Frida Kahlo’s story has resonated with so many people and fans have created art and giftware to keep her memory alive.
Etsy
Etsy has a great range of Frida Kahlo gift ideas. I’m lusting after the upcycled denim jacket with a colourful back panel and custom applique. You’ll also find earrings, prints and mugs.

Jones and Co
Jones and Co stock a range of fun modem ceramic homeware including vases and planters. The face collection includes famous people like Frida Kahlo and Prince. The Mamasita Frida planter would look adorable with a generous bunch of native flowers. Previous fun faces included Iris Apfel, Salvador Dali and Elton John. You’ll find items inspired by Cher, Matisse and more.
Love Star Loves
Love Star Loves specializes in handmade vases with worldwide shipping. The hearts collection is their bestseller range and comes in neon pink, yellow and clear to let the flowers shine. They also have an iconic series that is inspired by “women who aren’t afraid to be themselves. Women who are forever pushing themselves and breaking down boundaries. Women who empower others. Women who have serious spunk, and an utterly unapologetic attitude”. These vases have included Dolly Parton, Frida, Iris Apfel, Beyonce and more. Highly collectable, these often sell out.
My Hawaiian Shirts
If you need a custom Hawaiian shirt for your next family reunion, pub crawl or party, then My Hawaiian Shirts is the place to go. You can upload an image of yourself, your pet or your favourite celebrity. There are shirts with patterns featuring flamingos, geometric, fruit, coconut trees, leaves, flowers and animals. Then select the fabric and size and you’ll receive your one-of-a-kind shirt in the post.
Peter’s of Kensington
Peter’s of Kensington has old-school Frida lunch boxes, shot glasses, shopper bags, puzzles and more gift ideas. I buy most of my kitchenware from this comprehensive online shop.
