Score a few handmade goods for your favorite co-ed! Photo: Byrd and Belle, Etsy

Here at Holidash, we're all about supporting local goods. Of course, one of our favorite sources for shopping handmade is Etsy.com, where gifts abound and prices enliven. Why not join us this season as we offer 12 gift guides (minus the partridge in a pear tree!) spotlighting our top picks from Etsy, organized for every recipient on your holiday list?

We're jump-starting the series with a hard-to-shop-for crew: those feisty college bound kiddies. Check out what we've got in store for our future academics!:

1. Designer greeting cards (set of 4), $10, SheDraws
A great stocking stuffer to remind your son to write home -- or else.

2. iPhone case, $19, ByrdandBelle
It's already attached to her hip; might as well accessorize!

3. Birdcage vinyl decal, $18.50, CircleLineStudio
Because no one should have to endure an unadorned cinder block wall.

4. Mathlete tee, $14.95, SignatureTShirts
Nerds are soooo on tap for 2010.

5. Junior Messenger Bag, $59, Badimyon
Perhaps if he's toting books, he'll actually read one or two.

6. College Term Paper, $100, Nestlegrl
If you want to be the coolest uncle alive, you'll gift an advance on a written term paper. Seriously not kidding here, although I wish I was!

Happy shopping! Next up? Shopping Etsy for your slacker brother. Stay tuned!
