Something Splendid Gift Box Review
I was tasked to help find company holiday gifts at my full-time position with a certain budget this year. I went to search curated gift boxes and came across several sites with corporate gifting options. I submitted a form on two of the sites I liked best, based on selection of products and presentation. Something Splendid responded promptly and thus began my journey with this newly discovered company.
Something Splendid was founded by three women, based in Indianapolis, and is a curated gift boxing company for all kinds of recipients and occasions. You have the option of picking an already curated box, building your own, or using their services to help find the right products, even with a budget.
The representative I was speaking with was one of the founders. It was nice to see how quick and personal the response was. She sent over a digital catalog specifically for corporate gifting. This was a great option for me to narrow down choices for our company gift. She even offered new item suggestions that were comparable to my original picks, but at a lower price so I could stay within my budget. They also work with you if you need more corporate branding like designed tags with logos or package stuffing and ribbon in company colors. Our company ended up needing to go a different route but I remembered this positive experience when I needed to find gifts personally.
So, when I went to find gifts for my bosses and for friends, I went back to the site and decided to curate my own boxes straight from their “build your own” feature. What had drawn me back to this site over the many other curated gift boxing sites was first, the wide and very unique items (I hadn’t seen many of these on other sites!). Second, the ability to curate your own gift without having to speak to a rep, since I didn’t need corporate customization anymore (you will need to contact them for this, though they are fast and easy to work with!).
The site is incredibly easy to navigate and the “build your own” section made it simple and speedy to put together these gifts. I wasn’t sure where to start when creating both kinds of boxes. Luckily, the site had a dropdown filter of finding items for specific interests like birthdays, wedding, baby, home, pamper, guys, treats and seasonal, etc. Using these filters, I was able to quickly find great items that both groups would love, thinking of their personal tastes as I selected.
The items found on Something Splendid are curated with care. Each one is unique with high-quality, some chosen from local shops!
On top of easy gift ideas based off their intuitive site, the company also offers a selection of greeting cards to use, depending on the occasion. Each card is tastefully designed and the message you provide is handwritten! This touch makes the gift more personal and fun to receive.
I have had a great experience overall with Something Splendid, whether I talked with their concierge service or curated my own gift boxes. I’ll continue to use this small business for many gifting needs ahead!
