Where I Shop. . . .Works For Me Wednesday

This week for WFMW, I thought I would share some of my favorite places to shop. This list is by no means exhaustive (I spend WAY too much time searching around for baking supplies). Also, these shops are not compensating me in any way for the mention.

Cookies & Baking:

Baking Supplies:
(Of course, Sur La Table and Williams-Sonoma are top hits on my GPS.)

• Layer Cake Shop...one of the two cutest online baking shops around!
• King Arthur Flour


• Bake It Pretty...the other of the two cutest baking shops around. Wait until you see the mustache cookie cutter I ordered from them!
  
• Sugar Craft (They basically have everything you need, although their site navigation is not my favorite. I've ordered lots of sanding sugar here.)
• Make-a-Cake (local)

Cookie Cutters:

• Copper Gifts
• Foose
• Little Fox Factory

Boxes & Shipping Supplies:

• Half Price Boxes of Houston (local)...several locations, the nicest owners!

Labels & Business Cards:

• this & that (etsy)
• Moo

Grocery Stores:

• HEB (in my humble opinion, the BEST chain in the area)
• Hubbell & Hudson (awesome gourmet market in my neck of the woods)
• Central Market

Everything Else:

• Amazon

Non-baking

Gifts:

• etsy (there is something neat about buying handmade and you can find something for everyone here!) Some of my favorites: Strawberry Luna, Made by Girl, My Lavaliere, and Saintly Silver.
  

Photography:

• Lucky Horseshoe Photography (local)...I may be a little biased when I say I love this photographer and she takes amazing photos of kids; she is my sister. But take a look at these pics of our son...they are my favorites, ever!

(Cook)Books & Music:

• the library (I'm a big believer in "test-driving" cookbooks.)
  
• Amazon (Great prices, free shipping over $25. What's not to love?)
  

Happy shopping! Be sure to check out the other Works For Me Wednesday posts at We Are THAT Family and you can find my WFMW archives here.
