Baby Gift Baskets for a Lasting Memory
Sage’s Pink Roadster
Yesterday we put a personalized license plate on this sporty pink peddle car to bid welcome to a newborn girl whose name is Sage.
I can just imagine her in a couple of years riding around her house in her own car with her name on it.
Will her parents get her some pink framed sunglasses, too?
Maybe the teddy bear will sit on the seat beside her.
Radio Flyer Bundle of Joy
Something I like about my job is that we get to make people happy. We get to let them know that they are important or that someone holds them dear. The baby gift baskets are especially fun.
I doubt that they will ever remember that the gift came from Fancifull. But I’ll bet the parents will remember who sent the gift to them. Even more so when, years from now, they see their child playing with the wagon, car or some other element that came from one of our gift baskets.
“Good place to work,” I thought as I popped in the last rivet on the license plate. We send messages of joy.

Fancifull and the Natural Products Expo
At Fancifull we’ve long been advocates of natural and organic food. They taste better and are better for you and the planet. Why wouldn’t we want to sell that? It is a matter of following our passion – after 24 years of running Fancifull we are actually more excited than ever about the direction we are going. We get to support the smaller artisan producers and introduce our clients to a world of good. Delicious isn’t it?
Trade shows help us locate sources for good food – we get to sample it and often get to talk to the producers themselves. The Natural Products Show West, which takes place this weekend in Anaheim, has become a very important resource for Fancifull. I remember when this show started. It was tiny. I think it took up only a few of the banquet halls at the Disneyland Hotel, but I found some interesting things. Smaller shows often are more affordable for the smaller businesses and start ups, which is why I attend them. A great opportunity to discover something new. The show has since grown considerably and is now busting at the seams, taking up the whole Anaheim Convention Center.
You can imagine our delight when we got a call from Danielle at New Hope Media, the company that puts on the Natural Products Expo. She needed over thirty gift baskets for people associated with the show. She saw our website and realized we carry many products from the shows exhibitors which of course made us the perfect company to use.
It was particularly validating because we’ve been working on our Healthy Gourmet and other special diet baskets so anyone can enjoy them, no matter the discipline they follow.
Right now, our van is full of gourmet gift baskets heading to Anaheim to delight attendees as they enter their hotel rooms. They’ll be munching on organic Falafel Chips, Bean Dip, Nuts, Fresh Fruit, Red Wine, Dark Chocolate – most of it is organic, gluten free, vegan and all of it is absolutely delicious.
I will be heading down there in a few days to sample foods, query vendors, and locate new goodies for Fancifull. The Natural Products show isn’t just about food. I have found organic baby clothes for our Baby Gift Baskets as well as all natural bath items for our Pamper and Spa Baskets. It is an exciting time in this industry right now. More people are joining the party when it comes to handcrafted food and organic products – and let’s face it, the more the merrier!

Baby Gift Baskets With Style
People love babies. For one thing they are so darned cute: those gummy smiles, cute little fingers, frog legs, their smell… oh I could go on and on. I think this is a universal feeling
I notice when people come into our shop they are enamored with our baby section. They ooh and ahh while sifting through miniature hats, booties, shirts, as well as all the stuffed animals and such we have stocked here at Fancifull.
Celebrating a birth is to celebrate life. I guess that is why people love to send baby gift baskets. You get to gather this collection of gifts (you don’t have to limit yourself to just one!), and put them together in a beautiful arrangement that creates a big impact.
Being a mom myself I endeavor to find useful items. I mean the giant baby bottle may be funny at a shower, but what does the mom do with it after the baby is born?
But that doesn’t mean we are boring. Far from it. The lullabye cds we include in our baby gift baskets are beloved by moms and babies. Blankets, clothing, and even pampering gifts for mom can fill out a basket.
But why settle for a basket?
Our most popular baby gift basket, whether a boy or a girl, is not in a basket at all but a radio flyer wagon! We love containers that have uses after they contents have been emptied. Fancifull designs include many a gift in storage boxes, totes, trunks, trays, and other attractive containers. Heaven forbid we should ever limit ourselves!
