10 Handmade Gifts for Gardeners (Who Already Have Every Tool)

Shopping for a gardener is tricky. They already own the trowel, the gloves, and three watering cans. What they don’t have is something cheerful and handmade that fits the way they spend their days, and something that keeps them company through the long months when the garden is asleep.

Here are my favorite gifts for the gardener in your life, most of them handmade right here in Boise, Idaho.

1. The Gardener’s Gift Set ($62)

My top pick, and the easiest gift on this list. Each set pairs one of my handmade canvas Garden & Craft Totes with Gardener’s Scrub and Gardener’s Balm from handmade. la conner. It’s everything a gardener needs to haul their gear out and clean up after. Available in Brown, Teal, and Yellow, and you save $6 compared with buying each piece separately.

2. Canvas Garden & Craft Totes ($38)

Sturdy cotton canvas, a colorful printed lining, and a felt flower appliqué on the front. Big enough for gloves, seed packets, and hand tools, and just as handy for a craft project or a farmers market run. Each one is one of a kind. Explore Brown, Teal, and Yellow.

3. Gardener’s Scrub ($14) & Gardener’s Balm ($16)

For hands that have been digging in the dirt all weekend. These make great stocking stuffers on their own.

4. Felt Flower Bouquets (from $18)

The garden goes dormant in winter, but felt flowers don’t. My handmade felt bouquets bring color indoors all season and never need watering, which makes them a perfect “until spring” gift.

5. Felt Poppy Stems ($5) & Felt Daisy Stems ($3)

Single stems are a sweet add-on to any gift. Tuck one into a card or a gift bag, or build a custom mini bouquet.

6. Felt Flower Hanging Hearts ($72)

A statement piece for the gardener who loves flowers everywhere. Handmade felt blooms arranged into a heart for the wall or front door, in three color palettes: Coastal Blues Garden, Blush & Sage Garden, and Sunshine Garden.

7. Wood Garden Bookmarks (from $4)

Tulips, potted tulips, and colorful flowers on natural wood. Perfect for the gardener with a stack of seed catalogs and garden books waiting for winter.

8. Snail Wood Mini Notepad ($9.50)

For planting notes, seed lists, and next year’s big ideas. Small enough to keep in a tote pocket.

9. Floral Fox Wood Journal ($17)

A garden journal is one of the best gifts for a gardener: a place to track what bloomed, what flopped, and what to try next year.

10. Wool Felt Gift Card Holders (from $7)

Giving a gift card to their favorite nursery? Tuck it into a handmade felt gift card holder with whimsy “pop flower” so it feels like a real gift.
