Newcastle Souvenirs & Local Gifts You’ll Actually Want to Keep

Looking for a little piece of Newcastle to take home, send to someone special, or gift to a friend who loves our beautiful part of the world?

At Creative Village Newcastle, we have a lovely collection of locally made Newcastle-inspired gifts, keepsakes and souvenirs, all created by Australian makers and small businesses.

From illustrated tote bags, tea towels and prints by Hello Margot, featuring some of Newcastle’s most iconic places and landmarks, to enamel mugs, stickers and colourful artwork, there are plenty of easy-to-post, easy-to-pack gift ideas for locals, visitors and Newcastle lovers.

 

For something handmade and practical, you’ll also find beautiful ceramic mugs by Fancy Nancy Ceramics, perfect for a morning coffee with a local twist.

Clare Makes captures some of our famous beaches through photography, available as framed prints or postcards. A thoughtful gift for anyone who misses the coast or wants to remember a special trip.

For little readers and creative kids, we also have beautiful children’s books by Suzanne, with stories set in Redhead, along with matching colouring books. They make gorgeous gifts for local kids, visiting families, or anyone who loves giving something meaningful with a connection to the Newcastle coastline.

Suzanne is also a painter, and you’ll find some of her paintings and prints in store too, mostly beautiful local beach scenes like Redhead Beach with the iconic shark tower.

We also stock gorgeous ceramic ornaments by Saltwater Clay, featuring local places such as Pelican, Swansea, Warners Bay and more. They make sweet little keepsakes, Christmas decorations, or thoughtful gifts for someone with a connection to those places.

And for a small but meaningful gift, Fig Design creates keyrings made with maps, a lovely way to carry a favourite place with you every day.

Whether you’re shopping for a Newcastle souvenir, a farewell gift, a visitor’s present, or just something that celebrates where we live, you’ll find plenty of local treasures in store.

Come have a browse and discover Newcastle through the work of our local makers!
