Gifts for the Environmentally Conscious

 

Balsam Socks
Balsam Solmate Socks

Made from 100% recycled yarn materials, Solmate Socks, hats, and scarves are a wonderful green product.  The sock yarn is created by recovering scraps from the production of other cotton products, such as T-shirts.  The nylon core is made from recycled soda bottles. 

  

What makes these socks, hats, and scarves even better are the bright colors and mistmatched patterns!  These gifts are very soft, and will surely keep your family members and friends warm throughout the year.

 

Belle Fleur Solar Chime
Belle Fleur Solar Chime

For those who love green products, we also have delightful Sunblossom solar chimes and mobiles.  These solar-powered gifts are simple and easy to use.  Light makes them move.  Strong direct sunlight through a window will cause active chiming and spinning, while less light slows them down.  

 

These gifts are even great for areas with very little light.  You can hear the pleasant sounds of your chime or watch the motion of your mobile by placing the piece around the base of a large table lamp. 

Gifts for Candle Lovers

 

Bee Man Candle Co.Just in November, we received our first shipment of candles from the Bee Man Candle Company!

 

The Bee Man Candle Company is a family-owned business located in the hills outside of Syracuse, New York.  Using glass ptichers and custom-designed molds, the company hand-pours every candle using only 100% beeswax.

 

Beeswax is naturally smokeless, dripless, and burns longer and cleaner than paraffin wax candles.

 

We also have bayberry candles by this company.  Bayberry wax is considered to be the rarest of all the waxes.  It is produced by harvesting and boiling the berries of the bayberry shrub.

 

According to tradition, burning a bayberry candle to its base on New Year's Eve ensures one of wealth and success throughout the coming year!

 

We offer taper candles, tealights, as well as pillar candles for those on your list who love candles.

Gifts for Nut Lovers & Chocolate Lovers

 

Blue Crab Bay Co. Display
Blue Crab Bay Co. Products

Our Blue Crab Bay Co. nut assortments will surely please those loved ones who enjoy nuts as afternoon or evening snack.  We have a wide variety of flavors from peanuts with sea salt to spicy honey toasted pecans!  All of these snacks are absolutely delicious.

 

We also have great soups, dip kits, Bloody Mary mixers, and Margarita mixers by Blue Crab Bay Co.  They make delicious gifts!

 

Rex's Roadcrew Crunch
Rex's Outrageous Road Crew Crunch

A more recent addition to the Polish Pottery Mart, Rex's Outrageous Road Crew Crunch is a perfect gift for chocolate lovers.  We have various assortments from milk to dark to even white chocolate concoctions that contain nuts, cereal, among other goodies.  They make wonderful gifts for those who love chocolate.

Gifts for the Kids

 

adult and baby solemat socks
Adult & Baby Solmate Socks

We mustn't forget the little ones!  We have a variety of Solmate Socks for the children as well as babies in your life.

 

And because Solmate Socks offers socks, hats, and scarves in adult sizes, they make fabulous gifts for teenagers as well!

 

Along with our mismatched Solmate Socks, we also have Knitido toe socks in children and adult sizes!  These unique toe socks would be perfect for children and teenagers.
