A couple weeks ago I featured a list of some of my favorite local shops for your holiday shopping this year. Today’s edition is a bit more specific: My favorite Charleston- made products. PLUS three fun local activities to gift someone on your list! Keeping reading, because most of these business owners offer a special promo code to my readers!
Suite 33 Magnolia Tote | Shop This Tote & Her Other Products Here
I love everything Emily designs! How pretty is this? The tote comes in 4 other prints inspired by the Lowcountry and it’s made here in Charleston. It folds nicely so it’s easy to pack and bring on your next trip!

Meeting and Market Candles | Shop This Scent & More Here
Who doesn’t love a candle?! Personally I am burning at least one candle in the house at all times! These candles are hand poured in Charleston and I love that they burn for a long time— 50-55 hours. Marc at Meeting and Market can help you customize the labels for weddings, baby showers, corporate gifts, etc.
Welcome Beads | Shop Welcome Beads Here
Welcome beads are a symbol of hospitality and blessing for loved ones in your home. Shannon and her family hand paint the beads and hand pick every oyster shell. Colors and designs are totally customizable. This would be a special gift for someone new to Charleston or someone who just bought a home.
