One of the things I enjoy most about Etsy is discovering unique handmade items like this wood-burned ornament. I like the stars scattered above the snowcapped mountains with pine trees nestled at the base. The wood used to make this ornament was harvested from fallen branches, so you can rest assured that no trees were harmed in the process of making these ornaments.
When wrapping up gifts, I like to get creative with the packaging. Most of the time I repurpose materials that are readily available (i.e. lying around the house), but once in a while I use something unique—like these birch bark gift tags. They are harvested from bark that has naturally fallen from trees in Maine. I think they’d be perfect little tags for gifts or party favors at a rustic themed Christmas party.
One thing that I look forward to during the holiday season is sitting near the fireplace. I enjoy the warmth it provides while watching the flames dance in the hearth. I always like to use a starter to get the fire going, so when I saw these eco-friendly fire starters, I was delighted. They are made in Hawaii from macadamia nut shells. Use them in the fireplace, a fire pit, or even to start a campfire!
The reindeer on these napkins have some stately tree branch antlers. The napkins are 100% cotton, and the design is screen printed. I think they would be an elegant addition to one’s rustic Christmas décor or as a hostess gift.
This charming tote bag will make a nice Christmas gift for the foodie or the chef in your life. No matter what cuisine your BFF prefers, there’s an diverse mix of round foods on the bag. Jammie Dodger, anyone? How about a burger patty or daifuku? Your food lovin’ friend can use this baggie for toting around books, groceries, or whatever else their heart desires.
