We’re kicking the upcoming holiday season off with the first of many gift guides, where we scoured the internet to look for a collection of gifts that were handmade. When you purchase a handmade item, you’re not only supporting someone’s craft, you’re giving a gift with tons of thought and love behind it. Each item is a little bit different, as an actual human brought it to life, making the gift that much more special. Take a look at 10 handmade items just about anyone on your holiday list would probably love to receive.
