Custom ties and scarves in your museum shop: where are meets fashion
The success of custom ties and scarves for your museum shop
A day at the museum is not complete without a visit to the gift shop. Thus, the enticing items on the shelves of your museum shop make for portable, and sometimes wearable, mementos of favorite artworks. Museum gifts help bring to life galleries and exhibits in a variety of ways. These items engage visitors by letting them take home a piece of their favorite artwork and help them remember exhibits for years to come. Most of all, custom gifts also turn visitors into ambassadors as soon as they walk out the door.
