It started with a simple idea
Chris Bajda founded Groovy Guy Gifts in 2013 and has spent more than 15 years finding and designing personalized gifts that people keep. He still walks the NY NOW trade show in New York City every year looking for what belongs in the shop next.
“A gift means more when it is made for one person and no one else.”
How your gift gets made
Four steps between the moment you order and the moment it lands on his doorstep.
1
You tell us his story
His name, a date, a message, an inside joke. You type it on the product page and personalization is always free.
2
We set the design
Your text is placed in the exact font and layout you see on the product photos, sized and fitted to the piece you picked.
3
We make it to order
Laser engraving, machine embroidery, and printing happen in our own Monroe, Connecticut shop. Your gift is made when you order it, not pulled off a shelf.
4
We check it and ship it
A real person looks over the finished piece before it is packed. Most orders ship in 1 to 2 business days.
The materials we work in
Different materials take a name differently. These are the four we shape most, with a favorite example of each.
Glass and crystal
Decanters and glasses, deep-etched so his name catches the light every time he pours.
See an example
Wood
Keepsake boxes and boards, engraved clean into the grain so the message lasts as long as the wood does.
See an example
Steel
Knives and tools, marked with a name and date that will not rub off, because they are cut in, not printed on.
See an example
Canvas and thread
Duffles and bags, monogrammed by machine embroidery, stitch by stitch, in the thread color that suits him.
