This week's gift suggestion comes from my favorite place for unique gifts: Etsy! Etsy, if you're not familiar with it, is an online marketplace for handcrafted goods. All week I'll be featuring gifts from Etsy, but consider yourself warned now: if you like what you see, you better go ahead and order it right away. Since everything's handcrafted, quantities are limited. Today's gift is a Llama Felt Snowman Ornament. "4 and 1/2 inch tall snowman with a lavender hat and a blue scarf. He's made entirely from my llama fiber with 'coal' buttons and eyes and a 'carrot' nose." So cute, he can hang from your recipient's tree for only $15.
