How to Help Ukraine When Picking Out Decor for Your Home

Lilya of NurseryDecorByLily runs an Etsy shop filled with baby mobiles. Think llamas, rainbows, cacti, and more in all colors that your little one will love.

As mentioned, since the Russian invasion, she’s been unable to produce and ship goods. “I have two little daughters…and my husband went to defend our country,” she said in her e-mail to past customers. “Today we are without income! You can take care of my family and the families of our loved ones by purchasing one of these digital products.”

Shoppers are able to donate anywhere from $30 to $100 and each donation comes with a digital banner that represents love and support for the Eastern European country.

The next one is an Etsy’s Pick and for good reason. Many are in Lilya’s situation, but sellers like VividStitchShop are opting to provide digital PDF downloads of how to do their craft to make a living. Lend a hand and simultaneously pick up a new skill.
