I will not make any Christmas gift guides this year but I will be featuring some items that make great (Christmas) gift. For example these beautiful pillows handmade by Skinny laMinx. The design has ancient origins: the little drawing of a duiker that is used in repeat is taken from a 2000-year-old cave drawing in the Cedarberg, just a few hours north of Cape Town, South Africa. The Herds design is screenprinted with waterbased ink onto 100% cotton with a linen-look slubby texture, and overdyed in a natural tone. You can visit Skinny laMinx’ Etsy shop here.
