​❄️💜 Lel Recommends 💜❄️ ​Small Business Christmas Gift Guide ​❄️ Part 2 ❄️ ​There are two paydays (more or less) 'til the big day, and with the success of last year's Christmas Gift Guides, me and the small business besties are back again - helping you support and shop small this festive season! ​In Part 2 we have: ​@Lexie.loo_ - I have pre-ordered this personalised plushie dumpling because I am telling you, my wee one is going to be beside themselves with this! 😂 Best mum ever! 😂 Also, how adorable is this personalised Christmas tree dec as well! ​@thebitsandpiecesclub-Carrie has so many fantastic items. I've picked a few of my faves: unique, gorgeous handmade cards, this "My Christmas Movie Cup" (which made me think of my friend who hosts a Christmas movie night every year!), and this gorgeous remembrance Christmas tree decoration that brings a wee bit of comfort over the festive season. ​Gratitude and Glow - who are new to Lel Recommends! They are an aspiring entrepreneur and her mum team. 🥰 They make these lovely wee bracelets and keyrings, and sell Gratitude journals! ​Please check out these small businesses and give them a like, comment, follow, and share. ​If you or a small business you know would like to be featured, please comment or send me a DM. ​#LelsXmasChallenge is back for 2026. I am challenging everyone who is able to buy at least one gift from a small business this year, and to tag me in your purchases and/or any cool small business recommendations you find so I can share them. Plus, I will be buying some of my absolute favourites from your tags for dedicated spotlights and a special Christmas giveaway! 💜✨️

I had a wee DM today from one of my OG small business besties asking to be featured in my gift guides and apologising for it, so I just wanted to pop this lil reminder here: You guys can slide into my DMs any time and ask for any help you need! I might not always be able to, but I'll always try to find some way to help where I can! I started Lel Recommends initially to product test and share what I love (coz I hate spending money on products that turn out to be naff!), but also I've always had a real love for the small business community and found a space on here to be part of that! I do my content creating as a hobby, for the joy of it - I don't expect anything in return. Being a hype gal is pretty much my whole personality at this point, and small businesses trusting me to platform them lets me do what I do best. So, really, you are the ones doing me the favour! Hope that clears that up 😂💜
