London is home to so many great small businesses and creatives. The holiday season is a perfect time to get out and explore what your community has to offer.

Shopping locally not only supports the economy, but you are more likely to find quality products that can be customized. You also leave a smaller carbon footprint when you support locally (products don’t need to be shipped long distances).

Here are some festive markets that you’ll love.
