I know, I know. Lowkey, the last time I updated this blog was around Black Friday 2020. Forgive me — 2021 has been a wild one. Between starting a business with my husband (hey Station 1923) and starting a new job (hey Sunday II Sunday), ya girl has been bizzz-ay.
Oh, and I got married too. 💍
We’ll catch up on life details in another post, but for now I wanna do what I came to do — show Black owned businesses some L O V E!
If you’ve been rocking with me for a while, you’re no stranger to my annual Black Friday // Small Business Saturday // Cyber Monday sale roundup. I couldn’t let 2021 slide by without putting a list together, but given my bandwith challenges (aka everything mentioned above), I knew this year’s list would have to be different.
So I set my sights on 20+ of my favorite Black owned brands in home and beauty to elevate and promote for Black Friday and beyond. The names on this list should be no stranger to you, as they’ve been around on the blog for years! And FYI: some of these sales are happening RIGHT NOW!
Don’t forget to share this list with a friend!
Black Owned for Your Home
Station 1923 Rubs + Seasonings
Gonna be biased here and wax poetic about Station 1923 for a lil’ bit. My husband Samuel is the flavor architect behind the brand — every single rub or seasoning developed is designed by his hand. He literally builds the recipe for each one by scratch with love, and a whooooole lot less salt than the Lawry’s, Slap Yas, Goyas, and Tonys of the world.
All Station 1923 rubs and seasonings are complete — everything you need to season and cook up a meal is inside one bottle. Every flavor blend is crafted in small batches and are made with no gluten, dairy, artificial flavors or colors, fillers, or preservatives.
