A lot of thought and effort goes into making a handmade gift. Often, these handmade gifts mean more to someone than a trinket bought at the store. If you are in a DIY mood or feeling crafty, why not make a gift for someone. DIY not your thing? There are a lot of artisans and crafters out there. Why not support a local artist and purchase a handmade gift from them.
Here are a few ideas to get you started!
Blacksburg Farmers Market – Visit their Holiday Market Saturdays in December
Matrix Gallery – “One of a kind, fine American crafts for your unique style”
New River Art and Fiber – Great local source of gifts and DIY supplies
70 DIY Homemade Christmas Gifts to Make for All of Your Friends and Family – The Pioneer Woman
