Champagne Holiday Gift Box
FWM: When did your love for creating gift baskets begin?
My career began in early childhood education, but my creative side was always there. I always made gift baskets and scrapbooks which I gave as gifts.
One time I made a gift basket for my sister. She asked me if I had thought of marketing them. At that moment I realized I wanted to pursue that path. I started to take courses and practiced what I had learned until I was ready and confident to start putting my work out there.
The rest is history.
FWM: How are you preparing for the holidays?
I have been gearing up for the holidays since the summer. I have been designing new gifts as well as reaching out to previous clients and doing presentations to attract new clients to show what The New York Gifting Company can do for them.
It is not too early to start thinking about your holiday gifting needs. I already have some orders for the holiday season.
FWM: Tell us about your luxury gift boxes.
Luxury is all about the products that you use as well as the presentation. It is so important how the items are arranged, and they all fit together in color and that they fit the theme.
The embellishments such as ribbons, logo and designs can make a gift look luxurious.
FWM: Can gifts be customized?
Most gifts can be customized for sure.
