If you have friends and family overseas and are looking for a uniquely Australian gift to send them this Christmas. I have the perfect selection for you from some wonderfully talented local Etsy makers.
I love how these designers, artists and makers have interpreted classic Aussie motifs and icons in fresh contemporary ways. I’m feeling a little patriotic and would love all of these myself. (I’ll have to put in a request to Santa!)
I’ve selected items that are easy to post, and if you ask the seller nicely, they may even gift wrap and post it directly to your giftee.
The post office is really busy at this time of year so make sure you put your orders in as early as possible if they are destined for recipients overseas.
