It feels like I am searching for the perfect gift nearly every other week – Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, birthdays, whatever. So this morning I am rounding up a few of my favorite gift shops on Etsy….

This might sound a little strange, but my favorite gift to give and receive is artwork, which is why a photography shop is the first on my list this week.

1. Ooh Pretty Shiny: And if you’re not a fan of giving art as a gift, Photographer, Laura Evans will keep your own house looking good and your art budget in check with her beautiful prints.

Along the lines of gifts for the home, shop number 2 is one to keep in mind for friends and family who aren’t afraid of a little color, or A LOT.

2. SewZinski: Affordable hand painted housewares for your playful home. 15% off! Save 15% off any purchase at SewZinski by entering coupon code ‘letsdothis’ at checkout.

I have a major sweet tooth and nearly everyone I know is the same way (well, at the very least they like chocolate), so giving homemade sweets is ALWAYS a good idea in my house.

5. Nicole’s Treats: Go ahead and indulge, as the tagline says. Nicole’s sweets look so yummy, I might just spend more than $50 in this shop. P.S. She also makes Vegan Granola if you don’t have a sweet tooth. 15% off! Use the coupon code 15OFF10 for 15% off your order of $10 or more.
