Hi, my name is Lauren.
I am the heart and the name behind Refined Gifting and Refined Heart Living. I want to let you know how grateful I am that you are here! Please take some time to read through and get to know the lady behind the business as I share a little bit more about myself.
About Refined Gifting
Refined Gifting started as a dream in the fall of 2017 after prompting from God and friends in our community. The idea was tabled for nearly a year until doors opened to start this part of my business in the fall of 2018. Refined Gifting is a custom gifting company, run from the workshop and office in my home in Lima, OH. We saw an opportunity to provide a service and invest in our community by offering and creating unique, refined gifts to help celebrate the people and milestones for those that matter most. We do gifts for special events, holidays, milestone occasions, thank you gifts, raffle gifts, basket arranging and custom corporate or business gifts.
After working in the greeting card industry for six years and becoming an independent sales representative in the specialty gift industry the last two years, this extension of my business has felt like the perfect addition. It help fuels my creative passions, allows me to connect with people, and allows me love and serve my customers and end recipients through thoughtfully curated gifts. It’s all in the simply curated details, the art of gifting made easy.
