I’ll keep this short and sweet. I wanted to find local shops and restaurants that might have to eventually close down due to the current pandemic, and make a place where all their gift cards could be easily accessed. That led me to create a virtual mall. A shareable Google Sheet really. I decided to expand it and use the information I’ve already been compiling for months of local maker and artisans, and add them to my mall so everything is in one place.

How it works: There are multiple tabs within the sheet, each one is a category. Each shop or vendor is linked directly to their online shop.

It’s just that easy! If the link doesn’t automatically open, just hit “open link” as it appears over the vendor.

If you want to be added to the mall and you sell online or offer gift cards online, just send me a message and I’ll add you.

Right now the categories are:

• Gift Card Food Court

• Gift Card Retail Therapy

• Online paper goods and miscellaneous art

• Local wearables and accessories

• Online bath and body

• Online artisan eatery

It’s not lost on me, that during times like this, people have lost work hours or their jobs completely, and not everyone has the means to support local. So if you that is the position you are in, take care of you! For those that can, keep supporting local people in any small way you can.
