Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) Stacking Solitary Bee Hive
Bees make great guests. Host them in this adorable, stackable bee habitat and they’ll pollinate flowers, fruits, and vegetables, making your garden lush. Made from sustainably sourced wood and designed to suit their needs, this hotel is good for the bees, the environment, and your backyard.
2) CBD Skin Repair Salve Stick
A full spectrum of relief from CBD salve that works to repair dry, cracked skin, or help minor cuts, bites, and rashes feel better. Organic, broad-spectrum CBD is packed with antioxidants that help it target inflammation, and it can help quell anxiety, too. There’s nothing harsh in here, but plenty of natural skin-pleasers like beeswax, shea butter, and tea tree oil to hydrate, nourish, and soothe skin. Made in the USA.
3) Single Color Pleated Necklace
A fabric statement necklace is the best of both worlds—major visual impact, without the weight. Greek lighting designer Alexandra Tsoukala creates these necklaces with remnants from her lighting installations, using pleated strands inspired by Greek sculpture. The result is a fluid piece that catches the light and moves as you wear it—and can look different each time.
4) Custom Hometown Map Puzzle
Hometown puzzles are a charming way to celebrate a special place. Made to order and hand-finished in the English countryside, each puzzle features your address and a house-shaped novelty piece (known as a “whimsy”) in the center. Crafted of traditional millboard or wood, every map is a personal puzzle to treasure.
5) Personalized Map Love Story Art
Tell your love story with this custom-made picture art. It’s carefully handmade with cut and layered paper that artfully incorporates maps to trace along the journey of your love story. The finished result is an eye-catching and sentimental ready-to-display memento.
