Making a list, and checking it twice? We can't quite believe it's that time of year again already – but luckily for all of us, we know just where you can go for feel-good gifting that supports a whole lotta people. Right this way!

The only thing better than a thoughtfully chosen, just-for-you gift? One that keeps giving back long after you've given it. That's one of the things we love most about shopping from small independent retailers, especially during the festive season. At Mustard, we're lucky to work with some truly incredible stockists all around the world, and we know just how much love (and hard work!) goes into keeping their shelves full of shiny things.

This time of year can be truly make or break for many independent retailers. They're up against some seriously stiff competition in the form of giant corporations, but you can't beat the experience of browsing a lovingly curated range of unique, special pieces and talking to the people who know them inside out. Take it from us, every small business owner really does do a little happy dance with every purchase (even if it's in their head!)

Let's meet some of the lovely stockists in the Mustard community, ready to make your holidays extra magical.

Out of Alltag

Out of Alltag certainly lives up to its name with its curation of pieces prioritising one important factor: joy! There’s nothing ‘everyday’ about this design and homewares destination, where you’ll discover unconventional creations to bring any space to life.

Paraphernalia

Like a treasure trove, Paraphernalia delivers a truly unique shopping experience right under the Mediterranean sun. The ever-changing collection of curios includes new and pre-loved lifestyle pieces, perfect for gifting. From Japanese stationery to vintage British tools, there’s something for everyone!

PIET moodshop

It’s called ‘moodshop’ for a reason: PIET is a space dedicated to creating an atmosphere. Founder Christophe Verbeke explains that behind the hand-selected design, lifestyle and interiors pieces there is one common goal: “they bring you in a happy mood.” Put it on your holiday list!

Oosterlinck Home

A family business with people at its heart, Oosterlinck Home will have you feeling right at home, right away! Oosterlinck’s range is chosen for their excellent quality, durability and accessible pricing, and you’ll find your favourite colourful Mustard pieces amongst other furniture, design elements and cookware.

Matsch Mit Sahne

Shopping for the little people in your life? Matsch Mit Sahne was founded by two mothers, Jules and Mira, looking for the right blend of useful and pretty. From baby clothes to bedlinen, Matsch Mit Sahne is the go-to destination for items that are simple, colourful, and beautiful quality (some of our favourite things!)
