Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) Handmade 13" Garden Tool Set
Narrow trowel that is perfect for planting bulbs or removing weeds with a long taproot.
2) Laser Cut Stadium State Map
Stadium Map Art: Laser Cut Stadium State Map - Waco, TX
3) Original Coconut Shell Bowls Pack
Rainforest Bowls are handcrafted by local artisans in Vietnam with upcycled coconut shells. Artisans follow the natural shape and size of each coconut shell, creating bowls that each have their own unique shape, size, and markings. The natural and biodegradable material can last for years with proper care. One tree is planted for every bowl sold.
4) Alembic Copper Still
Home distilling is easy—and attractive—with this striking copper and brass still. Handcrafted with care by artisans in India for fair wages, the design is fashioned after the ancient alembic still. While not in use making batches of brandy, whiskey, and other spirits (you can even use it to make essential oils!), it serves as a striking piece of home décor.
5) Udon Noodle Bowl
Flavour Design Studio: Udon Noodle Bowl - Mushroom
