced here, they offer a curated mix of vintage and handmade pieces, with an emphasis on working with women owned businesses.(my everyday earrings pictured)

We have so many fav home decor items here. From wine glasses, to magical oil painting, to my yellow birthday jumpsuit, my vintage schwin bike and vintage chairs… things I drool over regularly, I could go on. Also they are an awesome wedding + pop up venue.

Their food is awesome but I also got totally lost in their giftshop. They source items that are perfect for stocking stuffers, and other fun gifts. They try to carry many local items and high quality. Pop in shop and grab lunch!

Waxwing has quality handmade work from artists in the community and around the country so that you can treat yourself or find the perfect gift. Always a great spot for local and handmade gifts! Everything from crafts, to art, to home goods, and random things you didn’t know you needed.

Tucked into the Bayview neighborhood, this bright, curated shop has the perfect gift items ranging from home goods, to natural deodorant, jewelry, incense and more. I finally visited this year and wanted to just bask in their space.

Got kids? Need kids gifts? Here you go my friend. This mom owned shop has hip, fun, ever updated kid items. From the coolest clothes to toys - pop in and try not to buy more than one item, I dare you.

This print shop is AMAZING. They work to foster community offering print classes, but also beautiful art, holiday cards, custom work. We got our FAV home portrait done here, as well as holiday cards.

One of the last locally owned books shops in Milwaukee. Boswell hugs you when you walk in, have knowledgable staff, so many amazing recommendations, great kids section, AND guest speakers!
