Secret Santa is set to be one of our most enduring gift exchange traditions, though it’s a fairly new one here in the U.S. Most credit the latest incarnation of the anonymous gift swap to 20th century philanthropist Larry Dean Stewart, who started distributing $100 to people in the Kansas City streets and founded the Society of Secret Santas. But the swap has its roots in an old Scandinavian Christmas custom and appears in German folklore as well.
It’s enjoyed under different names throughout the West and spawned countless variations here, including online Secret Santa, Thieving Santa, Casino Santa, Conspiracy Santa… We could go on, but our main point here at Currans Flowers is, you’re going to need a good gift for it.
Luckily, we’re in the business of helping people find that perfect gift, one that will inspire, move, comfort or bring joy to the recipient. And it’s joy with think you’ll want to offer your Secret Santa target. If so, look no further than ourĀ Red Themed Boxwood Tree.
This little beauty doesn’t need to be wrapped; simply place it next to the big Christmas tree on swap day or on the desk of your lucky recipient. No matter how you group does the big Secret Santa reveal, we feel certain that anyone would love to get this fully trimmed mini tree, a unique counterpoint to the bottles of wine or gift cards. It’s hard to know what to get for people we’ve been matched with sometimes; a gift like this takes a lot of the guesswork involved in finding an item that feels special.
As always, we at Currans Flowers will go that extra mile to make sure you’re the one that dazzles at Secret Santa this year.
