The Museum Store at the Huntsville Museum of Art is the perfect place to complete your holiday shopping. This season, shopping local is key. The Museum Store stocks products from a number of small and sustainable businesses.
The first installment of this year’s holiday gift guide focuses on gifts that cost $20 or less. Cross several names off your list without breaking the bank, while still finding unique gifts they will love.
Shop ethically and sustainably.
Get your daily coffee fix while supporting the women of Alabama. Prodigal Pottery works to employ, equip and empower women in need. These products are handmade by Birmingham-area women recovering from homelessness and abuse. Gift one of these inspirational mugs to a loved one knowing you are helping others in your community.
These felted soaps are a bar of soap and a washcloth all-in-one! They are handmade in small batches of natural ingredients and come in a range of scents, from warm and comforting to fresh and energizing. The felted wool acts as a wicking agent, soaking in the lather of the soap so that it lasts longer. The soap lasts at least six months, and then the casing can be reused by cutting a slit along the edge and replacing the bar of soap.
Get cozy.
