We rounded up a few must-do’s in our fall checklist in the slideshow above because we’re just giddy that the fall is finally here.  Check them out by clicking on the image above.  Cheers, Kat

11 Southern Small Businesses to Support Today

#ShopSmall with Fabulous Finds from these Great Brands
Filed Under > Worth Noting

We take the whole #ShopSmall thing pretty seriously here at WOM.  Being a part of a small business ourselves, we understand the power of supportive customers and fans, and we appreciate having the opportunity to curate, edit and share some of our favorite finds.  As an ode to fellow southern small businesses, I wanted to share a few here today to a) encourage southern small businesses to keep rocking and b) shoot a little love everyone’s way.

Running a small business and being an entrepreneur ain’t a walk in the park, and that’s why customers’ support can serve as rays of sunshine even on the hardest, darkest days.  To inspire you to #ShopSmall now and throughout the holiday season, I’ve rounded up eleven of my favorite southern small businesses.  I’m always on the lookout for brands to know, whether that’s through inspiring missions and values, must-have goods or simply great aesthetics and branding.  If you’ve got a few up your sleeve, leave them in the comments below!  Cheers, Kat

Sapelo Skin Care

Sapelo Skin Care

The Sapelo Skin Care system was inspired by Southern salt marshes and created in Savannah, Georgia. The luxury line helps rejuvenate skin with a healing blend of bioactive ingredients and indigenous Southern plant and marine botanicals found in nature. MKR included their fantastic Renewing Serum in her recent binge-worthy beauty buys, and I had the pleasure of meeting the brilliant ladies behind the brand yesterday (!).

Well+Wonder

Well+Wonder

This southern-curated, web-based art collective was started by a young art broker from Louisville. Mollie Creasons' roots and art studies inspired her to make it easy for people to experience and collect art. Through her beautiful site, finding a painting or piece of art is super simple (and fun). I'm always on the hunt for more local talent, and this is a wonderful way to do just that.
