Happy Holidays!! I compiled a list of 50+ products divided via BTS bias from various small businesses and artists—for ARMY, by ARMY. 💟 This was curated based on my mental index of shops I've known for years, a few recommendations from lovely followers, plus some personal digging on Etsy!
As someone who's been in this industry for 1/3 of her entire life, it seems to just get a bit tougher and tougher every year for small businesses to thrive. This year threw one hell of a curveball with economic and logistical difficulties stemming from US tariffs, and not to mention the rampant problem generative AI has become.
Support small businesses and human artists, because we need it now more than ever!
I tried to only pick out products that were in-stock at the time of the making of this guide, but due to the small-batch and often very limited nature of small businesses, things may be unavailable by the time you view them. Not to worry though, if this happens, just check out the rest of their shop! More likely than not, there’s a plethora of other goodies they offer. ☺ This guide is just a drop in the bucket.
Coincidentally, this list ended up consisting of items all under $50. You really don’t need to sell an arm and a leg to gift something thoughtful!
Along with price points, I’ve also included what country each shop ships from. As a person from the USA, this guide contains mostly USA based shops, but there’s a handful of international friends included. Important to note as D-Day will be here before you know it! (Some shops can’t ship to certain countries as well so make sure to check their notices first.)
