You're either decorating your tree as we speak even though its only mid-November, or you're burying your head in the sand hoping it might all go away.
Well, it wont. I know, I know.... I'm sorry.
Fact is you need to get on board. And you know when the times comes it's actually quite fun.
So, I thought I would throw this at you.
Let's try mixing it up a bit this year...
I have put together a list of amazing local folks who make stuff with their own bare hands.
I KNOW!
Cause you know gifts have to happen, they may as well be unique, beautiful and full of integrity.
I have included links to their Facebook pages and from there you can get to their shops.
This is the Southern Highlands in NSW, readers. Even if you're not from round here you should really take a look at the incredible talent that we have in this neck of the woods. You can buy from them too, even if you're miles away.
And you'll want to. They're just that good.
100% linen tea towels, from Ink and Weave, proudly designed & screen printed in Australia. They're just so cool, you can frame or mount them and if you really want to, you can even dry up with them. Divine.
Susie Webster's Wearable Art is unique, beautiful, always evolving and made in her studio in the beautiful Southern Highlands. Susie's stuff is also available on Etsy.
Mr and Mrs Munroe make incredibly beautiful timber and wire pieces. They use various materials, and their work is quite unlike anything else. Handmade, delicious.
Ten Thousand Paces is a shop not long ago set up in Springetts Arcade. It is full of stunning local artisans' work, and if you're after something completely unique, this is your spot to shop.
The Sydney Clock company are based in the Highlands where Matt makes these and other gorgeous clocks. His time pieces are also available in Ten Thousand Paces listed above.
Highlands Habitat is a range of divine goodies made by beautiful local lady Naomi. She has a gorgeous array of products including bath and body products and roll on fragrances available at Claytons Pharmacy, Bowral, or you can have custom made blends created for you including personalized labels. Heaven.
