Get Well Soon Gift Baskets

Written by Shawn on August 24, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

work-from-home-gifts Back to school season during pandemic right before flu season kicks off is not a recipe for fun, that is for sure. But, we are here to help comfort anyone in your circle that needs it. We got you. But, maybe all of this mask-wearing will keep the flu at bay this season. We have noticed fewer colds and other viruses and stuff in our circles. Maybe this will be a thing from now on. I would love that! No more winter or summer colds, right?

But, that is not reality. We know a few of us will get colds or flu this coming fall and winter and we would love to help. (And, fortunately, most kids in our area are not actually going to school this semester. They are using ZOOM for their lessons.)

Our “Well Wishes” Get Well Soon Gift Basket

Gift boxes includes all kinds of things to cheer someone who’s under the weather including soup mix, crackers, tea, honey, almonds, cookies, and a giant chocolate krispy aspirin. The honey is local honey for Mike & Niki’s Honey which is collected from hives here in San Jose.

This is one of our oldies. It is a classic and best seller in this category. We can almost always get this one shipped out pretty quickly, too. Same day can be tough, but if you get the order in my 11 a.m. Pacific, we can sometimes get it right now.

$40 plus shipping and you can include some text for a hand-written note by us with your sentiment inside.

Cold and Flu Season Get Well Gift Basket

Cold-flu-gift-baskets Cold and Flu Basket pretty much says it all. $70 plus shipping

This thoughtful gift is for that special someone suffering from any nasal or respiratory ailment. Includes sipping broth in lidded mason mug, honey, tea, biscotti, and a candy aspirin.

And, for real relief, your sicky will love the locally made sinus relief shower tabs and Breathe Free chest rub. They are all-natural, small-batch relief at its best.

If you would like to personalize it, we can include a custom ribbon with the “patients” name or a loving message on the ribbon. (Small $5 upcharge.) We also have other goodies you can add to this or any of our baskets.

Get-Well-Baskets-Smiley-Face-Mug Large latte mug is filled with coffee (or specify tea or cocoa), cookies, nuts, candy, and smiley chocolate pop!

$25 plus shipping. This one makes a great gift for an entire department or team, too. Lots of ways to use this SMILEY gift. (Again, we can also put custom ribbon with logos or some sentiment you come up with.)

If you are local, you can always pick up your baskets at our workshop in San Jose on San Felipe Road, but you do need an appointment and request that you text us to confirm before you drive all the way out to pick up. You can always call or text me at 408-504-3703.

Cancer Patient Chemo Care Baskets

We even have an extra special gift basket for your friend or loved one who may be experiencing chemotherapy for their cancer.

We made it with them in mind with some goodies that may help them ease some of their nausea and other malaise from the stress and the chemical cocktail.

Know someone braving chemotherapy or cancer treatments? We hope not, but we want to try to help if we can bring them a touch of comfort.

They will surely appreciate your thoughtful gift of comfort-including a fun mug, chicken soup, mints, tea & honey, lotion, queasy drops, warm beanie or socks, adult coloring book, and much more. Customizable too! Magnet on the tin will vary. $150 with free shipping.

Again, we can also personalize the basket with a bow with their name on the ribbon or a loving sentiment from you. (We have a custom ribbon printer, so most any message is possible.)

If you want something more customized for your friend or loved one, call me or email me and we can create something specific and personal. We do specialize in custom gift baskets here in Sa Jose – they are our bread and butter. We have been making custom corporate gifts and custom gifts for consumers since 2004. My email is Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com or call me at 408-504-3703. I would love to brainstorm with you.

Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to get your creative juices flowing! You can also read all about what our past clients have to say about our gift baskets on YELP or Google, too.

I should also mention we do have a Pandemic Gift Basket – because it is just that kind of year!

Stay health. Mask up and we will all get through this together.

Employee Morale Gifts from All The Buzz Gifts

Written by Shawn on August 17, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Do your employees deserve a morale boost?

These are difficult times, for sure. And, everyone is spending so much time alone and away from their colleagues and the office.

Have you seen our Home Worker’s Survival Kit, yet? (And we have them in small, medium and large and 3 different price points.)

