We have all heard of a wedding gift registry but never heard of one for a birthday, graduation, house-warming or Christmas. So we have taken the time to invent the concept and create a list of some of South African’s best artisans where you can grab something special for Christmas for family, or better yet, add it to your Christmas gift registry.
