Some Favorite Colorado-Made Products

I have long been a fan of locally made products and supporting them. I can’t think of a better time to invite people to get to know makers and support small businesses. Here are just a few items made in Colorado that I really like:

Right now, we are all washing our hands so diligently (or we’re supposed to be!) and as my skin gets drier with each wash, I’m relying more and more on my favorite body butter from Belli Fiori on the Western Slope. It smells fantastic, fills in the cracks, and is good for the whole body.

If you click that link, you will also see they sell soap, so you can fulfill both needs! Perfect for Easter baskets, in my opinion.

Speaking of Easter, Colorado is home to some pretty wonderful candy.

Enstrom Toffee & Confectionary is taking online orders for their “world famous” almond toffee along with milk and dark chocolate confections. Toffee is to me what doughnuts are to Homer Simpson so I’m drooling already.

Hammond’s is known to so many Colorado families who have toured the factory, but those tours are on hold for now. Instead, you can get free shipping on some orders and a discount on Easter candy. Those giant colorful, swirly lollipops count as Easter candy and can last for a long time.

The Knotty Tie Co. is usually in the business of making stylish bow ties and neck ties for men, along with coordinating scarves for women. These days they’ve added protective face masks to their online shop. Ties and such can be made to order using color matching and with recycled materials.

I might add more wonderful products here soon…
