Buying Gifts in Italy

I wrote about some of the things I often buy in Italy to bring home as gifts in my blog:

Does anyone have any other ideas about what makes a great gift?

Re: Buying Gifts in Italy

I buy different types of pasta, pasta you can't find in the US.  It is entertaining to shop in the little food markets that are in every town and city in Italy.  Bags or boxes of pasta are cheap, small enough to pack in your suitcase and it does not break or if it does it does not matter.

I bought miniature ceramics from the local shops. My mom loved them.

Re: Buying Gifts in Italy

Years ago I traveled with a woman who always buys pieces of fabric that she can take home and make into a pillow, cover seats or even frame.  Now I do the same.  They are easy to pack, are beautiful, are cheap and they do not break.
