Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) Men's Wool Felt Slippers
Step into a pair of handcrafted men’s wool felt slippers and step into something good. Made by Nepalese women with natural wool from New Zealand sheep and Himayalan buffalo leather soles, the simple slip-on slippers keep feet warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
2) 7 Disc Necklace & Earrings Set
Colorful glass shapes (like liquid color) are handcrafted by Amy Holms in Orange County California. With a torch she transforms glass into molten liquid color to create modern, clean, lampwork pieces...earrings and necklaces.
3) Japanese Welcome Fish Soap
Japanese soap shaped like a supersized fish makes for a meaningful (and eye-catching) gift. The red snapper symbolizes good fortune and luck in Japanese culture and this sweet-smelling one is made with a traditional wooden mold by one of Japan’s oldest soap makers. Give one as a unique token of thanks or good luck, or hang one up in your own shower.
4) Organic Terry Cloth Produce Storage Bag - Variety Pack
Plastic bags are no match for the Vejibag, an ingenious produce keeper that’s made of American-grown organic cotton. These sustainable vegetable bags give produce the humidity it needs, keeping it fresh and crisp far longer than plastic. A beautiful, natural product for better eating.
