Shop Local for the Holidays

Our minds are all over the place during the holidays. We scramble to get rid of anything that doesn’t spark joy, but it’s really just to make room for all the new stuff: holiday decor, kid’s toys (so. many. toys), festive outfits, and the like. Obviously, ‘tis the season for giving, but when faced with some of the most significant sales of the year, it’s hard not to shop for ourselves a little. To make ourselves feel better about spending all the money on all the things we don’t need, we’re sharing a few Hawaii-based brands and products that we want, love, and plan to gift. Supporting local businesses is not always possible, but this time of year, it feels especially important. So, donate to Goodwill’s Goods Giving Saturday, and read on for special holiday deals from some of our favorite brands. We’re highlighting some festive events, too.

Cheers,

The Edit Hawaii team
