Why Christmas Starts in September for Handmade Palestine

Christmas might feel far away in September, but for the artisans of Palestine, this is when the holiday season truly begins. Every handmade Christmas decoration you purchase—whether it’s a hand-carved olive wood ornament, a fair trade nativity set, or an embroidered star—supports traditional crafts and provides sustainable income for artisan families.

Why Shop Early for Christmas Décor?

When you order your fair trade Christmas gifts now, you give artisans the time they need to carefully handcraft your pieces and ensure everything arrives before December. Early support means:

  • Steady, reliable income for families.
  • Preserving Palestinian heritage through traditional crafts.
  • A meaningful, ethical alternative to mass-produced holiday décor.
