The Irish Gift Guide Part One

I see so many beautiful arts and crafts made in Ireland so I thought I do some mentions on my Twitter account. It’s been really busy and I’m seeing even more beautiful things, so to carry on the support I decided to write a blog post. Part One features things that I have bought, I love them and I thought you might too. So here you go:

Rachel Dubber. Nature Inspired Giftware. Who doesn’t love an Irish donkey? I bought a mug from Rachel this year and it cheers me up every time I see it. I love the way Rachel packages her orders and puts a little card in too. https://www.racheldubber.com/shoponline.html#/

Enagh Farrell Illustration from Dublin. I absolutely love Enagh’s work, I bought a pack of Christmas cards last year and every I sent them to loved them too.  https://enaghfarrell.com/shop-prints-and-cards
