Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) Alpaca Fleece Aromatherapy Jar
A portable aromatherapy jar packed with fluffy alpaca fleece makes it easy to enjoy a breathe-deep moment just about anywhere. The hand-dyed fleece is infused with natural essential oils. Use one for a quick relaxing or reviving aromatherapy experience or to deodorize a small space. Made in Ohio.
2) Book Themed Lightweight Scarf
Wrap a book lover (maybe that’s you!) in a literary scarf bearing the words from a classic piece of literature. The square scarves are handcrafted in Oregon with screen-printed text that’s heat-set to help prevent fading. Each scarf beautifully celebrates a book or poem in soft, durable, and lightweight cotton jersey.
3) Malbec Leather Wallet
Ezra Arthur: Cash Fold - Malbec
4) King Skyline Lumbar Pillow
Beyond Cushions: King Skyline Lumbar Pillow - Sydney - White
5) 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.
