My shop, The Gift Box, is a place where your purchases come with gift boxes or wrappings. I also designed and created these gift tags to go with the boxes. I designed a few different patterns. Reused paper bags. Tied raffia. Simple and easy.

Intriguing Sites: Storenvy
In Intriguing Sites, The Gift Box on December 8, 2009 at 8:59 amSome of you noticed I am using Storenvy for my store. And others mentioned you have never heard of Storenvy. Well, they are pretty new. So I’m featuring them in my Intriguing Sites this week.
For those of you with an online store and those looking to open an online store, you will want to consider Storenvy. Here’s why. It’s free! They don’t take a percentage of your sales. They use PayPal for their financial transactions and the PayPal fee is the only thing you pay to PayPal. No transaction fee or percentage fee to Storenvy. They don’t charge to post items in your store either.
What’s the catch? Why would they do it for free? Rather than making money through charging seller fees, they hope you will use them to print shirts. That’s their main business. Storenvy offers award-winning T-shirts and merchandise printing. Store owners are not required to use them to print shirts, but if you are in that business, they hope you will use them. That’s it.
Other benefits, you can do just about what you want with your store on Storenvy. It has fully customizable storefronts for you to design it the way you want it. They have a ton of amazing store features. And just like any other online store communities, it is a fun place to shop and support online small businesses.
And look at what I found last Saturday on their main page… Yup. One of the mustaches was being featured in their home page! Mr. Hugo is in the middle under ‘New & Interesting’.
The Gift Box & a Giveaway
In Giveaway, Products, The Gift Box on December 2, 2009 at 6:00 am**This giveaway is closed. Thanks to all who entered.**
I know, I announced a Simply Modern Mom store like months ago. And many of you have been asking about it. Well, it got held back by more pressing projects – like the Winter Days Giveaways going now, guest appearances on other blogs, Nathan finishing up his semester, house projects, so on and so forth. Then there’s the fact that I am one of those people who does a ton of research before making a commitment such as opening an online store. But it is finally here. Not completely done since I have other products to add that I have to finish up first. Nonetheless, it’s up and open as of today.
May I present to you… The Gift Box by Simply Modern Mom. And the best part is… At The Gift Box, every gift comes with a box. Or some kind of gift wrapping. That’s right. We eliminated troubles of gift wrapping by providing it at no additional cost.

To celebrate it’s grand opening, I am participating in Sew, Mama, Sew’s Giveaway Day going on today. It’s a day of giveaways and they have a list of all those participating at their blog. But the actual giveaway is on each person’s individual sites. So here’s mine! Yes, the Winter Days Giveaways is still going on but you get an additional giveaway today!
I’m giving away a great stocking stuffer… A set of 3 mustaches to ONE winner, you get to pick which styles you would like. This giveaway ends Sunday, Dec. 6 at 10 p.m. This one is only for those within the U.S.
To enter, all you have to do is give me an honest critique of The Gift Box – what you like, what you don’t like. This would require you to go to The Gift Box and check it out. No critiques? Then let me know which of my crafts (you can check out my MADE page to see them all) you would like to see in my store. That’s it. Good luck!
