Our story
We help people be close, even when they’re far apart.
Nikimoon is a family-run gift box company. Since 2020 we’ve designed, personalized and packed every box by hand, and we ship across the United States from Miami, Florida and Pennsylvania.
How it started
I started sending boxes because I couldn’t go anywhere.
In 2020 I was expecting our daughter, the world had shut down, and the people I loved were suddenly out of reach. So I started putting boxes together at home — small things, sent to say I was thinking of them.
Watching people open them taught me how much a small gesture can carry. It stopped being a way of coping and became what our family does.
I still remember the first order from someone I didn’t know. The notification came in, I called my husband, and neither of us quite believed it.

A moment
A gift isn’t the things inside the box. It’s what someone feels when they open it — that they’re thought of, loved, and valued.

Who “we” is
A family business, and small on purpose.
There are two of us. I choose what goes into the boxes and write to the people who order them. My husband Artem has been a designer for more than twenty years — every lid, every card and every layout is his.
The name is our daughter’s. Nicole — Niki to us — was born the year we started, and the company has carried her name ever since.
How a box comes together
Every box passes through our hands.
I don’t make what goes inside. I look for people who make those things well, and I won’t trade down on materials to protect a margin — if I wouldn’t put it in a box for someone I love, it doesn’t go in yours.
What we do make is the box itself. Artem designs the lid and the card; I pack them. Every one is put together the way we’d put one together for our own friends.
Our standard
Five things we won’t do.
I’d rather tell you where our limits are than promise you everything.
-
We won’t cut quality to hit a price.
-
We won’t use cheap components to protect a margin.
-
We won’t send a box we wouldn’t be proud of.
-
We won’t treat you like a ticket number.
-
We won’t promise a date we can’t keep.
★★★★★
Perfect — needed to send a long distance hug and this was perfect. Shipped and arrived on time, and was well received. Will use again!

The practical bits, in one place
Nikimoon is a family-run gift box company founded in 2020 by Kristina and her husband Artem. We ship across the United States from two fulfillment centers, in Miami, Florida and in Pennsylvania, with orders leaving within one to two business days and most arriving five to nine business days after checkout.
Every box can be personalized with the recipient’s name on a custom magnetic lid and a greeting card chosen for the occasion.
Boxes are curated, not manufactured: the pieces inside come from small makers, and the design, personalization and packing are done by our family.
Years from now, I hope someone wraps up in a blanket on a quiet evening, pours tea into a mug from one of our sets, and remembers — not us, but the person who sent it. If a gift of ours helped keep that memory, we did our job.
