# Personalized Gift Boxes Valleybrink Road's Custom Gift Boxes Are Expertly Curated by Hand By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-01-09 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/custom-gift-box References: [valleybrinkroad](http://valleybrinkroad.com/) & [valleybrinkroad](http://valleybrinkroad.com/2013/11/27/gift-boxes/) Rather than giving out one-size-fits-all [gift baskets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canadas-gift-baskets), Valleybrink Road gets back into gift-giving that's highly personal and thoughtful with its [custom gift boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corporate-gift-boxes). The bespoke gift boxes offered by Valleybrink Road, chef Barrett Prendergast’s catering business are assembled by hand and in the Los Angeles area, the boxes may even be delivered by hand. Each box is decorated and filled to meet a specific budget, need or occasion, often filled with fresh flower arrangements and a variety of [artisanal treats like jam, chocolate, caramel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goat-gift-box), coffee, olive oil, peanut brittle and the brand's own Valleybrink Road Organic Toffee. Since each wooden box is unique, consumers can pick their own size, starting with extra small boxes for $100 and large boxes worth up to $450.
