50+ Handmade School Supplies and Accessories You’ll Love

From backpacks, lunch bags and pencil pouches to pencils, family organization and kids anxiety tools, we’ve shopped Etsy to find 50 of the best handmade school supplies and accessories that your kids are sure to love! Shop handmade!

It’s no secret that I have a bit of an obsession with the handmade lifestyle. If I can make it, I will. If I don’t have the time or expertise to make it, I look to see if I can find someone who can. My favorite day would include browsing a handmade marketplace while sipping a cup of chai tea. While it isn’t always possible to physically walk through a handmade marketplace, we’re so lucky to be living in a time when we can browse a handmade marketplace from the comfort of our own home– Etsy! 

We have one week until back to school hits in our town. I don’t tend to do my back to school shopping in one fell swoop, but instead pick up things here and there that I know my kids will love all throughout the year. Today I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite handmade school supplies and accessories that I know my family loves, and I hope yours does too!
