Posted December 2, 2025

Tick . . . tick . . . tick . . . tick . . . tick. According to the Your Christmas Countdown Clock there is only 22 days until Christmas is here! It’s hard to believe that 12 weeks have already gone by since the Countdown to Christmas 2025 started. The Countdown has been graciously hosted all these weeks (and many years) by Julie and Harry of Blue Morning Expressions (shop on vacation now but will be open soon) on their Buy Handmade from Makers blog. Yes, Week 12 of the Coundown to Christmas has come and gone and 24 artisan handmade / designed items from eight artists were left in its wake. Any of the beauties will be perfect for a Christmas gift, one that was carefully created from the heart. Support independent artists by helping Santa make it a HANDMADE CHRISTMAS this year!

In addition to promoting each handmade item from the Countdown collection to my "Countdown to a Handmade Christmas 2025" Pinterest board and to my Twitter feed, I share one item from each of the artists who participated this week. Here are my "favorites" picks of the items - it's always hard to choose! I hope you enjoy these unique items.
