PATRICK R. VARONE
Founder + Sr. Editor
I started Giftsicle back in 2017 after creating gift guides for some of the top content sites online – even had a hand in creating BestProducts.com. I decided to create a one-stop destination for all things gift related – from the traditional types of gift guides (for your wife, husband, kids) to guides that are for all the dorks out there, like me, who love pop culture moments like Schitt’s Creek, The Golden Girls, Friends – you name it).
I hope you find the gifts that we chose to be ones that put a smile on your face and your loved ones (or frenemies). We (myself included) choose everything by hand and stand behind all the products that make it into our gift guides. Sometimes we get it wrong and will end up removing them – hey we’re not perfect!
Some of my other editorially content can also be found on Brostrick, Trendsicle, and The Wine Down Report.
If you have a gift you received (or bought) you love and want to let me know, feel free to drop me a line. All my contact info is above (email, Facebook, Instagram, and even LinkedIn). Happy gifting!
