Top 5 Gifts Under $500
1) 3 Disc Necklace & Earrings Set
Colorful glass shapes (like liquid color) are handcrafted by Amy Holms in Orange County California. With a torch she transforms glass into molten liquid color to create modern, clean, lampwork pieces...earrings and necklaces.
2) Custom Map Clock with Easel
A custom map clock crafted from marble keeps the memory of a special place—a first home, stand-out vacation, or wedding—alive while it keeps the time. Turkish marble is tumbled to make it one-of-a-kind, and a location from anywhere in the United States and the nine square mile-surrounding area are featured on the map. A compass rose will mark the exact spot and the map’s legend can be customized, too. Cast iron easel included. Made in Rhode Island.
3) Adjustable Straight Knitting Needle System
My Two Ladies: Adjustable Straight Knitting Needle System - US #17 (12 mm)
4) Stainless Steel City Map
Cut Maps: Stainless Steel City Map - 11" x 14" - Chicago
5) Mixing Mate Paint Can Lid - Quart
This can mixer and lid combo for paint, varnish, and stain cans is every DIY-er’s dream come true. The Mixing Mate mixes, pours, and stores in one reusable lid—and makes the whole process easier and neater. The paddle mixes up contents, and a trigger on the handle lets you control pours. Leave the lid on to store the can between uses, or rinse it off to move on to your next job.
