Holidays are about spending time with family, about traditions and about showing people you care about how much you appreciate them. When I look for gifts that are unique and personal. That is why I am LOVING Amazon Handmade: they offer handmade gifts yet you get all of the advantages of shopping online at Amazon.
I’ve always thought that handmade gifts are the best gifts. They are unique, they are personal and you can often personalize them or custom make them. I always appreciate handmade gifts much more than any other gifts and love not only giving them but also receiving them.
I don’t know why I had not heard of Amazon Handmade before but now that I have discovered it I’m OBSESSED. They have the most unique and amazing handmade gifts with options for every budget. I got all of my holiday shopping done in one day and got everyone on my list something special and unique that I know they will love.
5 reasons why I’m shopping Amazon Handmade this holiday season:
Unique and personal gifts. Amazon Handmade only features handcrafted items from small businesses and artisans across the globe. And many of the handmade gifts can be personalized or customize which makes the gift even more personal and unique! More than 50% of our the items on Amazon Handmade are customizable and made-to-order.
They have a wide array of options. There’s really something for everyone, even for those people who have it all. I was able to get gifts for my kids, for my parents, my friends and even for the kid’s teachers! Amazon Handmade also has great options for hostess gifts and unique holiday ornaments and holiday decor too!
Prime two-day shipping! Yup, you read that correctly: Amazon Prime members get two-day free shipping on selected Amazon Handmade products. More than 50,000 products on Amazon Handmade are Prime-Elegible. This is awesome not only because you save tons of money on shipping but also because you know your gifts will arrive on time.
Easy returns. Another huge advantage of buying handcrafted gifts at Amazon Handmade is that it’s so easy to return them. Just like it’s easy to return any other Amazon purchase. That means that if someone doesn’t like their gift they can exchange it and get something from another artisan or vendor. In the past I have held back from buying handcrafted gifts because I was worried that the recipient of the gift would not like it and would be unable to return it. With Amazon Handmade I don’t have to worry about that!
I’m supporting small businesses. By buying gifts on Amazon Handmade you’re supporting
If you’re wondering what to buy for someone on your list or are looking for some awesome Amazon Handmade gifts I’ve got some recommendations!

I am just starting my shopping now. These look great and I never think to look at Amazon when shopping. Going to check it out now
This hidden gem I will take advantage of this year! I wish I had known this before as i have been the victim of buying gifts other have already purchased for that person. Thanks for the info!
This is a great idea. We owe it to ourselves (and the planet) to do more to support local and small businesses. This (sort of) helps I guess with the support of a giant vendor! At least the gifts look Awesome! Those laser cut wood journals are amazing. I’d love one of those in my stocking for Xmas….
I will have to share this with the missus so she gets a hint 🙂
Ive just seen Amazon have a handmade section and I didnt realize! I love handmade from another popular site so Im going to check out Amazon too. Thanks for sharing.
I never knew about Amazon Handmade! I’ve always shopped on Etsy for handmade gifts, but I will definitely have to check this out!
This definitely sounds like a great idea for a gift for the Holidays! Thanks for sharing! I actually didn’t know about this!
I’d never heard of Amazon Homemade before. So cool. Really like the look of those laser-cut notebooks!
Love this! I always felt hand made gifts were the best! Saving this pin!
I love the prime feature of the delivery within two days and my favourite kind of gift is the handmade one. So I’ll try Amazon handmade for the next time I order a handmade gift, because of fast delivery.
This is the first time I am hearing of Amazon Handmade. It does sound really awesome for gift ideas. The gifts you pictured look amazing. I will check it out for gifts this year for the people I need to shop for.
Wow… really didn’t about the Amazon Handmade service. Really have to try it out though. I love Amazon and I almost buy everything gifts for my kids are from Amazon. I rarely go to shopping mall anymore… Great post, thx!
