Hand-crafted products are not just for grownups. There are lots of artisan creations that capture the spunk and spirit of youngsters. Here we’ve collected 4 special items for kids and teens.
1. FUN FLAVORS OF LIP BALM
Handmade in Wisconsin, USA by Shereen, Blue Poppy Bath & Body
We want our children to be protecting their chapped lips with quality ingredients, too, don’t we? These little tubes are jam-packed with wholesome goodness, such as sweet almond oil, shea butter, avocado oil, beeswax, cocoa butter, castor oil, vitamin e.
Listen to some of the names of the flavors they come in: Banana Taffy, Blue Slushy, Chocolate, Dill Pickle, Fairy Kiss, Minty Mermaid, Orange Creamsicle, and… pizza! They’re sure to be a hit. And get this – they’re only $3.89 each! I’m asking for a friend: is it okay for grown-ups to use these, too?

Here’s a gift for that budding artist on-the-go. A colored pencil rollup! They can also be used for paintbrushes, if that is the tool of choice for your artist. They come in a multitude of fabric patterns: Bandana horses, gears, deer, robots, martial arts kids, spaceships, monster jam, jungle raptors, rainbow starburst, cute dinos, paisley butterflies, and more upon request.
