The 'E’s of Mindful Gifting with Madrona Gifts
Gift-giving is one of the great joys of life. The entire process - contemplating, choosing, and then sharing a gift - is rooted in mindful intention. But sometimes finding a gift you can feel good about buying, let alone sharing, is a daunting and time-consuming task. Gift boxes are a welcome solution to the dilemma of choice, and one that consumers have embraced wholeheartedly in recent years. But if you’re a conscious consumer, gift boxes can leave you feeling hollow for the massive toll they take on the environment in wasteful packaging and irresponsible shipping. All online shopping takes that toll, of course, but there’s something about the toll from a gift - meant to bestow love and joy - that’s particularly troubling.
That’s why Madrona GIfts is doing it differently. We aspire to be a source of feel-good gifts with products and practices that both delight and inspire. We define that mission in 3 nifty E’s.
Easy – We make it easy and fun with themed gift sets designed for simplicity of selection and fulfillment both. Our themes are reflective of Pacific Northwest values and inclusive of all.
Earth-friendly – E-commerce is a wasteful industry by design, so we distinguish ourselves with an earth-friendly approach. Our zero-waste-packaging and carbon-neutral shipping ensure that your gift reflects sustainable values and practices.
Elevating– This is the fundamental mission of Madrona Gifts, after all – elevating the art of both giving and receiving. Intentional gifts are values-based with merit beyond the items themselves. Our gift box items are unique in their local origin and sourced from small, purpose-driven businesses like ours, making them a joy to share.
