Be Creative!
Hi! Welcome to Just A Little Gift.
Our story began about 12 years ago when I bought a metal stamping set to make Christine a keychain for our anniversary. Because Christine has always loved everything musical, I decided to make her a personalized guitar pick instead.
The first attempt came out a little crooked, but after plenty of practice, I created a finished piece I was proud to give her. Christine loved it—and was amazed that I had made it myself. Almost immediately, she asked whether I could make an ID tag for our beloved Corgi, Scrappy Doo.
I bought a small paw-print stamp, practiced some more, and created a tag just for him. Before long, Christine was showing our pieces to friends and family, who began asking us to create personalized items for them and their pets. That simple anniversary gift—and Scrappy Doo’s first tag—became the beginning of Just A Little Gift.
Today, our shop focuses heavily on personalized pet gifts and memorial keepsakes. Animals have always been an important part of our family. We currently share our lives with our two horses, Ammo and Holly, and our pony, Crystal. Over the years, we have also experienced the heartbreak of losing several beloved animals, including our dogs Scrappy Doo and Dahlia, our cat Little Boy, and several other special pets who will always remain part of our family.
Those losses are a major reason our pet memorial pieces mean so much to us. We understand that a pet is never “just a pet.” They are family, companions, and a part of the moments and memories that shape our lives.
After creating thousands of personalized pieces for people and pets around the world, we still take great pride in every item we make. Whether you are celebrating a new companion, honoring a lifelong friendship, or remembering a beloved pet who has passed, we hope our work helps make that moment a little more special—and preserves a memory that will last for years to come.
Thank you for allowing our family to create something meaningful for yours.
R.J. & Christine
