3 Fun Ways to Give a Gift Card

12/21/2018

0 Comments

 
​What can you say about gift cards? 🤔
On one hand; they’re an easy gift that lets the recipient pick what they like 😀
On the other hand; they don’t usually make for an exciting or memorable gift 😞
To help spice up those stocking stuffers 🎄 the ECB is here to let you know…

Number 1: Artisan Greeting Cards, by Mellow Works

Picture
Each card is individually made, covered in folded paper designs.
Unlike a mass-produced greeting card that just gets thrown out,
These are keepsakes to be cherished for years to come 🧓👴

Number 2: Zipper Pouch, by Hipster & Co

Picture
You take your gift 🎁 and you put it inside another gift 🎁🎁
These vegan leather and lace pouches can hold the card now...
And hold loose change and makeup later 💄

Number 3: Sock by Sock'It Accessories

Picture
You know the old joke about getting socks for Christmas 🧦 
But these socks you will love to get, all made with unique fabrics and style. 💃
