Stuck with Christmas gifting this year, or wanting to avoid factory-made goods? It’s more fulfilling (and more interesting) to source gifts from local makers and creators, as opposed to picking up something off the shelf. Well, friends, we have the perfect solution! Shop local this Christmas and give something that’s made by hand from the inaugural Mint Art House Christmas Markets.

Expect a collection of supremely talented artists, makers and crafters to come together on Saturday December 11 from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. It’s perfect for all those hard-to-buy-for friends, with art prints, ceramics, clothing, bags, jewellery, Christmas wrap, tags and more. The line-up of artisans is chock-a-block with talent, but you can expect pottery from Beehive Pottery, jewellery from Clh Jewellery, art from Sketches by Marcela and Mitens Art, hand-painted wares from Paper Pickle, and a whole lot more. Seriously – the list is hefty. If you’re keen to take a peek at the full line-up, head here.
