Welcome to Muse Baskets and Co.
The Art of Thoughtful Gifting
At Muse Baskets and Co., we believe gifting is an experience, one that should move beyond aesthetics and into feeling. A truly thoughtful gift makes someone feel loved, appreciated, seen, valued, and worthy.
Every Muse gift is curated with intention. From the textures and flavours to the final presentation, each element is chosen to create an emotional response, whether you're celebrating a milestone, expressing gratitude, or marking a meaningful transition.
Proudly voted #1 Gift Basket Shop in Vancouver by The Best Vancouver, 2025 & 2026.
Our Story
Muse began not as a business idea, but as a creative return.
During a season of personal and professional transition, I found myself drawn back to something that had always come naturally, the art of gifting. The ability to observe, understand, and curate something meaningful for another person had long been a source of joy for me, and in that moment, it became a way to create purpose, beauty, and momentum.
What started as a small, heartfelt concept quickly resonated. Within our first year, Muse fulfilled its first large-scale order, a moment that confirmed what I already knew intuitively: thoughtful gifting, when done with care and intention, has real impact.
Muse grew organically from there, guided by discernment, emotional connection, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
Growth & Milestones
Since its inception, Muse Baskets and Co. has grown with intention and clarity, reaching milestones that reflect both trust and consistency.
What began as a solo creative vision has expanded into a growing studio with dedicated staff support, built on a foundation of relationships rather than volume. Over the years, we have secured multiple large-scale corporate gifting projects, including our first six-figure order, a milestone that speaks not to scale, but to the depth of trust our clients place in us.
Year over year, each season has built upon the last. We have established long-term relationships with corporate clients, real estate professionals, and brands who return to Muse time and time again, not because of convenience, but because of reputation. A reputation for reliability, refinement, and gifting that leaves a lasting impression.
MEET THE FOUNDER
The Heart Behind Muse
I'm Meena, Founder and Creative Director of Muse Baskets and Co.
I've always been a curator at heart, someone who takes the time to understand people and translate that understanding into meaningful, elevated experiences. For me, a gift has never been simply about the object itself. It is a way of saying, I see you. I know you. I thought of you.
But the seed for Muse was planted long before I knew what to call it.
As a child, receiving a gift basket was a rare and special moment. There was something magical about untying the bow, pulling back the cellophane, and slowly discovering each item inside. Every piece felt considered, chosen with care, and wrapped in the intention of someone who wanted you to feel something. That sense of joy, excitement, curiosity and warmth stayed with me.
That feeling is the reason Muse exists.
I believe gifting comes from the heart. At Muse, our focus is always on the emotion a gift evokes in the person receiving it. Not simply how it looks, but how it makes someone feel. Whether the message is thank you, congratulations, welcome, I appreciate you, or simply I was thinking of you, the most memorable gifts communicate something words alone sometimes cannot.
That philosophy is also what inspired our Corporate Gifting Portal, giving our clients a thoughtful and effortless way to create those moments consistently throughout the year, while still preserving the personal feeling behind every gift.
Muse allows me to blend intuition, creativity and refined luxury into gifts that feel personal, intentional and timeless. Today, I lead the studio with a clear vision, setting the tone, the standards and the direction for what modern luxury gifting can be, while never losing sight of the feeling that started it all.

Our Values
Community & Giving Back
The heart of Muse is rooted in celebrating diversity and fostering inclusion. We intentionally source our products from small businesses, women-owned companies, and BIPOC-owned brands, thoughtfully selecting each item to reflect our values and honor a rich tapestry of perspectives.
Every purchase you make with us goes beyond the gift itself. You are empowering remarkable entrepreneurs, amplifying underrepresented voices, and creating a truly meaningful gift-giving experience. Together, we are building a community that uplifts, supports, and shines a light on the creativity and dedication of these inspiring makers.
As part of our commitment to giving back, we are proud to offer our Pink Ribbon Collection, a curated selection of luxury gift baskets where a portion of every purchase is donated to support breast cancer awareness and research in Canada. Available year-round, because awareness and support should never have a season.
Gift beautifully. Give back meaningfully.
Woman-Owned and Operated
Being woman-owned is not simply a label at Muse. It is a lens through which every decision is made.
It shapes who we source from, choosing to uplift women-owned makers and small independent brands over mass producers. It shapes how we communicate, with warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care rather than transaction. It shapes what we prioritize, relationships over volume, quality over convenience, and meaning over margin.
As a woman building a business, Meena understands firsthand what it means to want your work to be taken seriously, to be seen for the craft and intention behind it rather than just the product. That understanding is baked into everything Muse creates. Every gift is built with the same attention and respect we would want extended to ourselves.
At Muse, being woman-owned means gifting with a standard that goes beyond beautiful. It means gifting with integrity.
Corporate Gifting, Redefined
Corporate gifting should be more than generic, excessively branded merchandise. At Muse, we create gifts that evoke emotion, tell a cohesive story, and leave a lasting impression on the people who matter most to your business.
Our approach combines subtle, tasteful branding with thoughtful curation, ensuring each gift feels personal, intentional, and beautifully executed. Every detail is designed to reflect your values and convey genuine appreciation, making the recipient feel truly seen, valued, and inspired by the care behind the gesture.
As part of our commitment to redefining the corporate gifting experience, Muse is proud to have created the first of its kind Corporate Gifting Portal, a private, streamlined platform built exclusively for our corporate clients. From placing orders and managing recipients to tracking deliveries and storing your business cards on file, the portal removes the friction from gifting at scale, so you can focus on the relationships that matter.
Thoughtful gifting, made effortless.

Every gift is an opportunity to make the people in your world feel truly valued. Whether you're discovering Muse for the first time, welcoming a new client, celebrating a team milestone, or simply want to show someone you care, we are here to help you gift with intention.
