I, like most of you reading this blog, and tried to shop handmade and shop local when it comes to Christmas this year. For me, particularly when buying for friends in an effort to spread the handmade message. We don’t have a long list of gifts to buy {thankfully} and not everything is handmade {hello apple ipod}. So here are some of the items that will be under our Christmas tree this year.

Nic, like me, is new to selling on etsy with her beautiful hand-printed tea towels. She also has a new website, with a little help by moi.

I spotted these felt coasters on Lisa’s blog and thought what a perfect gift for our friends [particularly as they all have dining tables worth saving]. I have already received two sets and they are just wonderful. I love them [and have since ordered some for us!]

I have a couple of these tote bags coming from Little Mo and Friends to bundle up some gifts in.

I have a couple of these little scotties by leahkl for some dog-loving little girls.

I bought one of Rebecca’s lovely tissue cosies for someone special.

I bought some coin purses from Penny.

And some cute hair clips from Eloise.

We interrupt this transmission for some {BSP}. Don’t forget, if you order anything from my shop you receive a free 5×7 of your choice. If you are in Australia, there is still time to get something before Christmas. Mini-print sets start at $3.
And thanks to whoever mentioned the DUST etsy team last week. I was particularly looking for Australian sellers and this was a great way to find them. [And this week I joined their team too. A fantastically organised group.]
And if you’re are looking for some more online recommendations, head over to Sarah’s blog where she shares some of her etsy and online favourites.
