A few months later, in the Mayor's office on business, Joanne noticed that the gift sat on a table in the mayor's office, still unwrapped. The mayor confessed that she couldn't bring herself to destroy the wrapping paper. It was then that Joanne had her first insight into a market for gift boxes.
Along with two friends, she went into the business of designing and wrapping the boxes which could be used as a gift in themselves or used to cover another gift nestled inside. These busy ladies spend their spare moments surrounded by flowers, boxes, feathers, and other decorative items to make their boxes some of the most stunning you will find. The boxes come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials.
There are hat boxes, wine carriers, graduation-themed boxes, custom-ordered boxes and anything else that you might imagine.
It's A Wrap! got it's name from Hattie Bryant herself. The three friends have high standards for their gift boxes. First, they vow that each gift box is a gift in and of itself. Second, each gift box will be designed so as to never be thrown away. It will be used for storage, decor, or recycled. And, thirdly, each gift box will leave a lasting impression of the giver. As their signature, the owners put a feature somewhere on each box.
