25 Days of Etsy Christmas Gifts. Day Twenty-Five: Montréal, Part Five.

we have finally reached the twenty-fifth and last day of this series! i hope you have all enjoyed discovering new artisans and small businesses and that most of you have found gift ideas that appealed to you. 

please note that almost half of these shops had much more inventory when i first scouted them out and bookmarked them but we're lucky because a good portion of the shops i had fallen in love with are currently set on vacation mode so i can't share them with you at all!

today, the final ten etsy shop are all based in my hometown of montréal, québec. remember them throughout the year, too!

1. sara lagace offers up a wonderful mix of silver jewelry and accessories made with recycled fur. 

2. i love, love, love rocky b creations! i met barbara, or rocky b, at a craft fair a little over a year ago and immediately adored everything she'd painted. if you have anyone into rockabilly, tattoo, psychobilly, tiki, mod or pinup culture, you must check this shop out!

3. for super fun clothing in eye-catching prints, be sure to have a look at what kayleigh peddie has in her shop!

4. i've already featured not one but two items from purpose design but how could i not include julie's shop in this list?? if you have anyone who likes to bake or cook on your list, you must take a look at what's in stock here!

5. le chat clothing is another shop to check out for stylish designs from la belle province!

6. for your mini, four-legged friend, how about a warm, wee coat or even a rain coat from creations anne-claude?

7. how adorable are faux fauna's creations? 

8. josiane perron is definitely another local designer to keep an eye on. why not start this holiday season?

9. in addition to these original, wood and guitar string wedding bands, ebeniste offers up a lovely selection of handcrafted wooden jewelry. 

10. after seeing countless, "rippled" (or, er, warped) bowls made from old vinyl records, i'm really digging groove bowl's sleek, original design. i'm sure someone on your list will, too!
