Military Spouse Owned Shops to Buy from this Holiday Season
I love supporting military spouse owned shops so I figured since a large part of people that hop on this blog are somehow affiliated with the military that it was a good idea to round up some of my favorites (and some of yours too) and put them in a gift guide to kick off the holiday season!
Military Spouse Owned Shops
Daisy Faye Designs
Daisy Faye Designs is probably one of the cutest shops I’ve ever seen. If you’re a fan of Rifle Paper Co. style products then you are going to love Kim and her shop! Owned by Marine wife, Kim, Daisy Fay Designs is packed with products that are perfect for literally everyone on your Christmas list this year. From cute key fobs for stocking stuffers to darling and vibrant clutches for the gal that’s always on the go in your life, Daisy Faye Designs has got you covered!
Darrian’s Top Picks:
Oak & Oliver Candle Company
Oak & Oliver Candles are handcrafted in Whispering Pines, NC using soy wax, cotton wicks, and fragrances infused with essential oils. These candles are absolutely beautiful which makes them a no brainer when it comes to gifts. One of these Oak & Oliver candles would be a great gift for any friend or hostess!
Darrian’s Top Picks:
Dubois & Co.
I had the pleasure of meeting shop owner Emilie here in Alaska before her sweet family left and I can 100% say you won’t regret ordering anything from her shop. From essential oil diffusers you can hang in your car to oil shelves and more, if there’s an oily loving guy or gal on your list, definitely check this shop out!
Darrian’s Top Picks:
Charlie Madison Originals
From their website: “More than just jewelry, our bracelets keep you connected to what matters most and become part of your story. Consider them your everyday armor you slip on your wrist, connecting you to your purpose, your community, your hero - reminding you that you’re, in fact, not alone on this journey. Our kindhearted community shares stories of how they feel cherished - from wives who wear them every day while their military heroes are deployed to gifts given at promotion ceremonies, proud mamas who wear them as everyday reminders to keep their military son or daughter close, and brand-new recruits who are proud of their decision to serve their country. What will your story be?” Sign me up, y’all! I’m ordering some of these bracelets ASAP. They even have essential oil diffuser bracelets!
Darrian’s Top Picks:
Bugle Call Coffee
Two things that my daily life embodies: coffee and the military. Bugle Call Coffee was started by a military spouse and is exactly what it sounds like. Premium roasted coffee with a military twist. What I love about Bugle Call Coffee is that each month they partner with another military-affiliated business to promote the community. From single bags of coffee to a monthly subscription, if there’s a coffee lover on your list, definitely check out Bugle Call! I know a few people will be getting samplers from us this year.
Darrian’s Top Picks:
Little Morgans Co
I know Mae, the owner of Little Morgans Co. personally and she is one of the sweetest human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. Her shop is only open for a limited time so if you want to order anything (which you most definitely should) then make sure to do it fast! I can’t wait to pick up a few gifts for the furbabies and Jasper from her shop before it closes! From bows and bowties for your babies to bandannas for your furry pals, Mae has you covered with amazing designs, including West Point patterns!
Darrian’s Top Picks:
Hope Design LTD
Hope Design Ltd. is a company I found during West Point graduation week when my husband was still a cadet. If you’re a military spouse, you know that pins are significant in this life. I have loved pins ever since I was little, it’s something I tend to collect and I love how beautiful and sentimental these Hope Design pins are! These are a great gift for parents and grandparents of service members as well!
