I love supporting Lauren (@aquartzylife on Instagram and Etsy)! She’s a Christian artist based out of Black Mountain and she makes beautiful, colorful, and encouraging art prints, stickers, greeting cards, etc. at very affordable prices. She’s my go-to artist for stickers for my journals and laptop, and at a few dollars a piece, they’re an accessible way to support local art!
You won't catch me calling any of this fair trade.. :) But such an important idea that has brought our family much joy. Shannon probably has a slightly different list, though we have at least one in common. My favorites:
-independent bookstores (of course), especially ones that sell old and used books, including Goldberry's and Book Buyers here in the Charlotte area
-subscription-based journalism!! Especially The Athletic. I will die on this hill.
-craft beer and sandwiches from local markets, especially Rhino Market and the Culture Shop

ooohh, I'm going to look her up right now. I have some people in my family who are sticker-crazed. Thanks!
