The Heart Behind the Guide
The Give Wrapped Holiday Gift Guide highlights the makers, shops, and brands that bring intention and artistry to gifting. From handcrafted pieces to thoughtful services, each feature celebrates creativity, care, and the beauty of giving.
We believe gifts tell stories, and the best ones start with small businesses and artists. Sure, you can get something on Amazon, but what about something different, something unique and made by a local business?
When you shop thoughtfully, you’re sharing someone’s craft, their purpose, and a piece of their world. And more often than not, you’ll find the perfect gift in the process.
The Give Wrapped Holiday Gift Guide celebrates thoughtful gifting across Detroit, Michigan, the U.S., and beyond. We feature small businesses, artisans, and makers who bring beauty and meaning to every item and experience. Whether you’re searching for inspired ideas or hoping to be included in future editions, this is where giving well begins.

The artists, small businesses, and I all thank you.
