On the 5th day of Christmas

Secret Santa gave to me . . .

5 kinds of ornaments!

Handmade gifts are always a thoughtful gift for a neighbor, a coworker, or as a stocking stuffer. Here are 5 choices of unique, handmade ornaments. Although it is a small gift, it is something you won't find anywhere else! That makes it personable and one of a kind.

1. Rustic Meadow Ornaments

You can choose from these beautiful rustic meadow ornaments which come in large, medium, or mini size. You can buy a set for your tree, or get one special ornament with a charm that shares a special sentiment. They are beautiful and go well with a modern farmhouse decor as you can see on my sister's beautiful Christmas tree in the picture above.

2. Little Star Ornaments

These cute little ornaments are simple but unique! They make a great addition to the outside of your package to dress it up a bit, and they are ornaments you keep and add to the tree.

3. Gift Card Stockings

These are some of my favorites because they are so cute and so practical! I definitely give gift cards to the teenagers on my Christmas list, and these stockings are a great way to "wrap" them! It gives that personal touch when giving gift cards or cash, and the stocking can become an ornament, a decoration, or it can be used to give a gift card again!

4. Light-up Snowman Ornament

This little ornament is adorable, and his nose lights up! You won't find an ornament like this at the store. It's one of a kind, and being handmade makes it even more of a unique gift.

5. The Christmas Pickle

The Christmas Pickle is an all-time favorite at our house! If you've never heard of the Christmas Pickle tradition, this handmade ornament comes with a tag that explains it: Start a new family tradition with the Christmas pickle! Hide the Christmas pickle deep in the tree. Whoever finds it first gets to open the first present on Christmas day! The original tradition includes giving an extra present (such as candy) to the person who finds the Christmas pickle.

At my house, we hide the Christmas Pickle over and over again because it's just fun to find! This makes a great gift for a family with young kids. I also had a customer last year that said it was the perfect gift for her pickle ball team!

There are so many great, inexpensive handmade gifts that you can give to the people on your Christmas list! And by shopping from a local artisan, you support small businesses while giving a personal and unique gift to your family and friends.
