Make It an Artisan Handmade Christmas - Favorites - Week 7, 2023

Posted November 8, 2023

 

 

It is so very hard to believe (at least to me - how about you?) that we are already a week into November . . .  and that there are only 5 more weeks of the Countdown to Christmas 2023!  It’s also hard to believe that Christmas will be here before we know it.  According to the ever ticking Your Christmas Countdown Clock, there are only 46 days (as of today) until Santa drops down the chimney once again with his bag of goodies . . . or coal.  With Christmas rapidly approaching, Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions continue hosting the twelve-week Countdown to Christmas of artisan handmade items on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog.  Start or finish your holiday shopping now on the Countdown - Week 7 - a perfect place to buy unique handmade / designed gifts!  This week, 33 items from 11 artisans were shared in the wide-ranging gift collection: jewelry of many different styles, Christmas ornaments, gearhead sweatshirts, keychains, lampwork glass beads, baby gifts and more.  A wonderful motto to follow: SHOP EARLY and SHOP OFTEN!  And, most of all, SHOP HANDMADE to support small indie businesses.

 

In addition to saving each handmade item from the Countdown to Christmas 2023 Week 7 collection to my handmade Christmas Pinterest board and Twitter feed,  I pick a favorite item from each artist (hard to do!) and feature them here on my blog.  Here  are my favorites for Week 7:

Make It an Artisan Handmade Christmas - Favorites - Week 6, 2023

Posted November 1, 2023

 

 

It’s hard to believe that we’re already half-way finished with the twelve week Countdown to Christmas 2023!  Yikes!  That means Christmas is bearing down on us and will soon be here.  According to the ever ticking Your Christmas Countdown Clock, there are only 53 days (as of today) until Santa and his merry herd of flying reindeer arrive once again.  With the rapidly approaching holiday season in mind, Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions continue to host a twelve-week Countdown to Christmas 2023 of artisan handmade items on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog.  Start your holiday shopping now on the Countdown - a perfect place to buy unique gifts.  This week, 39 handmade / designed items from 13 artisans were shared in the wide-ranging gift collection: jewelry of many different styles, fine art prints, gift card / money holders, tote bags, writer’s sweatshirts, lampwork glass beads and Christmas ornaments.  A wonderful motto to follow: SHOP EARLY and SHOP OFTEN!  And, most of all, SHOP HANDMADE to support small indie businesses.


In addition to saving each handmade item from the 12 week Countdown collection to my handmade Christmas Pinterest board and Twitter feed,  I pick a favorite item from each artist (hard to do!) and feature them here on my blog.  Here  are my favorites for Week 6:
