How to Celebrate the Holidays and Year End with Your Business!

The holidays are just around the corner! And this year that’s ringing true more than ever with less than four weeks ‘til Christmas. If you just said “YIKES!” you’re not alone. But don’t sweat it. The Baudville elves are here to help!

Here are some of our suggestions to make your co-workers extra jolly while keeping your holidays stress-free.

1. Holiday gifts perfect for everyone on your list!
Our holiday gifts under $10 will make your recipients grin from ear to ear. Now 30% off and $5.57, our Character Pins tell a story of the appreciation you’ve had throughout the year. Shaped Notepad and Pen Gift Sets provide a practical gift for everyday use and the best part is they are only $5.95 each! However, my favorite gift under $10 is our latest edition of Twist Top Tumblers , our Glitter Twist Top Tumblers, only $9.95! These fun and useful gifts guarantee your gratitude sparkles.

2. Don’t know what you’re looking for? The Gift Finder does!
Baudville’s Gift Finder helps you discover the perfect gift for your occasion, recipient, or budget! Simply pick the occasion, theme, product category, or price and be amazed at the results. Still not sure what to give? Call the Baudville elves – they’re brimming with holiday suggestions! 1.800.728.0888.

3. Add an extra personal touch

Create a special moment for your recipient by adding your own personalized text to one of our popular gifts. We have hundreds of personalizable gifts that you can choose from so you get exactly what you want! A holiday favorite for many is our Spinner Ornaments. You can add a special message to the back of the ornament for an additional $5.00! Another favorite personalized gift is our Elegant Glass Clock where you can add three lines of personalization for free.

4. Ships Same-Day
If you place your order by 6 pm ET, Monday – Friday (except holidays) our in stock items ship the same day. Orders placed on Saturday and Sunday will be shipped the next business day. For many of our customers that means getting their order 2 days after they place it! Yes, we’re really that fast!

Adventures in Daily Recognition: Getting to Know the Baudville Team! Meet Sara!

Baudville is no ordinary place to work – we drop our executives into dunk tanks, pour our hearts into philanthropic ventures together, and wear jeans for a good cause. For these reasons, our team members are no plain Janes or even Stevens either – they're super stellar rock stars! Get to know them one-by-one and we're certain you'll agree.

What do you do here at Baudville?
I'm Sara Vreeland and I am an accounting clerk primarily specializing in accounts payables, but I have worn other hats at Baudville in the past.

What's your favorite part about your job?
I actually like the sorting, matching, and prioritizing of the paperwork (I know...I'm weird). I also like solving the mysteries and puzzles that come my way. Most people think that accounting is the same ole thing every day, but there are new puzzles and mysteries to solve and resolve every day.

What is something that none of your coworkers know about you?
I have no idea...I read... 2 to 3 books a week? Oh also, in the 1950's, my father work at the CIA (not as an agent or anything...he worked in the communications department in Washington D.C.).

Do you have any pets? Tells us a little bit about them.
Yes, we have 2 cats, Bill & Bennie. Bennie name was easy, but Bill's was named Q-Tip first (he's all white), but that just didn't seem right and we went through about 4 other names until we got to Bill...It seems to fit.

What's your favorite app?
Candy Crush...I've been sucked in, hook, line, & sinker!

What Smart Saying best represents you?
I Work With Super Heroes". I know we don't save lives or anything like that, but I am ALWAYS amazed at the lengths that the people I work with go to make sure our customers get the best shopping experience ever. From the people who make our computer system run its best, the product dreamers, designers and purchasers, the customer service representatives, the warehouse staff, and everyone in between, our customers are always number 1 and we'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way!

Princesses, Goblins, and Elmo all mean a Successful Halloween at the Ville!

We had a blast in our office this year for Halloween! Our day consisted of a costume contest, trick-or-treating, and sugar highs to last a lifetime.

We start off our day with a costume contest. Our in-house photographer, Tisha, goes around and photographs everyone who wants to participate. Then we print out the photographs of everyone and post them up in our lunch room for everyone to see the amazing costumes and vote for their favorite! Later in the afternoon, the winners are announced and receive a mystery gift card.

After all that excitement our day gets even better when our coworkers' kids come to the office and trick-or-treat at our desks.  This is my favorite part of the day! Not only is it really cool for the kids to see where their awesome Moms and Dads work, but they are extra excited for all the candy.

Adventures in Daily Recognition: Getting to Know the Baudville Team! Meet Cassie

Baudville is no ordinary place to work – we drop our executives into dunk tanks, pour our hearts into philanthropic ventures together, and wear jeans for a good cause. For these reasons, our team members are no plain Janes or even Stevens either – they're super stellar rock stars! Get to know them one-by-one and we're certain you'll agree.

I'm Cassie and I'm a Key Account Representative, responsible for taking care of our customers by building relationships and making sure they have an amazing experience!

What's your favorite part about your job?
My favorite part about my job are the volunteer opportunities I've had over the years, we've been able to take part in helping build a Habitat for Humanity home, a KaBoom playground, and most recently were able to take part in helping build the one of a kind sensory trail at the EQuest Center for Therapeutic Riding.

What is your favorite day here at the Ville?
Favorite day at Baudville is hands down the Year End Party!!! It's a GUARANTEED blast!

What was your favorite vacation or favorite vacation place?
One of the best vacations I've ever been on was when I went to Mexico. We stayed outside of Cancun with family, in the most beautiful house that had marble floors and a marble staircase, an on-suite in every room. It was gorgeous! We rode the city bus, and experienced life outside of the tourist district. We drove the coast of Puerto Vallarta in a bright green convertible 1970's Volkswagen beetle.

What's your favorite app?
Candy Crush...I've been sucked in, hook, line, & sinker!

What Smart Saying best represents you?
I couldn't find one that fit to a T (haha pun intended) so here it goes:

The Office Space Tee:
I'm going to need you to go ahead and...
RECOGNIZE someone! ...that'd be great!
