Autumn Gift Guide 2023
Becky Woolley
There are so many reasons that Autumn is many people's favourite season - the beautiful changes and colour in the leaves and trees; the chance to wear cozy jumpers and boots and the opportunities that this Season brings to meet up with friends and family and go on spooky walks or bonfire parties. Autumn often gives us a warm glow of nostalgia and comfort as well, as we remember the things we loved doing or taking part in during this time of year.
It is also one of my favourite seasons (the other is Spring) so quite a few of my designs are inspired by colours, animals or plants and fruit that occur during these months.
So I've made a mini gift guide with a snapshot of Autumn inspired stationery, pins and bag charms from Daffodowndilly and then an Indie Small Business Autumn Gift Guide packed with some of my personal favourite Autumn themed gifts and treats from some of the makers and artists I love.
