Holiday Gift Guide ~ NOVICA has an Amazing Gift Finder! {Giveaway}

I have always loved giving and receiving hand made gifts. They mean so much more than a store-bought gift. Well, if you are looking for some truly unique and special gifts you HAVE to check out NOVICA. This company allows worldwide artisans to have a platform on which they can showcase their talent and creations. You would be surprised with all the artisans that are featured through NOVICA...there are some very talented people in this world and if it wasn't for this company, we would probably never know about them. Here is a little bit more of how NOVICA works...

We want to give artists and artisans around the world a global platform to express their true artistic talents and to spur their creativity. And, we want to provide you with access to unique, hard-to-find items at great values that only the Internet infrastructure can allow.

At the deepest essence of our philosophy, we want to create a bridge between you and the many talented artisans across the globe.

We want you to know about who you're buying from. We want you to feel that attachment to the product and to the hands that created it.

In the spirit of the Internet, let us bring you together.

NOVICA. The World is Your Market.

I wanted to take a minute to tell you about NOVICA's new Artisan-Powered Gift Finder, which is allowing so many people to easily pick out gifts this holiday shopping season. I had the opportunity to take a look at this new gift finder and it is wonderful!

So, if you are shopping on a budget (who doesn't these days??) you can choose your $$ amount and look at the gifts that are priced within your affordability range. I personally love this because it means I don't have to wade through pages and pages of items that I cannot afford in order to find the ones I can afford. For instance, I had $40 to spend (thanks to NOVICA as compensation for this post). All I did was looked in the category entitled "Great Gifts Under $50". This gave me a wonderful selection and really broke down the items that I would be interested in.

The Silk batik shawl, 'Jakarta Lady' was what I chose to receive. This particular item is hand made by a woman in Bali by the name of Yuni Kristina. She makes some gorgeous shawls and scarves...which make beautiful gifts for any special lady. I will be giving my shawl to my best friend from Nepal who is living in the states now...she will adore it!

Not only can you pick out your dollar amount, you can also shop by category within the Gift Finder. They carry gifts for men as well as romantic gifts and even...are you ready for this...cooking gifts for the animal lover man.

This Wood Chess Set comes from India and would make a really special gift for a guy...I love it! I stink at Chess...but for those of you who are actually good at it, this would be a good gift to ask for too. :)

NOVICA also carries a whole plethora of beautiful and unique handbags and purses. I know that some women have a special bag for every occasion and on NOVICA's site there are so many to choose from. Thanks to their handy Gift Finder, you will be able to quickly find exactly what you are looking for! :)

So, this Holiday Season may I suggest you begin your shopping at NOVICA? Their Artisan-Powered Gift Finder makes finding the perfect gift a cinch. You will be overwhelmed with the selection and will be able to find something for everyone on your list. By purchasing an item from an NOVICA artist, you can help them have a special Holiday as well.
