Our Story

Together Making Gifts Personal

Welcome to TMGP — Together Making Gifts Personal, where every item is made with heart, intention, and a whole lot of family teamwork.

We’re the Crist family: Tom, Mikki, Gabryel, and Payge, and what started as a small passion project has grown into a business that blends creativity, craftsmanship, and the chaos of a wonderfully busy life. From our family to yours, thank you for supporting a dream that’s built around love, laughter, and a laser engraver.

Family-Run, Heart-Led

We’re a family of doers and dreamers. Mikki, the creative force behind the scenes, found her passion in engraving — turning everyday items into lasting keepsakes filled with meaning. Whether it’s a wedding gift, a memorial piece, or a fun surprise “just because,” she pours her heart into each design.

Tom brings his own creativity to the shop with handcrafted crosses and custom patch hats. He’s the steady hand behind the woodworking and a problem-solver when things get hectic.

Our daughters keep things lively!

  • Payge is a dedicated equestrian who competes and rides regularly. She brings fresh ideas, especially for our farm and livestock-themed gifts.

  • Ellie (Gabryel) is an energetic triathlete and a proud JROTC cadet. She's also stepping into entrepreneurship herself, developing her own unique line of custom products under the Crafted by Ellie collection.

Why We Do It

We believe in the power of personalization — the way a name, date, or short phrase can make something go from nice to unforgettable. Whether you're honoring a loved one, celebrating a milestone, or just making someone smile, our mission is to help you create something truly special.

Every order is handled with care, created in our family workshop with attention to detail and a whole lot of heart. We know you’re not just buying a product — you’re telling a story, giving a gift, or holding onto a memory.

From Our Family to Yours

When you shop with TMGP, you’re not supporting a corporation — you’re supporting a real family with busy schedules, shared dinners, horse shows, sports practices, and lots of teamwork. We’re proud to be building something meaningful together — not just for our family, but for yours too.

Thanks for stopping by, and thank you for letting us help you make life just a little more personal.
