Christmas is fast approaching, and with the festive season on the horizon we’re all hitting the shops frantically trying to tick names off of our shopping lists. To help you find something special for that special someone in your life here’s our guide to six locally produced products that you can get for under $100.
1. Painting to go
Acrylic painted with a leather book strap closure, LOVER FIGHTER‘s canvas clutches are literally works of art that can carry your lipstick and phone. The interior includes a brass loop for your keys. Each is one-of-a-kind and will be sure to be a conversation starter wherever the owner goes.
There are a very limited number of these clutches on special for the holiday season. Contact designer Joanna Baxter for availability: [email protected].
2. All fleeced up
Inspired by life on the West Coast, locally designed and produced Cabyn fleece keeps you cozy and warm, while still looking stylish. On a woman, the long tunic style protects your tush and is even long enough to be worn as a dress. Not only are they easy to wear, they’re also machine washable which makes them easy to take care of too.
