Who the owl are you?

My name's Amy, and I love finding just the right gifts for people.

I've always enjoyed hunting down hidden treasures in junk shops and craft fairs. A few years back I started putting the lovely things I found together into little parcels for friends and family, matching the contents of each one to their style and personality. They were such a hit that they asked me to make more to give to their own friends... and so Gift Owl was born.

We hunt down lovely gifts, so you don't have to.

What other people are saying about us

'Waitrose Weekend' (the in store newspaper of Britain's favourite supermarket) featured us at the top of a list of gift buying websites they loved. The feeling's mutual, as we also adore their chocolate ice cream(!)

"Get Personal. Give someone a Gift Owl Card instead of a present - they fill in a fun questionnaire then receive a surprise package that suits their style and interests."

"What is it about brown paper parcels tied up with string being so lovely ...? Excellent!"

"What do you get the person who has everything? A Gift Owl card! I was really stuck about what to get my friend for her birthday, but Gift Owl came to the rescue. The card itself was really cute and looked fun to fill in, and a couple of weeks later she was sent the most lovely parcel of goodies. Amazing!"

"My brother received the gift-owl card and was delighted and intrigued!"

"Thank you so much for the well thought out gifts sent to my son for his birthday. He was thrilled with the contents, especially the football program from the day he was born! The sweets were his favourite and disappeared very quickly."

"I loved the package. It was exciting to receive. The anticipation adds a lot to the experience."

"Filling out the card with my friend was a lot of fun and the gifts I received were perfect and really me! I was very impressed! Can't wait to buy it for one of my friends!"

"Always difficult to find a gift for my brother so the Gift Owl idea made my life easy."

"A fantastic, unique, surprising present. Made my life a lot easier but still showed I had thought about the recipient. She loved it and thought filling in the form was fun and amusing. Thank you for your personal service."

Customer Compliments

'Springwise' scans the globe for promising business ideas and concepts, so we were delighted when they featured us:

"Gift-giving site hand-picks items tailored to the recipient"

"Creative gift-giving has remained a perennial challenge through the years, inspiring more than a few services designed to make it easier ... Gift Owl is a UK venture that aims to take the pain out of finding the perfect gifts."

We were featured in 'The Thinkery', a magazine for creative entrepreneurs, and I was flattered to be referred to as the 'Gift Owl mastermind'...

"Helping you run rings round Santa"

"Gift Owl takes over the hard work of finding your recipient the perfect assortment of presents"
