Small business edition!

I know it’s really easy to head to the high street or supermarkets to get our kids kitted out ready for the start of the new school year and I’m one for doing this too.

But if we can buy even just one school item from a small business it’ll make a huge difference to keeping them going.

This whole outfit is from some lovely small businesses:

Pre loved dress

Hair accessories

Backpack

Shoes

Drinks bottle

Even if you can’t buy from any of them, giving them a follow and sharing this post so that maybe someone else can will really help spread the love.

Thank you in advance,

Nikki x

F I V E 🎈

Today marks 5 years since our very first event!
It only seems like yesterday and I am so grateful to the 30 stallholders and 500 customers that took part & came along that day!

Without the success of that first market we might have never been able to carry on.
I am so pleased that we have been able to and I’m really proud of how much we’ve evolved over the years.

I have made so many wonderful small business friends from doing this and look forward to seeing all of the lovely shoppers that we have come along each time.

It’s honestly like we have a big small biz family and I love it!

Thank you to you all (businesses & customers) for allowing us to do what we love!

Here’s to the next 5 years 🎉

It’s shop independent day and a day I’m really passionate about celebrating!

Here in Ipswich we have so many wonderful local independent retailers and I’m sure where you are you have the same. They are small but mighty, offer unique gifts and a personal service and they need us to champion them to keep them going. Because without them the high street wouldn’t be so colourful ❤️

So please if you can go and support them, have a think next time you make a purchase and think that you might be spending a little bit more but you’ll be supporting their dream and ultimately keeping them going!

I’ve tagged a few of our local businesses but please tag some of yours below too 👇🏻
