Christmas is hot on our heels, and it's a time we all think of doing something special for our loved ones, our family, our friends. We can perhaps extend that thinking to cover our local makers, local businesses and our country by shopping Indigenous for Christmas.
Welcome to Country is such a wonderland; an online marketplace for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander products and experiences. Perhaps it's time to
check out the online shop when you're
thinking gifting for Christmas. Especially for family and friends overseas. You can send them something truly Indigenous.
SHOP with purpose and introduce yourself to some amazing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brands.
Welcome to Country is your not for profit marketplace for Indigenous products. Every purchase made from them directly benefits Indigenous artists and communities.
Shop by category for fashion, art, books, beauty and homewares. Why not decorate your tree with gorgeously
Australian Designed Christmas baubles. Very affordable at around $7.50 a Christmas ball on average, and handmade. Check out the Emu Dreaming Honeycomb Christmas Ball and many like it made from handmade paper that is made from cotton offset scraps left over from the garment industry. Sustainability at its best with traditional handcraft made in Jaipur India. The artwork featured on the items are under licence. Royalties are paid to the artists. Better World Arts is a member of Fair Traders Australia and the Indigenous Art Code.
Baubles are not all there is. You can also get an
Indigenous Experience to a variety of destinations. There's the guided bush and cultural walk, twilight bush and nature walk, bush food afternoon tea, on country tour with yabbie lunch and so on. Why not take a look and see what experiences are in your state.
Go ahead and get something special as you're not just buying a beautiful product or experience, you're helping to increase the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander economy and create jobs.
