Special gift ideas (or treating yourself!) (Etsy, Not On The High Street etc)

[SinkGirl]

I was just over on our Etsy thread thinking it would be a really good idea to have a thread about all the brilliant things MNers make and sell so that those looking for a lovely gift can find something unusual and support little businesses. I have seen so much amazing stuff on the small business related threads but I realise most people don’t stray into them!

And if someone is trying to find gift inspiration they can ask here for suggestions, or just share things they’ve spotted around the internet and think others might like!

I’ll start:
I have two Etsy shops. In one I sell paper cut art and prints, mainly maps and TV related stuff. My most popular item at the moment is the Line of Duty Risograph prints pictured, and my custom hand cut maps make a brilliant gift if you’re after something really special :)

In my other shop, I sell beginners paper cutting kits which make a brilliant present, and paper cutting templates for those who want to make their own maps etc.

Please share your links and photos, or things you’re looking for :)

I sell handmade gemstone bracelets (made by my own hands I should add!). I have two styles, one stretchy and one adjustable.

I make personalised cards mainly featuring cute paper people. My shop hasn't been open long but I'm enjoying being creative 🙂.

I don't know what happened there, technology is not my strong suit 😂

I sell fun yoga tops and accessories. Nice excuse to treat yourself now the studios are reopened!

Namechanged for this as I don’t want to have my shop linked with other posts
I’ve recently started selling handmade organic children’s dresses, planning to expand the range as soon as I can
www.etsy.com/uk/shop/RainbowheartDesignGB

I draw/paint portraits of pets, people and sometimes houses, I also create personalised baby shoe drawings, and a few other bits and pieces. I'm still quite new, and working on expanding my range!

Thanks for sharing everyone!

Anyone else feel free to join in :)

I always struggle to find lovely gifts so I’ll be checking out all your shops!

I sell handprinted animal linoprints, and a few original paintings and drawings - with a particular focus on dogs! I'm still adding to my range and trying different ideas out:

Wow, there are some really talented people here!

I'm an Etsy seller too, I sell cards with my own artwork on. I love drawing wildlife so ideal cards for nature lovers!

I'll have some new designs out this weekend too.

@Lauperr your cards are absolutely beautiful! My godson is a huge hedgehog fan, I will definitely be making a purchase.

@Riddo thank you so much! Hedgehogs are adorable, I love their sweet little faces.

We had a hedgehog making nightly visits to our garden a couple of years ago - his name was Hedgley - I really miss him!

Hello, this is my little shop, I sell handmade baby&children's clothes ❤️

@Lauperr , the card is beautiful and really prettily packed, thank you. I will leave a review 🙂. I'm sure my godson will love it!

Lovely idea for a thread op, placemarking:)

Thank you so much @Riddo, I love to pack my orders. I'm really pleased it arrived so quickly!

Wonder if anyone has anything for Father’s Day. I’m out of ideas this year!

I have some hand cut cards (which can be popped in a frame after Father’s Day) but DH already got one as a Valentine’s Day card when I found out I was pregnant 😬

Not sure if I count as a maker (and I now have a website rather than using Etsy..) but I create and sell gift boxes and have a few especially for Father’s Day.

I have an Etsy shop selling felt things - garlands, decorations, keyrings etc. I’m currently working on a hot air balloon garland.

Everything’s handmade to order, so the colours are customisable

For some reason it’s not letting me add a link so I’ll try this way www.ChilliPepperByEmma.etsy.com

I don’t know why my link isn’t working. Can anyone help?

@coralmoongems I love your bracelets, I'm supposed to be on a spending ban but....

Great idea for a thread, I don't sell anything but I find it hard to browse on Etsy unless I have an actual idea of what I'm looking for.

I'm not on Etsy, I have a very quiet Folksy shop and sell mostly on Facebook. I make hand painted dot art, lots of different bits and bobs, still adding to my shop. I've just had a very successful craft fair yesterday, it was so lovely to be out in the sunshine meeting lots of local folk

Would love to see what everyone has for Father’s Day! I need some ideas.

My Line of Duty prints are proving quite popular for Father’s Day and I’ve also got some handcut cards at www.CutScenesUK.Etsy.com

Or in my paper cutting templates shop, templates for cards, photo frames and family trees (or I can make one for you if you don’t have time!) www.CreativismUK.Etsy.com

Please share what you sell or have found for Father’s Day as I need to order something!

I have a sporty Father's Day card 🙂
