9 Best Gift Ideas for Crafters and Makers

14.12.22 | Katy | No Comments

The holidays are almost here, so let’s keep shopping simple with this gift guide for the general crafter, dabbler, knitter, sewist, or stitcher in your life! These products are perfect for crafters of any level, from beginners to experts.

This post contains affiliate links. If you use these links to purchase something, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for supporting my site!


1. Candle Making Kit

A perfect starter kit for anyone who loves checking out different crafts, while making their home smell good! This great little kit provides your giftee with all the supplies to make their own candles at home.

2. Floral Embroidery Kit

I’m not huge on embroidery, I thrive better with more “rules” to my crafts. Embroidery is just too loosey-goosey, but damn are these beautiful.

3. Kitchy Craftaholic T-Shirt

Not all crafty gifts need to be kits for more projects. A lot of us crafters are overwhelmed with our queue as it is. This is such a cute shirt that will make a great gift for any crafter in your life.

4. Tabletop OttLite

As I grow wiser, and my eye-sight starts to struggle, I realize how important it is to have great lighting in our homes. Sometimes, just a standard table lamp won’t be up to the task. Imagine stitching on black fabric in the middle of winter when the sun literally never comes out. This light is the perfect solution and is a major crafter community favorite.

5. Infinity Scarf Sewing Kit

I received a few sewing kits as gifts last year, and they were some of my favorite gifts! I received an infinity scarf kit very similar to this from Ewe Fibers last year, and it was such a quick afternoon project and the end product is so chic.

6. Dishtowel Knitting Kit

This dishtowel knitting kit would be a great gift for anyone looking to elevate their home. Whether your person is looking to be more eco-friendly, elevate their space, or just to add a flair of their handmade works to their home, this kit is a special gift!

7. Crate Joy Adult Crafting Kit

The Crate Joy Adult Crafter Box is a no-brainer for the general craft-y human in your life. This box has a range of items and crafts that comes with it, and surely will make weekend “me-time” feel a little more special.

8. Quilter Fabric Strip Pack

I’m jealous of any and all quilters. I’ve had one in progress for…. many years now. There is nothing I wish I did for myself more than utilize a pattern that calls for pre-cut fabric packs! These can be used for many projects outside of your typical quilted blanket and will be sure to bring a smile to your loved-one’s face.

9. Craft Related or Pop Culture Mug

Any coffee or tea loving crafter will love these mugs. They’re gorgeously handmade, are dishwasher safe, and make the perfect gift if you pick the right fandom. I love my Star Wars version that I picked up quite a few years ago at a local festival!

Special Gifts For Makers

Selecting well thought-out gifts is super difficult. That’s why we all lean towards gift cards these days, huh? I love gifting meaningful items. When using this list definitely be sure the recipients style matches any accessories or kits you may purchase for them! There’s nothing worse than un-used craft supplies. 😉

A few recent makes and finishes. 👀🔥 1 & 2. A few recent makes and finishes. 👀🔥

1 & 2. The #parasoldress in this beautiful linen, the oldest fabric in my stash.
3. My second #deschain in a neutral I’ve been craving for years. In #berrocoyarn Modern Cotton.
4. My home office/craft room refresh. Pulled the carpet, laid peel & stick tiles, color drenched the walls & ceiling, and upgraded my craft supply storage solution. I’m OB 👏 SESSED 👏! There’s still a little more to do like swap out the ceiling fan, overall clean up and organize/purge my crap, and to finish hanging my cross stitching, art, and curtains, but it’s been so fun to work and craft in here already I can’t get over it.
