Getting the timing right

Order personalized and made-to-order gifts at least two weeks ahead, and check delivery dates before you buy. For experiences, put a date or a short list of options in the card so the gift feels ready to use. If you are late, a digital gift card, a subscription or a booked experience can be given on the day with a printed note. Always include a gift receipt for anything with a size or color.
