		<description><![CDATA[So Thanksgiving&#8217;s over and most of us have recovered from our turkey hangovers. Tis the season to shop for gifts and prepare for the holidays! Below are some ideas on how you can fulfill your holiday wish lists without ever leaving the city limits. (As a side bonus, when you shop locally, your dollars are recycled in the community through taxes, payroll, etc. &#8212; it&#8217;s the gift that keeps on giving!) Without further ado, may we suggest: #1 Need a hideous holiday sweater for parties this season? Bess and Evie&#8217;s Vintage (931 Foch St) just got a load in! While you&#8217;re there, check out the affordable vintage jewelry &#8212; great for a stocking stuffer! #2 Ah, the gift of togetherness. Let someone unwrap a masterpiece with a gift certificate to Let&#8217;s Art Party (4806 W.Camp Bowie Blvd) or A Piece of Work (5714 Locke Ave). Check out their painting schedules in advance and suggest a date to spend time with a friend over a glass of wine and a blank canvas. #3 For the man in your life that&#8217;s tough to buy for, how about some custom framing from Marty and Pat&#8217;s Frame Shoppe (5025 Camp Bowie Blvd)?

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Fort Worth For Women Joins the Second Annual Small Business Saturday to Drive Business to Small Business Aims to Unite and Inspire Consumers to Shop Small on November 26, 2011 Fort Worth, TX – November 16, 2011 – Fort Worth For Women today announced its participation in the second annual Small Business Saturday on November 26, 2011. Small Business Saturday is a day for dedicating a portion of holiday shopping to local, independently-owned small businesses. American Express, the founding sponsor of Small Business Saturday, created the national program in 2010 in response to small business owners’ most pressing need: more demand for their products and services. The second event will build on last year’s inaugural program that drove millions of dollars to main street merchants. Fort Worth For Women recognizes the importance of small businesses in Fort Worth, the jobs they create and the culture they instill in local communities. Small businesses have generated 64 percent of net new jobs over the past 15 years and employ just over half of all private sector employees, according to the Small Business Administration. “We are proud to have Fort Worth For Women join the Small Business Saturday Coalition,” said Maryann Fitzmaurice, [...]]]></description>
