A good gift doesn’t have to be big. But it should feel right.
Sometimes, a simple gesture says more than something expensive.
In a world full of things, it helps to ask: Why am I giving – and what will actually stay?
Here are a few ideas we like to share.
1. A scarf with a story
A handwoven scarf is more than just an accessory.
It’s made to last, produced fairly, and crafted with care in Ethiopia.
Every piece from Welana is unique – and made with attention to detail.
A practical gift that becomes part of daily life.
2. Time instead of things
A walk. A home-cooked meal. An afternoon without phones.
Time together often means more than any item.
It doesn’t need much – but leaves a lasting impression.
3. Words that stay
A short note. A personal message. A quote that fits.
Words cost nothing, but they can stick with someone for a long time.
Especially when they come from the heart.
4. For babies: Softness with purpose
A handwoven cloth – for swaddling, cuddling, or daily use.
Soft on the skin, durable in everyday life.
It often stays around for years – and sometimes gets passed on.
Bottom line:
Meaningful giving doesn’t mean giving more.
It means choosing well.
Whether it’s a Welana textile or a shared moment – what counts is what stays.
