What sparked your decision to start up your box and how did you get started?
One magical Christmas I received a gift from my boyfriend. It was a large box. When I opened it I saw a whole bunch of different gifts inside, each wrapped nicely in a pretty paper and each with a handwritten note inside. I thought then "I wish everybody was lucky enough to receive a surprise like this at least once".
So, I decided to make my wish come true. I started creating boxes full of beautiful surprises. I took this idea one step further though. Instead of opening everything at once, I applied one rule to my boxes. And the rule is: YOU CAN OPEN ONLY ONE GIFT A DAY :-) That's how we came up with a concept of the boxes with 7 gifts for 7 days of the week.
