ETSY Christmas Ideas - Buy handmade gifts by indie designers

So, here it comes, Christmas is literally just around the corner and if you're anything like us, you aren't a bit ready!
So, I've taken a couple of hours to have a very fanciful browse around independent brands on the handmade marketplace Etsy.
Here's a few items I have put on my own Christmas list (fingers crossed Santa!!)
I also found a few items for the other girls in FRANK.
A great couple of hours spent in my cozy lounge instead of trawling around the shops in the blistering cold : )

I love all things 'animal' this necklace is a silver antler and would be a great gift to any trendy girl.

The whole Make-It shop is a lovely natural history collection of wildlife animals, vintage trinkets and modern silver jewelry.

Visit the Make-It Store on Etsy here.

 

These lovely rings would be perfect to give 3 of the FRANK girls

-and they only cost 20$ for all 3!

Hand made by local Malmö jewellery and fellow blogger, Cajsita Design.

Find her Etsy Store here.

This is one of the loveliest things I've seen on Etsy, a truly crafted piece of art,

hand made in Korea by a mother of pearl craftsman, he handcrafts various housewares and accessories with unique mother of pearl inlay technique inherited from Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392 A.D.)

This jewellery box is just beautiful with it's peony design. I think it would look fantastic in Helena's lovely apartment, just need to find the 119$ for it now.

The Etsy shop with these treasures is here.

For Annica, with her adorable little boy Loui, I thought a blanket for his cot,

but with a trendy twist, this Etsy designer- RockerByeBaby makes blankets using skull patterns and other unique fabrics -something for the uber trendy baby, hehe. I noticed that she had a partnership with another Etsy fabric store- Uberstitch and I am so tempted a lovely blanket made using the fabric below, so cute!

Of course, the most sustainable way of Christmas shopping is to buy vintage,

Etsy has an abundance of lovely Vintage stores, whether it be ornaments, jewellery or clothing you are looking for.

 

I found this cardigan for myself, I sent the link to my mum as part of my Christmas list (you can make lists of items you love on Etsy and then send this out to anyone asking for gift idea's, genius!)

I see now that this particular item has now SOLD, I wonder if it will be under my tree Christmas Day? how exciting!

Have a look at all the gift's on offer at Etsy.
