 Welcome to our October 2020 newsletter! 

Fall is here! The days are warm, the nights are crisp & perfect for sleeping! I hope everyone is staying healthy and managing the best you can in these uncertain times.

Gifting is more popular than ever! We provide contact free delivery, extreme care and in house precautions during these challenging times and are now designing and accepting Christmas and holiday orders. We are already experiencing exceptionally high volumes for orders in upcoming season. While  currently have a sizeable inventory our suppliers are already experiencing some product shortages. Order early for best product availability. Stay tuned, shortly designs will be online, however we also work with your budget and can design accordingly.

Our suppliers have certainly created the most heartwarming containers, and other product for the upcoming season. This year has been filled with incredible turmoil and these products they are offering, I believe, will give some sort of comfort to all who receive. Soon designs will be online.

Flu season is here and with all what is going on we need to be vigilant. If you know someone who needs a pick me up, get well or just want to be comforted...young and old our new Cuddle Buddy's are perfect! These super soft animals heat up or can be put in the freezer for cold therapy. These can be a single gift or within a gift basket.

With everyone avoiding personal contact, gift baskets or care packages can be one of the favorite means to show appreciation to front line workers, loved ones in quarantine, and sympathy for the loss of a loved one. Babies are still being born, people are still moving into new homes, and Birthday's are still happening as well. The world has not stopped, why not make their day special!
