In our annual attempt to divert your dollars away from e-tail giants and put them in the pockets of local artists, artisans and makers, we compiled a list of 15 homegrown gift ideas that range from books to baubles, prints to planters, and collages to "crying" flowerpots.
I really like the idea of supporting local artists and makers instead of automatically shopping from huge online retailers. The variety of gifts mentioned in the excerpt sounds creative and personal, especially the “crying” flowerpots, which look both funny and charming. I think handmade items often have much more character and meaning, and I would rather give something unique than something mass-produced. After browsing art markets like these, I sometimes relax by playing Veck IO because I enjoy switching between creative inspiration and fast-paced entertainment.
Love seeing gift guides that support local artists and makers, it makes holiday shopping feel way more meaningful. And when I need a little break after browsing ideas, I usually play Stickman for a few minutes since it’s simple, fun, and oddly relaxing.
If you want a clear logo with no distractions, this approach really helps. I like how it keeps the main design intact. Makes logos look much more professional.
Playing wardle italiano is a fun way to practice Italian vocabulary while enjoying a daily word puzzle challenge.
I check Facebook Games when I'm looking for something social to play. They have multiplayer browser games that are easy to share with friends. The casual puzzle and card game sections are where I spend most of my time.