We have created lots of employee morale gifts over the last 16 years. The 88 baskets we made in this black leatherette with the big yellow bows were for an accounting firm. Aren’t they super cheerful?

You will love these gifts on our blog from March 2020. Lots of smiley faces to go around. More employee morale gifts here.

We have also created lots of new hire gifts for some local tech companies. We love working with our corporate clients on retirement gifts, new hire gift, thank you gifts, and work from home survival kit thank you gifts! We have fun creating with our clients and love bringing their own employees lots of glee and joy.

We created this for one of our corporate clients who wanted to boost the morale of their employees who have been working from home the past 5 months. All of the zoom meetings get to be so overwhelming and never getting to see your colleagues in person can be demoralizing. These are strange times and the world is a little bit upside down. So, one of our clients sent the Work from Home Survival Kit to boost their team’s morale.

This kit has snacks, yo-yo, caramel corn, and vitamin c energize boost! New times require new, thoughtful gifts. And, this one is fun, especially for those new to working at home. It includes coffee, snacks, immunity boosters, earplugs, fun activities like jump rope, yo-yo, silly putty, playing cards, and chocolate aspirins. Personalization is available. (We can personalize with vinyl lettering, custom ribbon and it is just a small upcharge.)

At All The Buzz, we specialize in custom corporate gifts. If you have any ideas you would like to talk through, give me a call at 408-504-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com and we can brainstorm and spitball and come up with something extra special for your department and company.

We have a super cool machine that allows us to put vinyl lettering on gifts and baskets. A really fun idea for company logos – especially on the metal baskets and ceramic frames.

In case you live locally here in San Jose, you are always welcome to come out to our workshop in San Jose (by appointment) and you can always save on shipping by coming and pick up your gifts at our workshop. (Just to text us ahead of time to make sure we are there.) We have been making gift baskets here in Silicon Valley for over 16 years, so we have a pretty robust “beehive” workshop on San Felipe Road.

Corporate Birthday Gifts for Your Employees

Boredom Buster Gift Basket

Written by Shawn on August 5, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

pandemic-gift-basket If your kids have been home all summer, you can probably relate to this gift basket we created. This quarantine is driving us all up a wall! I think we are all as bored as our kids are.

We are calling this the Boredom Buster Gift Basket and it is perfect for families or people who are quarantined and have played every game and put every puzzle together one too many times!

Sodas, munchies, Jelly Belly jelly beans, salt-water taffy, flavored popcorn, 5 Second Game, puzzle, Big Book of Family Games (travel-friendly book guarantees hours of hilarious, technology-free fun that requires nothing more than creative minds), rice krispy brick, toffee pretzels, and other goodies. Have you played the 5 Second Game? Here is more info about it: “The 5 Second Rule Uncensored Board Game comes with 150 question cards, a Twisted Timer, and the game rules pamphlet. The rules of the game are simple, spit out the answers to the question you are asked in five seconds, no matter what they are!” These games are a great way to get your family to all stop staring at their phone.

Definitely check out our Pandemic Survival Kit, too. They could both be perfect for a family road trip.

You can take this gift basket on your next family road trip, your next beach house, or Air BNB rental. It’s loaded with fun stuff for you and everyone in your group. It will keep you all very busy. And, it comes in a super cool trunk that you can use when you get back home and store your games in for more fun later.

Custom Gift Baskets in San Jose

We can also customize these for your family or for your company, too. We can add vinyl lettering to customize it with your family name or company logo. We can also add custom ribbon and add goodies to personalize this boredom buster for your family or your department.

If I can help you with a custom gift for your family or for your company, call me at 408-506-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com and we can brainstorm some great ideas for you.

Be sure to also check us out on Facebook or Instagram to see all kinds of fun ideas we create.

You can save on shipping by picking, you can always schedule a pick-up at our workshop in San Jose. Just please be sure to schedule it ahead of time to make sure we were there, please. 408-506-3703 is a good number to text me at.

