When to go to Amazon Handmade?

Amazon Handmade is a great place to go when you are looking for a customized gift for any occasion. I find myself buying handmade frequently especially for those hard to buy for folks on my list.

My son can be so hard to shop for so when I found this Harry Potter and Darth Vader print I had to have it for him.

Check Creation Location

One of my favorite things about Amazon Handmade is the many unique seller locations! There are some seriously talented creators from all over the world. I found items from the Ukraine, Isreal, and Ireland that I desperately wanted!

**BONUS TIP – Buy early from international sellers to make sure you receive your item on time. Buy USA made when you are looking for a quicker turnaround on your gift. Be sure to read the item description fully to find out the production time and when the product is estimated to arrive.

Ask Questions!

My kids absolutely love Star Wars and my youngest is learning to read. I found these amazing magnets with Star Wars magnets that are perfect for both of my boys to play with together.

But let’s just say that your kiddo loves Ninja Turtles and the magnet folks don’t have a listing for Ninja Turtle magnets. The amazing thing about Amazon Handmade is that you have access to the artisan. Send a message and ask them if they might be able to create a Ninja Turtle magnet set. A small producer has lots of room to play with new ideas and customized orders so it is always worth asking!

**BONUS TIP – Ask for even more customization. Get your loved one’s name added to the gift or ask for it to be their favorite color. There are a lot of ways you could make the gift even more customized if you just ask. The creator may not always be able to oblige but I guarantee if they can they will!

Roll the Dice

Go ahead! Go out on a limb and order something just outside your comfort zone! A fun and unique gift is never the same old same old so go for it. You never know what amazing sort of gift you will get when you jump in with both feet and order handmade.

I have never tried boutique wrapping paper but I just had to have this Yoda wrapping paper! It is adorable right? My gifts look so fun wrapped in the paper with the matching card! I am so glad I went for something new!

Leave Seller Feedback
