The holidays are quickly approaching, I wanted to give you a holiday head start on some of the coolest items in the TTRPG space. And since I joined the Tabletop Creator Hub this year, our 2022 Holiday Gift Guide is going to focus on the amazing businesses that are also a part of this group.

I love that Advent Calendars have become so diverse. Check out the variety of offering and various gift sets:

1. Studio Crowmatic (AUS) - Studio Crowmatic offers amazing acrylic charms, enamel pins, and even cute zines featuring unique characters. My favorite of their pieces has to be the acrylic Enemy Tokens. You have your choice of small to gargantuan and each one works on a standard grid mat. I like these because it allows your players to know how serious the enemy is without needing to buy minis for every encounter. 

2. Shamrock Games (EU) - Shamrock Games makes exquisite handmade leather items for your gaming needs. Their products range from a variety of dice bags, to multiple styles of dice tray. I was especially taken in by the color and stitching detail on the Entertainer Dice Tray. And if you’re torn between a dice tray or bag, they also offer bundles!

3. The Fabled Flame (US) - The Fabled Flame is known for their beautiful D20 candles. Not only do they offer a monthly candle, but they also have collections around the holidays. This year’s Seasonal Collection features five different scents Tinkersnaps, Feywine, Cone of Cold, Frostgaard, and Rimeberry. You have your choice of individual candles, a bundle, or if you’re not sure what scent to get, you can try out the sampler pack!

4. Figmenter - If you’re looking for something really unique, why not commission art of your favorite tabletop character? Figmenter specializes in both renders that are ready to 3D print, or illustrations ranging from a portrait of your character all the way up to a dynamic image featuring your gaming party.

5. Inkling Print Company (US) - Inkling Print company is known for their D&D inspired apparel, and has also expanded to include stickers, patches, and dice bags. But one of their most unique offerings are their hand printed cloth maps. Not only are they super unique, but you could also frame and display them when not in use. I especially love the Forest Feast map! If you want to get a monthly stream of maps, you can join their Patreon for $10 a month. 

6. Dungeon Keep (CAD) - When I saw the Spell Books created by Dungeon Keep, I knew I had to share them. Each spell book has sleeves to hold D&D spell cards (24, 48, or 100). You have a choice of either a pre-made book or a customized option for your spellcaster. I’m especially fond of these Velvet Spell Books.

7. Roll for Creativity (UK) - Roll for Creativity offers a variety of lovely handmade items including notepads, sun cantachers, and even cross stitch patterns. This year they’re offering exclusive holiday Dice Potions. The design of these dice potions are super cute, and I love how they remind me of a magic 8 ball.