Pandemic Survival Kit

Written by Shawn on July 30, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

pandemic-survival-kit Honestly, I never would have imagined I would ever make a gift basket with a roll of toilet paper, but it is 2020 and it had to be done! This was made more tongue in cheek, but we have sold some and we have received a lot of requests for them, so here we are.

We are calling it our Global Pandemic Survival Kit and it is $50. Buy here.

Need a large quantity of these survival kits? Call me. We can make these custom and we can add on other products for you, too. Let me list here what this one includes:

a germ key
face mask
goggles
gloves
Lysol,
hand sanitizer
immune-boosting lollipop
toilet paper
stress ball
chocolate aspirins
and a 6-foot measuring tape

We specialize in custom gift baskets and corporate gifting, so if you need a bunch of these for teachers going back to their classrooms for their distance teaching, or your department could use a little morale boost, let me help. Call me at 408-504-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com.

This could also make a great gift for someone who is moving back into their dorm this Fall or someone moving into their new home or new apartment. Who knows. You all are so creative, I am sure you will think of lots of fun ideas for this fun gift.

Gifts for Essential Staff and Frontline Workers

We also have some frontline gifts and comfort gifts for nurses, doctors, and hospital workers, here. We are all so grateful to all of the people who are very bravely working in our hospitals, clinics, grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and schools. We have something for everyone at All The Buzz Gifts.

Custom Gift Baskets and Corporate Gifting

In case you did not know it, we can do some very fun personalization and customization of any of our gift baskets. We can add vinyl lettering to items or to boxes. We can create a custom ribbon with the recipient’s name or our company logo, too. We can always add items like our rice Krispy treats, toffees, chocolates, custom mugs, and water bottles, so be sure to reach out. The custom ribbon starts at $5 and the other custom ideas go up from there.

If you need a large quantity of any of our products, I am happy to create a custom quote. And, I love getting on a call with my clients to brainstorm fun custom ideas for your large order. I look forward to working with you soon!

(We are in San Jose and you can always save on shipping and come and pick up your gifts at our beehive workshop. But, be sure to make an appointment so we can be sure that we are there when you want to pick up our gift.)

How About a Zoom Date? New Zoom Happy Hour Ideas

Written by Shawn on July 17, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

What if you ordered a Mini Happy Hour or a Mini Vino Hour for each of you and then set up your zoom date and enjoy these two goodies together.

New Zoom Date Ideas

Are your courting someone special and looking for a fun way to have a fun and creative date via Zoom or Facetime? We have this fun idea that you send your date something like our Mini Happy Hour (with the lime bow) and the Mini Vino Hour (beige bow below) and you both get your mocktail or cocktail ready and open the rest of the gift together.

That sounds fun, right?

Corporate Birthday Gifts for Your Employees

Written by Shawn on July 12, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

We do a lot of corporate gifting and one of our favorite programs is when our clients want us to ship their employees’ birthday presents. We also do Birthday or Anniversary Gifts for Your Employees.

Since 2004 we have had all kinds of fun requests! Some companies choose a theme for the entire year. Other companies send a more personalized gift for their employee to arrive at the employee’s home the week of the employee’s birthday.

We also have a New Hire/Onboarding Gift Program.

Birthday Basket Program for Employers

We even have some that do one big huge birthday MONTH gift basket to the entire company for all of that month’s birthday celebrants. When are only doing the “12 per year” for a corporate client, we end up going with a theme for each month. (With HR’s approval, of course.)

Most of our corporate customers, send us a spreadsheet at the beginning of the year so we can do some planning and forecasting. Then the HR or other department follows up with us at the beginning of each month to confirm the recipient’s name and current address.

Then They Leave the Rest Up To Us!

Once the company gives us the budget for the basket, we get started. Of course, we always have to remember the shipping charges. Most of our baskets ship for about $16 per boxed-up gift basket. We like to use USPS for home deliveries when we can. Occasionally it is more affordable to use UPS. We do ship all over the U.S. and the Bay Area, of course. If the person’s home address is within 10 miles of our beehive/workshop on San Felipe Road in San Jose, we can also do a personal delivery.

