Christmas Gifts Australia: Sydney in a Box

Christmas Guide - Day 6: Sydney in a Box - A Gift of memories for the Sydney Lover in your Life
Whether you are travelling to visit family or just sending your Christmas gifts across the globe, there is nothing like a little gift from the place you call home. I love to spread the joy of Sydney to my friends and family in other countries so I am going to show you the best places to find a piece of Sydney for you to share with loved ones.
PADDINGTON MARKETS
Sydney’s most famed Saturday markets are the Paddington Markets on Oxford Street in Paddington. It has been the launch pad for many designers and it is a local favourite for finding the perfect gift. For handmade, one-of-a-kind gifts with a touch of Sydney you will find it here.
My absolute favourite stall is one that sells beautiful photographs of Sydney from present day and from the past. There are also comparison collections of iconic landmarks throughout the years, such as Bondi Beach, The Rocks, Sydney Harbour and Manly Beach.

KEN DONE

For decades Ken Done has created iconic artwork that perfectly depicts Australian scenery and culture. His collections have been exhibited all over the world sold in some of the most exclusive galleries. The fine craftsmanship of Ken Done can also be found on hundreds of products perfect for gift giving.
Tea towels, silk ties, umbrellas and t-shirts are just some of the beautiful gifts featuring a signature piece of Ken Done artwork. A visit to his gallery at The Rocks is always a treat or you can shop from the comfort of your home.

AQUABUMPS
For more than 12 years Eugene Tan (better known as “uge”) has been shooting beach and surfing life in Bondi, Sydney’s famed beach. His amazing surf and underwater imagery of the Australian surf are sure to bring back memories. You can buy prints in his Bondi Gallery or visit the Aquabumps website.
