If you have been following me for a while over on my Instagram page (@thefrugalfernandez) you know each year I love to feature my favorite small business in honor of Small Business Saturday. This year I had the opportunity to collaborate with several small businesses. I featured these companies weekly on my feed and shared their background and details on my Instagram stories. I was gifted some amazing, custom, unique, high-quality, cost-effective, beautiful, and special gifts from these companies and I can't wait to share them with you in this collective 2020 Small Business Saturday Blog Post! Be sure to show them some love and check out the promo codes exclusive to my #frugalfam! Happy Shopping!

Stunning Floral Arrangements - that won't die! I was gifted the Seaside Arrangement (shown below). It looked amazing at my parent's beach house! The flowers come from the bark of a real plant and they are considered wood. The owners were fresh flower designers for over 20 years when they decided to explore their talents with wood flowers. Their business took off in April with lots of people choosing to send wood flowers as gifts as an alternative to fresh flowers!

These stacks blew up when I featured them! Simple Stack BookCo can create custom stacks for all your gift needs. Eden gave my parents this stack as a gift and I ordered my grandma a stack with all of the great-grandkid's names. I get so many compliments on this stack and her prices are amazing, to begin with. You can even customize the ribbon design. She also has some pre-made holiday ones to check out!
Tinsley Mia is a Mom by day, bracelet maker by night. She makes the most beautiful personalized, stackable bracelets for you and your littles. Made with love for any wrists you can DM her for a custom order. I am totally shocked and so obsessed with my custom stack. I got "Danny (my husband) and "Eden" (my daughter). She added the cute tassel and the third accent bracelet. The quality is amazing and I am constantly getting compliments when I wear them!! The price point is amazing for her custom designs and quality. I even ordered a matching Mama one to add to my stack!

Okay...this was one of my favorite collaborations. Ampersand Cookies makes the MOST amazing cookies. Like. I'm not kidding. These cookies are the perfect combo of chewy, moistness, crunch, and flavor. Plus they are HUGE! Even better- they come straight to your door. Residents in the Greater Tampa Bay area can order weekly and have these fresh goodies sent straight to your door (or arrange a pickup). They are also hoping to offer shipping- just in time for the holidays. So if you're not in Tampa, have no fear. Stay tuned to order some for delivery. And order the Snicker Doodle. TRUST me!!

Creative she is! She sent Eden over the cutest holiday bows and the sassiest cheetah print one. SO CUTE! You have to buy a bow or hair wrap for a little girl in your life!
