This charming illustration depicts a quaint storefront labeled “Local Love CHS,” framed by two palm trees. The cozy exterior features hanging plants, rattan chairs, a table, and a welcoming “Open” sign on the door. Soft, pastel tones and delicate lines give the scene a warm, inviting, beachy vibe.

Stop by Local Love CHS to shop for gifts, or for yourself, all while supporting the Charleston community.
