Why hello friends, fancy meeting you here. Remember when I promised to share some really easy auto-pilot curated gifting ideas? Well the time is now! Aptly named Curate Chicago is perfect for this kind of gifting. I had the immense privilege of designing the website for Curate founder Christina earlier this year and throughout the whole process I was ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the gift photos she was uploading. Major gift envy right there.
The Annabelle
Christina Oropeza and her Husband Marco are the powerhouse couple behind Curate. This amazing lady was a buyer for Bloomingdales and Paper Source before striking out on her own to build Curate from the ground up. I LOVE the products that she chooses - they’re high quality, high-end products that are total eye candy to look at. At one point she walked me through her inventory and felt like a kid in a toy store on Christmas. And wait until you see the packaging guys - WOW.
These would be great for those super special folks in your life, and Christina’s just unveiled their new Build A Box feature which allows you to control the products and the price of the box.
The Julia
I love supporting businesses that I know and can get behind and Curate is certainly one of them. That said if you’re looking for even more options you can check out Box Fox, which is a curated gifting company which trends towards smaller paper and food items.
Tomorrow tune in for a fun wedding DIY!
