Holiday Gift Guide: For the Makers

By Francoisetmoi

Happy Monday! How’s the Holiday shopping going? If you have a crafter to buy for, well then you must check out this list! As someone who creates for a living, I work with the gamut of materials, and of course have developed some go-to supplies over time. So, I’ve compiled a gift guide for some of those faves as well as some crazy cool, new-to-me products, I’m dying to try out. Like that screen printing kit? Or Oh Joy’s Book? Big or small there’s something for all the makers, crafters and diyers on this list!

  1. Schoolhouse Electric Brass Scissors – a good pair of scissors are a crafter’s best friend, and when they’re modern brass, all the better!
  2. Oh Joy!’s Book 60 Ways to Create and Give Joy
  3. Temporary Diamond Tattoos: So may more uses than just body art!
  4. Extra Artist’s Knife Blades: It’s always good to have replacements.
  5. Hand-carved wood blocks for stamping paper and fabric: Large Square Block
  6. Hand-carved wood blocks for stamping paper and fabric: Small Round Block
  7. Montana Gold Spray Paints – the best in vibrancy and coverage!
  8. Extra-thick Gold Alphabet Stickers
  9. Wood Handle Calligraphy Set with Multiple Ink Colors
  10. Envelope Liner Templates – snail mail in style
  11. Martha Stewart Acrylic Paints are my favorite to use. She has the best colors and a good gold.
  12. DIY Screen Printing Kit for Paper & Fabric. Let’s get printing!
  13. Colored Pencil Set in Brass Holder
  14. Waterbrush Pens (for watercolor lettering–my new favorite technique!)
  15. Foil Applicator Starter Kit – A slimline, but mighty tool that heatsets metallic gold to your projects. I need one of these in my life!
  16. Fancy Party Fans. Imagine the possibilities for these jewels.
  17. Watercolor Paint Palette to use with #14.
  18. Wood Grain Adhesive Paper + The Cararra Marble Adhesive Paper is pretty rad too!
