The 12 days of Shopping Local {Toronto}
It is almost that time of year again ladies + gents!
This year I have been thinking a TON about what to get, and most importantly, WHERE to get it!
What is "it" you ask? THE perfect gift, for the best friend, mom, sister, boyfriend, heck even co-worker! SO I have compiled a list of places I know I will be shopping at this year to find those PERFECT gifts for those special loves in your life!
We all know that adorably catchy tune, 12 days of Christmas (sorry if I get that stuck in your head, it's festive though!)
For the next 12 days we will be choosing 12 local shops, companies and even shows that you can hit up!
