Gifts from Rhode Island You Can Ship Anywhere

We might be small, but we’re a mighty state full of makers and artisans here in Rhode Island. While some of these are favorites we’ve mentioned before—others might be new—but they’re all crazy talented, hard working, and have thoughtful, beautifully designed products. We’re so excited to feature them here and they all ship nationwide (some don’t require any shipping)…so no matter where you live you can indulge in some of the best of what our little state has to offer. Enjoy shopping some of these Rhode Island gifts from small businesses this holiday season.

Lazuli Handcrafted

Beautiful jewelry that’s built to layer, we love the simplicity of their gold chains, bracelets, and gold hoop earrings. Natural elements like shells and gingko leaves make their understated statement pieces feel extra special.

Mend Yoga

Founded by three incredible RI women, Mend Yoga opened their yoga studio in 2019 to huge fanfare. Less than 6 months later, because of Covid, they were forced to close their doors and venture online, but it sure didn’t stop them or slow them down. They’ve completely re-imagined their business and built an amazing online community in the process. They offer new classes everyday and access to 80+ workouts in their virtual library. All of their merch is currently 40% off as well with code HAPPYBABY.
