Last-Minute Gifts for the Design-Obsessed
We love shopping local for holiday gifts! Local boutiques and makers curate with intention, offering pieces with character, craft, and personality you won’t find in big-box stores.
Here’s what we’re coveting at the moment for design-loving friends and family:
- H+E Goods Company (Lido Marina Village)
Well-edited, globally inspired home goods. Everything looks like it belongs, even if you don’t know why (and that’s the point). - Molly Wood Garden Design (Costa Mesa)
Ceramics, vessels and plants grounded in nature. I dare you not to come home with something for yourself too. - Good Buy James (Superior Ave, Costa Mesa)
For the friend that has everything. Curated vintage goodness and guaranteed you will knock their socks off with the unexpected. - Goodies (17th Street, Costa Mesa)
Perfect for gift exchanges or budget-friendly finds that still impress. Everything under $25.
Support Your Local Artisans
Hand crafted pieces from local makers that feel personal, considered and impossible to replicate.
Check out a few of our favorite, local artisan mamas:
- Ceramics By Court (ceramicsxcourt.com) - cute and functional, wheel thrown ceramics
- Kate Ryan (kateryanstudio.com) - beautiful and unique oil & acrylic paintings on canvas
Even last-minute gifts can feel thoughtful when they’re sourced locally. Supporting small, creative businesses just makes it better.
