Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) Japanese Welcome Fish Soap

Japanese soap shaped like a supersized fish makes for a meaningful (and eye-catching) gift. The red snapper symbolizes good fortune and luck in Japanese culture and this sweet-smelling one is made with a traditional wooden mold by one of Japan’s oldest soap makers. Give one as a unique token of thanks or good luck, or hang one up in your own shower.
2) Tyvek® Printed Watch

I Like Paper water-resistant watches are a surprisingly durable new take on a typical timepiece. Lightweight, flexible, tear-proof, and water-resistant Tyvek® paper is the recyclable foundation for the fun watches that are all handmade in Berlin, Germany. Artist- and illustrator-designed patterns pack each one with personality and charm.
3) Custom Date Moon Phase Necklace - Simple Design

A moon phase necklace captures the moon from any date and places it into an elegant necklace full of meaning. Choose a special date—like a birthday or anniversary—to keep special occasions and dates close to you.
4) Shaker Rolling Pin

The Shaker Rolling Pin is a classic—possibly the same design your grandmother used. With simple lines and a solid feel, it rolls quickly at a weight of almost two pounds.
