6 Small Business Saturday Deals!

Take a break from the mall and mainstream stores, and show local and small businesses some love.

During the first ever Small Business Saturday, American Express cardholders who signed up will get a $25 credit on their billing statement when they spend $25 or more at a small business today.

Even if you don't have an AMEX card, many local businesses are still offering deals and discounts.  Here are five Small Business Saturday incentives I found:

F.N.U.E. founder Halley Barney.

F.N.U.E. (From Now Until Eternity) by Halley Barney is a romantic, whimsical jewelry line fashioned from sterling silver, 14-karat gold, 18-karat vermeil, and precious gemstones.  Get a piece of her lovely collection, like the Cloud No. 3 bracelet ($195), for $20 off with the code "LOVE."

Andrew Clark's Wishbone earrings, $15.

Katrin Reifeiss Spiderweb scarf, $47.50.

AC AGATES designer Andrew Clark is known for unusual handcrafted jewelry.  I discovered the Brooklyn craftsman's sterling silver and gemstone-adorned Wishbone earrings at a Shecky's Girls Night Out event and they're a steal for only $15 each.

Wendy Mink Circle of Color Chain, $68.

Wendy Mink Jewelry is offering 20 percent off all weekend.  Just add the code "thanks20."

Katrin Reifeiss's gorgeous, hand-dyed Silk Spiderweb Scarves are on sale for $47.50!

Tryst Arwen ring, $25.50.

Tryst Jewelry is inspired by nature.  This dainty, adjustable Arwen olive branch ring wraps around your finger like a vine and comes in silver (tarnish resistant rhodium) or gold (22k gold plated brass).

Be Fashion has great deals on designer dresses and accessories.
