Since moving into Lakewood, I've developed a new appreciation for small businesses. I love being able to bounce around the city and visit locally owned stores, restaurants, and shops.


The majority of my home decor is from local makers and vendors and I love knowing that I have truly unique pieces that helped support someone right here in Cleveland! It took my awhile to curate the perfect collection of items and plenty of visits to makers marts, markets, and craft shows.


This Small Business Saturday, I'll be following that trend and doing a tour-de-Markets of the Cleveland area. Looking to support some local businesses?


Here's a round-up of the markets and events happening this weekend:

  • Gathering Grounds Holiday Pop Up, Huron (8 a.m. - 1 p.m.): Vendors, sales, and coffee?! Count me in. This Huron Coffee shop will have vendors cozied up inside for Small Business Saturday.

  • Westside Flea, North Olmsted (9 a.m. - 2 p.m.): Vendors range from apparel and accessories to candles and home goods. The indoor market has free entry and food trucks will be on side.The market supports a non-profit with each event.
