New downtown shop features gifts in a basketBy Carol Britton MeyerTownOnline.com

Hingham -The new boutique on Water Street is overflowing with gift ideas.

The Hingham Gift Company, which specializes in mix-and-match gift basket building, offers more than 300 “unique, luxurious, and practical” items. When gathered together in a gift basket – or sold separately – they make eye-catching and appealing gifts for a friend, family member – or yourself! Each item is special and useful, down to the gift basket container. The shop is located at 61 Water St., beside Bare Cove Gourmet Caterers on the harbor end.

“The most unique thing about the Hingham Gift Company is its flexible mix of the ‘build-your-own-gift-basket’ and regular retail gift store concepts,” said shop owner Emily Mondon. “Most of the items make very good stand-alone purchases but are also modular and can be easily combined into compatible sets or groups that can be wrapped in a gift bag, complimentary gift wrap, or as a gift basket, all with a personal touch.”

The Water Street shop specializes in high-quality specialty gifts and gift baskets for any occasion – a bridal or baby shower, birthday, graduation, house warming, wedding, realtor closing, a holiday, or other special event.
