The holidays are here, and your calendar is filling up with invitations from Friendsgiving feasts to cozy holiday gatherings. You've picked out your outfit and prepped your dish, but there's one small detail that makes a big impression: a gift of gratitude with a host gift.
In the rush of the season, it’s tempting to grab the first generic bottle of wine you see. But this year, let's make a more meaningful choice. When you bring a gift that supports a small, local business, you're giving two presents in one: a token of appreciation for your host, and a boost to your community.
At The Hug Box, we believe the best host gifts are a curated mix of comfort and delight. Forget the stress of searching multiple stores! We've hand-selected incredible items like artisan popcorn, gourmet chocolate, relaxing candles, soothing tea, delicious baked good mixes, and luxurious bath and body products – all ready to show your heartfelt thanks.
Whether you choose one of our ready-to-ship gift boxes or decide to build your own gift basket for a truly personal touch, we make it easy to be the most thoughtful guest at every party.

SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY. Why Shopping Small Business Saturday Matters. It's that time of year when the big box stores can overwhelm shoppers and they are able to give bigger discounts, while small mom & pop shops can't so much - but they give back to the community even more - and think of a world without small shops. Supporting small is a way to say thanks to your neighbor and friends. Saturday, November 29 - 10am - 5pm.
HOLIDAY SIP & SEE. Friday, November 21, Mainstreet Newnan, Georgia - 5-9pm. FREE EVENT.

The Hug Box Gift Boxes. Each time someone opens a Hug Box gift, they’re holding not just a gift box filled with goodies, but a story: of people who care, who believe in their craft, and who want to make a difference.
The month of October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Hug Box has been an advocate for healthy product gifting all along. It is one of the Hug Box's core values. One of the reasons the Hug Box was created was because a dear friend got breast cancer. I wanted to send her a nurturing gift. I couldn't find anything online that I thought was uplifting and healthy.. all natural. I decided to create my own gift basket and source locally with all natural products.
Our artisan gift boxes are designed to deliver more than just products. They deliver comfort, encouragement, and a gentle reminder to slow down. This season, our newest Hug Boxes and timeless favorites are here to help you or someone you care about embrace a reset with intention and love.
