Where Bluebirds Fly
The Original UK Build Your Own Gift Box Company!
Welcome to Where Bluebirds Fly, your friendly, go-to destination for personalised care packages, thoughtful gifts, and beautifully curated presents for all occasions.
We're a small, family-run gift shop based in the heart of the picturesque city of York, UK. Since launching in 2014, our mission has been simple: to make it easier (and more enjoyable) to send meaningful, personal gifts that really show you care.
We saw how tricky it was to find something truly thoughtful online – so we set out to change that. Unlike standard gift hampers filled with generic items, our unique platform lets you handpick every item that goes into your box. Whether it's sweet treats, pampering products or special keepsakes, you can create a one-of-a-kind gift that’s just right for the person you're buying for. Thoughtful, personal, and sent straight to their door.
Our Story
- 2014 – Where Bluebirds Fly was born at a kitchen table, fuelled by a love of gifting and a desire to do things differently. We started with handmade crafts and gift boxes, selling locally and online. Back then, there were no options for people to build their own hampers online – which gave us the spark to create something better.
- 2017 – We proudly presented our concept to The King’s Trust, who backed us as we teamed up with web developers to create the UK’s first ever online gift box builder. This tool let customers design fully custom gifts – something completely new to the UK gifting market. We were the first to offer this personalised experience, and we're still proud to lead the way.
- Awards & Recognition – Over the years, our work has been recognised by inspiring entrepreneurs like Theo Paphitis and Jacqueline Gold. Their support and awards mean the world to us, and remind us why we do what we do.
- Today – We continue to offer a wide range of personalised gift boxes – from self-care packages to team gifts – all beautifully packed and sent with care. We also love supporting small UK makers and fair trade suppliers, helping to share their amazing products with customers across the country.

Why 'Where Bluebirds Fly'?
When we first started out as a small craft business, we used to include a tiny bluebird in the design of everything we made — a little symbol of happiness, hope, and care. It became something of a signature for us, and when it came time to name the business, Where Bluebirds Fly just felt right.
Bluebirds are often seen as a sign of joy and thoughtful connection — which fits perfectly with what we do now. Whether it’s a birthday gift, a thank-you, or just a little something to brighten someone’s day, we’re all about sending kindness out into the world.
So while the name has personal meaning for us, it’s also a reflection of what we hope every gift brings: a small moment of happiness, sent with love.
