Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts

2) Spice Gallery Gift Set

Take dishes up a flavorful notch with an artisanal spice gift set. Essentials like sea salt and chilli flakes sit alongside out-of-the-ordinary spice blends (ever try lemon peel, sage, and bee pollen?). It’s all directly sourced from growers and farms to ensure purity and freshness, and the blends are unique to Curio Spice Co. A tea towel and handy recipe cards round out this perfectly giftable set.
3) Sphere Candles

Pure Beeswax Sculpted Lotus Sphere Candle
4) Personalized Map Housewarming Art

This custom-made picture art lets you celebrate a new home or pay tribute to your first one. It’s carefully handmade with cut and layered paper that uses maps to artfully zero in on your special location. The finished result is an eye-catching and deeply personal ready-to-display memento.
5) Copper Fluted Jigger

This pure copper jigger is handcrafted in Mexico, using a tradition that is over 1, 000 years old. The result is a hammered, textured surface that shines with rich history—and measures out ounces for accurately concocted cocktails.
