It’s the ‘That’s My Jam’ Christmas Special! My guest this week is Emily Beeson of Young Gold Teeth and she’s picked out the best handmade and indie gifts from designers, makers, and stores across the UK. She’s breaking down why she believes in supporting small brands & start-ups, and why it’s worth paying top dollar for goods that will stand the test of time. Be inspired by Emily’s cool-girl aesthetic and meet the makers, the movers, and the shakers that make it possible to shop independent this Christmas.

They make a great afternoon pick-me-up, and would be a cute addition to a stocking or gift this Christmas.
