Continuing in our Holiday Guide - we have our Staff Picks! Between Laura, Melissa, and I - our choices magically aligned and hopefully speaks to you too! But we cannot stop there, since all our items in the shop our handpicked and curated to artists we truly love. We made a list of all our featured artists! Until then, here are our ‘Team Picks!”
Laura’s top pick is East End Press’s array of Paper Garlands; From dancing skeletons, to turtle doves, who’s to say they aren’t all Holiday themed? Beyond these picks, a cup of tea like a Ritualcravt Blend or a new tarot deck?! How could you go wrong…
…
Melissa’s top pick is our adorable beetle domes! Especially our precious double beetle love bugs (link below) - we have so many choices you have to look at them all and there’s a price point that fits everyone’s budget. Beyond these picks, our crystal zine to brush up on some crystal or a cute taxidermy ornament (to be premiered!) might be the way to go!
…
Alessandra’s (hello, it’s me!) top picks are a little all over the place; from Dreamwing’s real monarch necklace to our cockatoo skeleton - I really can’t choose! Honestly my best suggestions for gifts are either something made by hand (literally the most heartfelt gift imo) or something to do together (maybe a class or a craft/kit to do together?) OR something that would be a great help to their current collection or hobby; a tool can sometimes be the greatest gift (I know I still cherish a tweezer set I was gifted years ago), like a pinning board or ento pins! Our FSW Taxidermy Protection Spray (link below) is also a great tool to help maintain any avid collector collection. OR! A great birding book or new sketchbook to take on your next hike?? All great add ons to any naturalists’ lifestyle.
And of course, sometimes gifts are hard or budgets are tight - Best thing you can do this holiday season, especially to support your favorite small businesses is to like, share, and support <3 sometimes the best gifts are the support alone and the gift of quality time spent together instead of a physical gift - Happy Holidays and hope to see you soon. All gratitude and love to you all for being an integral part of the Oracle Family,
xo, A.
