How Decorating Elves Gives Back to the Community

Tampa Bay has given so much to Nick Schriver since 2003, it’s no wonder he prioritizes giving back to the community. Without the residents here on the central Gulf coast, who knows where he and his team at Decorating Elves would be today!

To Nick, the most important part of giving back to the community is treating his own employees well. That’s why, along with competitive pay and benefits, all Decorating Elves employees enjoy bonus financial incentives for excellent performance.
