Gift Well | The Bohemia Team's Favourites

This year we're planning to gift well and shop handmade! Whether that's supporting local makers in our hometown of Edinburgh or from further afield, there are so many talented artisans producing beautiful handmade goods that make thoughtful holiday gifts.

From hand dyed leather babouche slippers to jazzy vintage wool pots and block printed washbags, the team at Bohemia have chosen our favourite gifts to help you find something for everyone on your list!

"Slippers are such a useful gift at Christmas time and something you never want to buy for yourself. In April this year, we visited Rashid who makes our Decorative Babouche Slippers (pictured above) in a little workshop in central Marrakech. To watch these being completely handmade from start to finish was really inspiring and helped me understand and appreciate the amount of work that goes into each pair. I'm predicting terracotta will be a big colour for SS18!" ~ Jenna

"I love plants, my room is full of them, so these Beldi Hanging Baskets are ideal! I like the rustic nature and all the different sizes and styles we have. 'Urban Jungle' is a big trend at the moment so they'll make the perfect gift this year." ~ Beth

"I love these colourful washbags, they fit loads into them so they are the ideal to take on your travels. The fun and vibrant patterns come in a range of colours which means there is something for everyone.  The hand block printing and Pom Pom details are an added bonus!" ~ Alison
