Fun and thoughtful gift, leave enough time to make it!
If you’re looking for a thoughtful but easy gift, this is probably not the one for you!! It’s fab, has made a lovely present, but took ages to put together. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoyed making it, but it took me 3 days, between choosing photos, getting them printed, cutting, arranging, sticking, decorating etc.The box arrived pretty much flat packed, except for the lids. It’s easy to figure out how it goes together but some of the little fold out section are a little tricker, but there are instructions. The quality is good.I printed 100 photos, using 4 photos per page on a 6x4” print size. Once cut into quarters, these fit well onto the outer box - in fact I could fit two if I angled them - but needed trimming slightly for the smallest box. I used all of the photos which surprised me as I didn’t think I would. I didn’t stick any on the very outside of the outer box but covered pretty much every other surface available. Some of the pull out bits were a little harder to work with as they are quite dinky, I just used a couple of photos and then added stickers and doodles and notes.I would recommend buying some double sided photo tape in one of the roller dispensers, it makes sticking much quicker and less messy, and there’s no drying time unlike glue. Double sided photo squares worked too but took a little longer.Also bought some fab stickers from Amazon for scrap booking, I used loads of these. They are clear stickers with white writing and looked really good against the black, along with some metallic marker pens.The only down sides to this box I would say is that it’s harder to store than, say, a photo book, but it’s a lovely thoughtful gift that I think is worth the effort - just don’t leave it until the last minute! Also don’t underestimate how much you could end up spending on top of the cost of the box - getting photos printed to the right size cost more than I expected, and I had to buy pens as I didn’t have any, but if you are creative I’m sure there’s ways to make it work! Just consider the total cost before you commit.Edit - added some photos of it finished. All of the photos were the same size - a 6x4” Print divided into 4, which give you an idea of the size.

Brilliant gift idea to make anyone smile
Amazing idea for anyone who loves pictures and memories, it’s a brilliant gift idea for any occasions. Valentines, birthdays, Mother’s Day etc.I brought this for my mother to create a memories box with a pendent in the gift box which is in the centre off the explosion off pictures.The larger pictures have a pocket behind them for you to write a little note in each of them. The box is well presented and a neat little package that’s beautiful to display. My mother has converted hers into a clock on the wall.It does take some effort to cut pictures to size etc but the end results and worth it. It’s made from thick card. Perfect gift idea and keep sake

Great price and great quality
Amazing purchase, it’s going to make a great Xmas present! I looked at a few of these online as I was worried it was going to be bad quality but this was the cheapest price and a really good product, comes ready made you just have to put the lids on the boxes and even comes with loads of extras to make it more interesting, would definitely recommend and most likely will be buying again for another present!

So lovely - used for baby gender reveal
Really good product!! There’s so many different inserts and the box design its self if build really well. There were a couple inserts that I didn’t understand how to unfold and maybe one that broke due to not being glued properly but all in all I can’t fault the box and the idea was wonderful. I stuck photos and messages and left a little mini blue motor bike baby outfit in the last Center box with a scan photo to surprise my partner with the gender of our baby since it’s covid and he could not come to scans with me and it’s not ideal to do a reveal with everyone either. It’s such a simple thing but really made the moment special.

Totally worth it
The media could not be loaded. Would highly recommend doing this for a special occasion. Great value for money, lots of little additional pieces to help build surprises for the pockets on the outer layers and just a beautiful unique gift to show someone how loved they are.

Amazing but time consuming
I was hesitant about paying the price for what is essentially a cardboard box but after seeing the finished product, it is definitely worth it. Photo printing has cost about £6 on top of that.We used standard photos and cut down to sizes, can be pretty time consuming to get all the pics to fit but it's well worth it for a special event (18th Birthday) . We like the pockets in the outer layers. The only confusion was over the little extra bits you can put in the pockets, some we have left out as they just seemed fiddly and unnecessary, we replaced with other things. Comes with photo corner stickers (we didn't use). Sheets of stickers. Ribbon and gift bag. We just have to figure out what gift to put in the last box, I would say it's big enough for a ring/earring box/Pandora charm box with some little foiled chocolates squeezed in. Not big enough for a bracelet/necklace box.And for anyone as pessimistic as me about Amazon reviews- this is my honest review for a product I paid for, nothing has been given or offered to me for it. :)

Got the wow factor!
When you're put all your photo's in this box it creates a really lovely keepsake for any birthday or anniversary. You can decorate it and personalise it as it come with stickers. I've brought a few of these for Birthday presents and the people I gifted them to really loved them.
