Find the perfectly
one-of-a-kind gift for
everyone on your list.
JODI FELD SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS
Ohhio
European-based Etsy seller Ohhio
uses arm knitting to craft some of
the coziest, softest knitted blankets
you’ll ever see. They’re offered in a
variety of sizes and colors, perfect
for snuggling up with a cup of hot
cocoa and a good book. These
chunky knits are also available in
scarves, beanies — even nests for
your favorite pet. Prices start at
$149 for blankets, but if you’re feel-
ing really crafty, you can purchase
a DIY kit and try your “arm” at knit-
ting yourself. Etsy.com/shop/Ohhio.
Little Cosmetics Shop
Pamela Barsky Shop
Laundry bags, cosmetic pouches, tote bags and pencil cases
with kitschy sayings like “Everyone looks better in mascara”
or “I’m not crazy, I’m creative” can help you say just what you
mean. And, with more than 200 sayings and 300 styles, you’re
bound to find something to please everyone on your list. Each
bag is hand-printed, heat-sealed and hand-sewn on heavy-duty
canvas — and all the canvas items are machine washable.
$15-$31.50. Etsy.com/shop/pamelabarskyshop.
Little girls want to be just like mommy, so Little Cosmetics
Shop has been turning out pretend make-up kits on Etsy
since 2012. The “cosmetics” look and feel just like the real
thing — but they aren’t. No color transfers to her skin, or
your couch, and the palettes encourage pretend play and
imagination. You can buy individual lipsticks, glosses, eye-
shadows, powders, even nail polish. Splurge on a set for
your little beauty queen and they will include an adorable
cosmetics pouch to store everything. Cosmetics start at
$4.50. Etsy.com/shop/LittleCosmeticsShop.
