Making Giving Effortless

Whether you like to send gifts and cards for every occasion, only seek to mark the milestones, or simply believe that recognizing kindness is important, I created Presents Prose Politesse with you in mind. - To provide inspiration through creative ideas and to share practical tips, making giving effortless.  

“I created Presents Prose Politesse with you in mind.”

British Influence

I’m a Brit living in the States who’s passionate about finding just the right gift and sending personalized cards for all manner of occasions. While I’ve embraced the American culture, I’ve retained an Englishness at heart; I believe in paper correspondence, taking tea in the afternoon, and I eat with a knife and fork (at every meal). 

“I believe in… taking tea in the afternoon.”

American Assimilation

When I moved to the United States I became fascinated by the subtle cultural differences between the two nations and what was acceptable etiquette. It was during the process of assimilation that I came to the conclusion that being thoughtful is appropriate everywhere. I’m now an American citizen, with an American husband and family. However I’m still proudly British too. 

“Being thoughtful is appropriate everywhere.”

Creative Background

With a background working in a London buying office and a design education, I approach gift giving with creativity front of mind. With experience as a writer and educator I will share ideas and tips, so that you too can spread joy in an effortless manner.

“I will share… so you too can spread joy in an effortless manner.”

Fulfilling Life

Currently working in the philanthropic world, I truly believe that giving is the key to a fulfilling life. My hope is that Present Prose Politesse inspires you to act upon kind thoughts in a way that is both meaningful and creative - just without all the hassle!

“Giving is the key to a fulfilling life.”
