Do you take the pictures yourself?
Yes we do unless others may pick up the camera (a big thank you to guest photographer Magda K.!). Art, style and design are deep loves and this blog facilitates delving into these passions along with working with others to create something new on a daily basis.
Where can I purchase "---- fill in the blank ----"?
Please look for links to the things featured/mentioned or something similar directly in their respective posts, I really try to link things for you to quickly order online &/or let you know the store/company they're from. For things that are vintage or no longer in stores, I love ebay! Our other go to shopping destination is Amazon.com which in many cases ships internationally and has great service. Sadly, a personal reply to emails requesting information already included in posts will likely not be possible.
Who created GaveThat.com and why / how did the idea come about?
Hello! I'm Marie Anakee Miczak, I founded GaveThat.com in 2008 as a quiet gesture—an understated way to honor the artists, makers, and strangers whose work once arrived at my door through the Eternal Network. What began as a simple act of gratitude became an ongoing exploration of the unseen conversations created by giving.
Fascinated by this, Gave That blossomed into a place devoted to discovering hidden treasures, lovingly taking the time to make handmade gifts and celebrating good friends along the way. A place between what is offered and what is received . In its simplest form Gave That is a place to document, create and share inspiration. It's also a love affair with design, the unique and delicious packaging.

Cultural anthropologist Mary Catherine Bateson once wrote:
“Every human society uses gift giving—and, of course, exchanging—to define and sustain relationships. When I give you a present, I’m making a statement about who I am, who you are… and what our relationship is between us.”
