With the festive season fast approaching, it’s time to stock up on gift ideas for your loved ones! Nana is here to help.
One of my favorite places to shop is Etsy. If you have never checked out Etsy, you really should. Etsy offers one of a kind, hard to find items from independent sellers including unique handmade gifts as well as some fabulous items for crafters of all kinds.
Before I go on, you should know that I am an Etsy affiliate. This means that if you click on my links, I receive a small commission for any products you buy. This helps to keep my website active so I can continue sharing with you! Nana only becomes an affiliate with companies she loves and can honestly recommend and Etsy is one of my favorite places to shop.
THE ETSY GIFT GUIDES
Need suggestions for an awesome gift? By using the gift guides you will find gifts of all kinds, for all kinds. Find something special for every person on your list.
These guides offer suggestions for Gifts for Her, Gifts for Him, Gifts for Kids and Gifts for Pets. You can also find gifts by price and more.
For the people on your list who seem to have everything, the handcrafted and vintage gifts on Etsy are the perfect way to celebrate what’s so unique about them. Shop for gifts that are customized and celebrate the person’s values—like shopping small and supporting the planet. These little touches make a gift more special. Adding personalization to gift ideas (like a monogram, initials, names, a hidden message, important dates, pictures, and more) creates a one-of-a-kind item they can add to their collection. Or, look for a gift that incorporates something meaningful to the recipient…
EDITOR’S PICKS
Etsy also offers suggestions on their Editor’s Picks page. See daily discoveries from the most discerning and best-dressed people who work for Etsy.
Of course, being the crafter that I am, I love to see the suggestions in the DIY Craft Projects page. The Editor’s Picks for fabrics and kits for numerous types of crafts and projects are highlighted in this section.
