WE ARE LED BY A DESIRE
FOR CONNECTION
It was late 2018, I was feeling disconnected after a struggle with depression and a difficult move from the city to the burbs. In a total sliding door moment, my sister sent me a picture of a gift basket she had purchased for a client and in that moment I knew what I was being called to do.
I could never have imagined just how significant my mission would become. In a time when we are all disconnected from the people and places that uplift us, the celebrations that make our life most rich, from:us provides an opportunity to connect in a meaningful and impactful way.
WE SOURCE THOUGHTFULLY
FROM CANADIAN ARTISANS
Starting with the gorgeous WRAPPR furoshiki wrap or WOOD SHOP CO-OP box that encloses your gift to the curated items you select, you know that you are making (multiple) someone's day when you create a gift from:us.
WE SUPPORT THE WORK
OF LOCAL MAKERS
We’re old-school. We believe in investing in quality goods that will become a cherished part of your everyday rituals.
The artisans and small businesses that create the pieces in our collection are dedicated to preserving the knowledge and skills that we have traded for convenience.
If we can understand how the objects that colour our lives are crafted, if we can get to know the talented people that create them, why wouldn’t we? Lucky for us, we are surrounded by a phenomenal community of Canadian artisans who pursue their craft with a passion, which is why limiting our selection is genuinely one of the most difficult aspects of this business.
2% FOR OUR COMMUNITY
Each year a portion of our sales is donated to organizations that support the needs of vulnerable members of our community.
READY TO GO BOXES
A collection of boxes curated with specific kind of folk in mind. We curate each item thoughtfully from our favorite vendors and combine them into the perfect gift for the foodies, the eco lovers, the home detoxers and everyone else in your life you might want to give a little joy to.
BUILD YOUR OWN
Not everyone fits tidily into a single box, in fact, most people don't. For the people in your life who are a bit more a mixed bag, or for those who are multi-hyphenated passionates, building a custom box might be best.
WE'D LOVE TO HELP
Not entierly sure where to start with your gift? We'd love to help.
We restore the joy of gifting, for both the giver and the giftee, by making gifting personal and creating a thoughtfully curated box inspired by the person themselves.
