Our Presents are Wrapped with Love and Care . . . and Creative Hands

Customers love our gift wrapping - boxes carefully packed and wrapped with colorful, crinkled paper band and then topped with a fluff of colors and natural raffia. It's a colorful "party" on the box. Some customers declare they would be disappointed if there wasn't one of our wrapped boxes under the tree each year.

Truth be told, we spend way too much time making the bows and preparing the paper bands. But that's how we do things at World's Window. We create a colorful celebration in our displays throughout our store, so, of course, our gifts must look the same!

Take A Stand against domestic violence by sharing warmth with women and children in shelter at Rose Brooks Center

As the weather gets cooler, perhaps with some frost on the ground, we start pulling out sweaters and jackets and coats to keep us warm throughout the winter. For many, home is a place of love, warmth and comfort. But for millions of women and children, home is any but that. Every 9 seconds, a woman in the U.S. is beaten or assaulted by a current or ex-significant other.

It Was a Fab 50's Flipping Favorites - and YOU Made It Possible!