We can also do one or two specific baskets for all of the recipients. Typically, that requires some consulting and a short phone or Zoom meeting at the beginning of the new year to get the “standard” basket designed and then we create that basket for that company each time one of their employees has a birthday. Some companies prefer that their employees all get the same gift all year long so no one feels slighted or favored. As you can probably tell, we can work your own company’s birthday program any way it works for your business. We are here to make the task easy and convenient for your company.

We are Custom Corporate Gift Basket Experts at All The Buzz!

We are custom corporate gift basket experts and would be happy to personalize and customize any kind of gift basket for any of your corporate programs. Just give me a call at 408-509-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com and we can start the process of developing something special for you. We will make you look very smart and efficient! We pride ourselves on our quality and on our reliability. We have great reviews on YELP and GOOGLE if you would like to hear what our past clients have to say about us.

And, here are some other examples of gifts we can make for any occasion, including birthday gifts.

3 Ways To Thank and Comfort Essential Workers

Gifts for Nurses and Hospital Staff | A New Heart and a New Liver

Written by Shawn on July 4, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Two of our clients bought gifts for the team that helped their family members with a new heart and a new liver!

Both of these fabulous ladies send thank you gifts to the team of people that helped their respective partners.

Thank You to the team that helped her boyfriend get a brand new heart and another one bought some gifts for the team that helped her husband with his liver transplant! Isn’t that amazing? I still cannot even imagine what getting a heart transplant is like – for that matter – I cannot imagine any kind of organ transplant. So complicated.

Happy Independence Day 2020 | Gift Baskets in San Jose

Written by Shawn on July 3, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

We made a few special 4th of July gifts this year for you and we wish you a very Happy 4th of July! If we can ever help you make a basket for your special occasion, a special birthday or a custom gift for your corporate event, convention, or for morale boosts for your employees, reach out. My work cell is 408-504-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com. We love to do custom gift baskets for your special projects.

Birthday Gifts: Unique Birthday Present Ideas

Written by Shawn on June 26, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Birthday-gifts-for-friends Did you know there are more birthdays in September than any other month? Fascinating article about September birthdays from Business Insider:

More babies are born in early September because couples have an easier time conceiving around Christmas time. A recent study found that the winter season holds biological perks for pregnancy. The tendency to “hook up” during the holidays also likely explains the peak in wintertime conceptions.

We have some great ideas for your friends and family.

Coffee or Tea Lover in Your Friends Group? We have this great leatherette gift basket filled with honey, coffee, tea, pretzels, chocolate spoons, granola, pocket latte, and other goodies. Buy Here : $90
Is one of your friends focused on their health? How about our Healthy Options gift basket for $90? Market basket is filled with healthier treat options including salmon, crisps, tapenade, yogurt pretzels, veggie chips, fruit chips, and a variety of nuts, seed & nut bars. Personalize plaque or ribbon for a small charge. More info to buy it here. Buy Here : $90
Is your bestie or sister about to turn 50 or 60 or having some other kind of special birthday? What if you emailed all of her favorite people and asked them for a photo and ask them to send it to you so you can make a collage and set up a Zoom of a Facebook Live Surprise Party for their special birthday?
Stop by the liquor store (they are still essential, after all) and buy a great bottle of tequila, some limes, salt, and some scratchers and drop it off on your besties porch. Maybe they will share the winnings with you!
What is your friend’s favorite color? We can customize a basket together for you based on their favorite color, their favorite sports team, or their favorite hobby. We have a way to make a custom ribbon and have hundreds of colors. ($5 fee.) We can also personalize a gift like this one we did for a new Dad with his baby’s name on it with a vinyl cling. Check out the basket for the Dad of baby “Wyatt.” ($10 fee).

Custom-gift-basket-san-jose

6. You can always make a hand-made custom gift certificate for your friend or family member. It is very difficult to get your car washed and your yard mowed during this Shelper In Place. It is also tricky to get your house cleaned – and what a great gift. You can offer to cook a meal or clean the cupboard for a friend as a very personalized homemade gift card. Of course, wear your masks and stay 6 to 10′ away from your friends so everyone stays healthy.

7. Bake your special person a homemade cake, cookies, or a lasagna! Everyone loves home-cooked goodies.
