For this special Christmas, “20 Minutes” has selected a few local creators, authors and entrepreneurs for gift ideas.
Some offer cosmetics, others clothes, books or even graphic works.
But all of them live in this wonderful Brittany.
With the closures linked to the Covid-19 epidemic, some shops have remained closed.
Elected officials urge their residents to buy local.
The elected officials keep hammering it: to save the local economy, we must consume local.
At a time when some have still not thought about a single gift to put under the tree on Christmas Eve,
20 Minutes Rennes
offers you a small selection of ideas of local products made in Brittany by little hands.
In 2021, we'll be fine.
Autographed books in drive.
The health crisis deprives authors of their literary salons.
In Rennes, five authors of children's books had the joyous idea of launching a "dedication drive" with the La Courte Echelle bookstore to "keep in touch" with their readers.
Once the book has been bought in the store or ordered, the author picks it up and personalizes it.
You just have to come back a few days later.
Rennais Jessie Magana, Julien Billaudeau, Sandra Le Guen, Maria Diaz & duo Kalmedaz, Evelyne Brisou-Pellen and Florence Dolle will be happy to sign them for you.
In 2021, we put writers to work.
Local jars to smell good
.
Founded in 2019 by a couple based in Lannion, the Endro brand offers local and natural cosmetics that are offered in glass jars.
And it's a hit!
Creams, toothpaste, deodorant or even solid shampoo are available.
As Christmas approaches, the brand has obviously thought of pretty boxes that will look great at the foot of the tree.
In 2021, we wash carefully.

A stay in the mountains in Brittany.
He has surveyed the most remote corners of the globe.
But he hadn't seen anything until he discovered the Monts d'Arrée.
After his great journey "On the roads of vodka", the Rennais Nicolas Legendre returns with the book "The Breton Himalayas" where he tells with talent his trips to the peaks of the Finistère massif.
The book is sold in particular in the friendly travel bookstore in Rennes, always offering good advice when it comes to adventure.
In 2021, we visit the Armorican mountains.
A social struggle that has not aged.
That was over forty years ago.
Relieved by the project to build a nuclear power plant in Plogoff, the inhabitants of this village in Finistère mobilized against the police to obtain the abandonment of the project.
Activist Nicole Le Garrec and her husband Félix had followed this social struggle for six weeks to release the documentary "Plogoff, flowers against guns", a restored version of which has just been released on DVD.
In 2021, we remember.
Five girls for a store.
We have already presented you the fabric handkerchiefs of Adèle Loison and the pointillist works of Pauline Bloquel.
For Christmas, the two Rennaises teamed up with three other designers to open the Les Rennes de Noël pop-up store.
The Patrimoine brand offers organic cotton jeans and t-shirts, the florist Avril Flowertruck shows off her talent for dried bouquets, and Atelier Guillocher presents her belts and leather goods.
In 2021, we think in common.
Wood for children and adults.
Located near Fougères, the Jouécabois company specializes in ... Wooden toys.
The brand notably offers boxes of wooden pieces of the “Kapla” type, but also Finnish shuffleboard and bowling games.

In 2021, we'll be fine.
