I find that Etsy is a great place to pick up Christmas gifts which are a little different. It’s also a wonderful way to support individuals and independent small businesses and give a custom or handmade present to someone. There’s a fantastic range of Scottish gifts on Etsy to suit all budgets and all types of people. Here’s my pick including prints, jewellery, clothing, home accessories and more:
I love this lino print as it’s such a beauitufl image of a scene which most people who have visited the Scottish Highlands and Islands in the summer will recognise. This lino print is carved and hand-pulled by the artist to create this striking artwork of a ruined cottage in the Hebrides fronted by an inviting meadow of Iris flowers.
£36
The Scottish Highland cow has to be one of the most photographed cows in the country. These shaggy beasts are understandably popular. If you know a Highland coo fan, they’ll love this porcelain mug available in two designs. It’s dishwasher and microwave-safe too.
£10
If you’ve ever been to the Outer Hebrides, you’ll find that this Harris Tweed Herringbone design in teal reminds you of the incredible colours of the sea. This colour goes well with that other very famous product from the Isle of Harris, Harris gin. You can also buy a bottle lamp adaptor to create your own lamp from an empty bottle as a wonderful reminder of walks along the stunning beaches.
Buy lampshade and bottle lamp adaptors from Lucy Wagtail
