The gorgeous green with Envy, the Blowing Bubbles blown glass beauty, Sherbert, Noix, the sliced wood Grow necklace and everything in Katherine’s signature Found Object collection.

Today’s featured shop for the ‘12 Days of Indie Holiday Shopping’ is Lucky Ducky Designs. Whether you are shopping for your own kiddos, your nieces and nephews or your friend’s little tot, you will find handmade indie goodness for the little ones on your list.

The first featured ‘12 Days of Indie Holiday Shopping’ shop is Bella Luccè, one of my all-time favorite bath & body shops.

They are among my favorite luxurious decadent treats and their products make the kind of gifts your friends will never forget.

The Peruvian Chocolate Bliss Crème is very accurately named and will make the perfect stocking stuffer for your favorite chocoholic. The Vanilla-Coconut Whipped Shea is the ultimate skin-softening luxury and you should totally wrap this one up for yourself to put under the tree. Finally, the Chianti & Grape Seed Crush Body Scrub, which is my all-time favorite Bella Lucce product, will totally wow your giftee with its luxurious mix of Mediterranean olive oil, crushed grape seeds, blackberry fibers and luscious red wine.
