Did you know the idea for Smiling Tree Gifts was actually born from a client who, year after year, would order custom ornaments for her church's holiday gathering?

Over time, we decided to expand upon the idea of an all wooden corporate gift line that targets corporations, businesses, and, of course, churches and other religious organizations. 

With the ever evolving work landscape, the lines between our personal and professional lives have blurred more than ever before. And as we continue to adapt to the new normal of remote work, it becomes increasingly important to show appreciation for those employees who continue to work diligently, even from the comfort of their homes.

"Two months to flatten the curve..." 

Remember this phrase? 

And now, nearly two years later, much of our work lives still remain changed, adapted and, well, remote. But that doesn't mean that employees far and wide don't deserve just as much appreciate and, honestly, one could argue they deserve MORE!

Smiling Tree Gifts is known around town as the "corporate block people" – and I say we've earned that title! We pride ourselves in our wide range of custom, corporate blocks that can *literally* cater to any event, award, anniversary or occasion. 

We get it. There are tons of options for corporate gifting right at your fingertips. So why pick us? What makes us stand out? 

Well let me tell you - here's four reasons why, frankly we're better than everyone else, and you should buy from Smiling Tree Gifts.
