Why Plan Ahead?
As a small team producing thoughtful, custom gifts from our home base in Maine, advance planning helps us give each order the attention it deserves. It also ensures our small-batch maker partners have adequate notice for any custom products.
Take our handcrafted ceramics for example—each mug and bowl is wheel-thrown by hand at studios like Roseline Pottery and Random Pottery in Maine. Similarly, seasonal products like our Pomes for the People are harvested-to-order. When you plan ahead, you're not just securing your spot in our production schedule—you're allowing these artisans the time they need to create something truly special.
Most importantly, it takes the stress out of holiday gifting so you can focus on what matters most—showing appreciation for the people who make your work meaningful. Get in touchtoday.
