2020 has been an incredibly challenging year in many ways, and we have been faced with events we never thought possible. Now more than ever we want to come together as a community and spend time together. The Love Australian Handmade Christmas Gift Guide for 2020 continues to showcase and support small handmade businesses, but we have also focussed on small things that can create memories to cherish. The guide helps bring people together in the joy of handmade - whether you want to buy a handmade gift for a loved one or for yourself, or you and your kids craft some thoughtful gifts using your crafty imagination.
