With my passport dusted off, and tickets in hand, I am off discovering foreign lands with my dear husband. So naturally we have had travel on the brain for quite a few weeks, and I have stumbled upon some very cool handmade items that are perfect for any global adventurer! So I thought I would share a few of them with you, while I am away soaking up some European sun…
I really love this travel journal from Prairie Peasant:
A perfect home for all your precious memories!
And LaPetiteBoheme’s “whole wide world” earrings are a lovely accent to finish off any outfit with some international flair:
I bet someone with some crafty skills could turn these into some fabulous cuff-links too! (father's day anyone?)
Nellyvansee from Montreal has this lovely globe pendant that lets you keep the whole world in your hand (or at least near your heart…)
it's a small world after all...
You can even bring lots of international appeal to your very own home sweet home. A little touch like this fabulous aviator map pillow from Atelier688 could be just what you are looking for:
This one shows the Peking region... so neat!
And just in case you need something to help pass some time while you wait for a plane, train, or automobile… Check out this cute little travel tic-tac-toe game from MyHappyHobbies :
The fabric "board" is a pouch to hold the pieces, and you don't have to hunt for a paper and pen!
Whether you are having a “stay-cation” this summer, or crossing the globe on an epic adventure, we are all neigbours on this crazy spinning planet of ours… and now you can embrace your inner global citizen while supporting the Canadian handmade community. I call that a definite win-win!

Love your travel picks! I love the old world look of LaPetiteBoheme’s earrings, and I’m intrigued by how Nellyvansee makes her globe pendants (glad she shared pics on the link). Thanks for including my travel journal! Enjoy your travels this summer!
I always love your comments, Laura :) The earrings are my favourites, I think!
