Our founder, Jane Park, was cleaning up her living room one Christmas morning and found herself asking: can I recycle all of this? 

A quick google search revealed that if it’s too sparkly, shiny, thin, or color-saturated—it goes straight to the landfill. She learned that every year, Americans use enough single-use gift wrap and greeting cards to wrap around the earth nine times! 

She knew there had to be a better way. She remembered that her grandmother would wrap important gifts in squares of silk, which her family used again and again over the years. She was inspired by this Korean tradition, and wanted to find a way to take it a step further. Jane hoped to make re-gifting a more fun and memorable experience, something that connected us and helped out the planet in the process.  

That’s why she created Tokki: the coolest, easiest, most cost-effective way to make your gifts unforgettable. Our gift bags and gift card holders combine thoughtful technology with beautiful designs, fit to celebrate every occasion. They make birthdays brighter, holidays merrier, and cleanup less terrible. Join us in more joyful gifting!
