![]() A year or so ago, I had the pleasure of discovering Novica. I reviewed a beautiful set of hand-blown wine glasses made by Javier and Efrén in Mexico. These glasses are absolutely stunning, and very well made. Each one is a work of art, and no two are the same. We have received so many compliments from family and friends who say they've never seen such beautiful wine glasses! I just ordered another set of cocktail glasses, seen to the left, made by the same talented artists and I cannot wait for them to get here! This is what Novica is all about. They help bring beautiful and unique gifts made by incredibly talented artists to customers around the world. The products come from all over, and are steeped with culture and local tradition. Whether you're looking for something Indian, Asian, Mexican, or African, Novica has thousands of products that are absolutely fantastic! I fell in love not only with their vast selection of unique, handmade items from all around the world, but also with the core values of this amazing company. You see, Novica is not your typical company. This is a company with a deep sense of social responsibility, and they help to improve the lives of many through their online store. Novica is a fair trade enterprise, which means the majority of the profits go directly to the artist who crafted the product, instead of to a middle man. This helps artisans create a better life for their families and community, even in the poorest of countries. It also allows these artists to keep family businesses and trades alive, which have often been around for hundreds of years and many generations. Since there are literally thousands of products, it can be a little overwhelming shopping at Novica. Especially if you're in a rush and shopping for last minute Holiday gifts! No worries, though. Novica has a simple solution that will save you tons of time and even keep you within your budget. This year, they have launched the Novica Gift Finder to make shopping easier than ever before! The Novica Gift Finder is very well organized into several categories, based on price, type of gift, and even gift recipient. There are even loads of gifts under $25. A lot of companies offer very few choices at a frugal price, but Novica has hundreds of beautifully made items at lower price points. So whether your budget is big or small, you're sure to find something you absolutely love! Here are just a few of the items I love the most, found using the Novica Gift Finder. Aren't these absolutely gorgeous?! So as you can see, Novica is a great place to find the most unique, hand-crafted gifts out there. And since they have thousands of products from all around the world, you'll always find something new and exciting from Novica. By shopping with them, you're not only buying sensational products that are skillfully and lovingly made, you're also doing your part to change the lives of the artisans and their families. It's a win-win situation!
Plus, using the Novica Gift Finder makes Holiday shopping an absolute breeze! In addition to gifts at every possible price point, tons of items ship for only $2.99 and are guaranteed to arrive before December 24th. (If you place your order in time, of course!) Check it out, and prepare to be blown away! I think you'll love Novica as much as I do! HOW TO CONNECT : You can check out the awesomeness that is Novica on their website. You can also connect with them on Facebook and on twitter to stay on top of their latest products and promotions! WIN IT ! I am thrilled to announce that one lucky reader will receive a $40 Novica Gift Certificate, just in time for the Holidays! And trust me when I say that $40 goes a LONG way at Novica! How cool is that?! Simply enter using the easy Rafflecopter form below! This giveaway is open WORLDWIDE to people 18+ until 11:59PM December 23, 2012. No PO Boxes.
