We love our hometown, and as a small business, we know how important it is to support the community that surrounds us.
Ordering online can never replace a slow walk through a store’s aisles, seeing their hand-crafted displays and envisioning each item being unwrapped by the glow of the tree.
That’s why in today’s blog, we’re featuring our favorite small businesses to shop this Christmas in our local 417 Springfield, Missouri area (and letting you know some deals they’ll have going this season)!
We can’t tell you how much money we’ve spent growing our plant-baby family at Hickory Lane! The first mobile plant truck serving the 417 area, you’ll be in good hands as their team is highly knowledgeable with plants of all kinds. They’ll help you find just the right little (or big) new green friend for yourself or as a gift!
Plus all December long, they’re doing a buy $50 get $10 deal, free Christmas wrapping all the way up to Christmas, plus a giveaway! You can see where the truck will be next by checking out their frequently updated Facebook or Instagram page, or visit their brick and mortar shop.
Open Wed.-Mon. 10AM-6PM and Sun. 12PM-6PM.
1226 E Division St Springfield, MO 65803
Fairly new to the area, Buff City Soap is more than just a soap shop. With handmade ingredients that are good for the skin and the soul, this practical gift is downright pretty enough that they don’t even need to be wrapped.
Great for anyone and all plant-based, you can find all the best care items from bath bombs to laundry detergent. The best part? It's all made in-house!
And for Dec. 14th (today!), they're doing a Buy Three, Get One FREE on soaps, bombs, fizzies or truffles. And starting Dec. 17th all the way through Dec. 26th, they're feeling festive where when you spend $50, you save $10!
Open Mon-Sat. 10AM-7PM and Sun. 12PM-6PM
2750 S. Glenstone Avenue Springfield, MO 65804
When fashion-forward mamas come together to build a business, it’s a beautiful thing. 4theLove Boutique in South Springfield is your go-to place for dresses, jewelry, shoes and accessories (ahem… like a certain headband company you know and love!).

Need a treat for the last-minute Christmas party? No problem!

What’s the fuel that Lilac Market Headbands runs on? Coffee! And local Architect Coffee has got it in spades.

The Market is a great boutique to find the cutest items - gifts, home decor, kitchen goods, women’s accessories, apparel, and more.

With each piece in the store high quality but at an affordable price, make sure to add this stop to your shopping trip.
