Elin Skredsvik is the founder of namepresents. She has an entrepreneurial spirit, sees opportunities in most situations and loves throwing herself head over heels into new exciting projects. Read her story about how namepresents was born.
The idea behind namepresents came about on a summer’s day 2017 while I was frenetically looking for a gift for the christening of one of my best friends' baby. I wanted something personalised, something created especially for the little one. I wanted it to look nice and be fun. Preferably not too expensive. And did I mention personalised?
Not an easy thing to find and I noticed quite quickly that there wasn’t much choice out there. It lead me to start thinking about how to create the perfect personalised present. The idea of using letters, that in the right combination would create any word or name, started to grow and developed into namepresent. Some blood, sweat and tears later, I’m incredibly proud of our beautiful letters and hope you like them as much as I do!
