About Us
Boxed Expressions is a Women-Owned, Chicago based Gifting Suite, Providing Elevated Gifting, Culinary & Training Solutions to Corporate & Business Accounts.
Gifting has been around since the beginning of time and is still present today. We all start the day by waking up and receiving the gift of life to perhaps receiving a 'surprise gift' from a manager or a 'just because' lunch from a co-worker, etc...
Gifts feel great when they are genuine, least expected and thoughtful.
My career has greatly impacted the lives of many through my 15+ years of working in Culinary Arts & 10+ years as a Training Specialist & Manufacturing Supervisor in Food Service with a couple of the largest Confectionery Companies in the world.
The idea for this company came to mind when searching for a birthday gift for a co-worker. After spending almost 2 hours running from store to store, looking for the best Culinary gift; I then had an 'Awe Ha' moment. Buying just '1’ gift wasn't enough so I eventually left multiple stores with a total of 6 gifts, arranged them beautifully inside a black gift box, with festive crinkle paper, decorative adornments and satin ribbon. My friend was thrilled! I was able to create a Special Elevated Experience based on her favorite flavors of food..and it was arranged beautifully! She even invited me over dinner the following week...win,win for me:)
There were a few key take-away's from that experience:
- Gifts Nurture Relationships
- An Impactful Gift Highlights a person's true interests, love and likes
- Gifts tell a story without speaking a word
- Tangible Gifts are Placeholders & Remembered For Years
