Gift ideas can be hard to come by and where we spend our money is becoming more important to many of us. Here are some small business gift ideas that your art girlfriend might like!
Knitted lesbian themed items
Many lesbians — butch, femme, and otherwise — tend to be pretty crafty themselves or, in the very least, appreciate arts and crafts. Who couldn’t love this little Lesbian Pride Bee? “This cute stuffed bee is a perfect addition to any office or as a gift for a friend or family member,” describes creator KnitAndWonder. “It’s soft, squishy and adorably colorful. Grab one today and show your pride!”
Lesbian Art Prints
“Art Nouveau is an intricate and beautiful art movement, one I’ve always had a deep affinity with,” described Abprallen, the creator for the art print pictured above. “It was only natural that it would eventually find a place in my work at some point, and as I was stuck with what to create I started doodling, combining my love for Art Nouveau and my love for lgbt history and expression, and this piece was born.
“The lovers gaze with adoration into each others’ eyes, surrounded with a myriad of fauna and decoration as a halo of different symbols sit in rings above their heads. The joint Venus symbols are a strong symbol of lesbian love, together, and unity – make no mistake, these two aren’t “friends”, they are lovers, life companions, girlfriends, soulmates.
“The labrys, or double-headed axe is a symbol of female independence, empowerment, and strength; it is closely linked with lesbianism, as is the violet flower sat next to it – the poet Sappho would speak of her female lovers as wearing garlands or crowns of violet. The lamda icon, to the right of the crescent moon, was used heavily in modern gay history to symbolise the growing movement of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender liberation.
“The other icons, though not exclusively gay, exist as an insight into the creative and nature-loving worlds of the two women featured in this piece.”
Tiddies Out Woven Blanket
What’s more apt for a creative lesbian girlfriend than a woven blanket with tiddies on it? To make it even better, the creator of this piece of art donates a small portion of each sale to multiple charities, including the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
Female Body Planter
“Bring on the best in lesbian art and show off that love is love with this Love is Love Female Body PIanter,” describes ShapeLabs. “Featuring a stunning reproduction of a female body, this female body planter is perfect for displaying both a female body as well as whatever plant you wish to put in it!”
