GORGEOUS
I absolutely love this. I wanted to do something special for my mom's birthday and decided to try an explosion box. This is a fantastic gift if you want to give something handmade. The box comes assembled with each smaller piece glued into the next in an offset pattern. The two outermost box tabs all have pockets allowing you to place cards or photographs inside. The box is fairly sized although the offset pattern may make it a little difficult to add bulkier items such as chocolates. I was able to glue in a full 6-pack of snack-size peanut m&ms into the 3rd layer of the box. It closes fine but has a slight bulge to it. The smallest box on the inside can be taken out and is large enough to put in a decently sized watch or small perfume bottle. The box also comes with a variety of frames and decor pieces as shown in the pictures although I think these would fit most easily in the outermost 2 layers. They also provide you w triangle tabs for sticking in photographs, 2 faux sunflowers (which I thought were a little tacky), ribbon, an "especially for you" sticker, and double-sided tape. The quality of the box is very nice. The boxes are made of a thick cardstock type material that will not easily tear and can hold some weight. The lids of the boxes seemed to be made up of a little lighter material but appear to be holding up fine. Overall, if you want to make something personalized for someone special this is a great purchase that allows room for a lot of creativity.

Decent value, bundled with lots of stuff
This thing had a lot of nice stuff bundled together, which added to its value. There are services that put boxes like these together so you don't have to put in the work, you just send them the photos, but this was still fun to get some other family members together to put this together as a gift and it was cheaper overall. Some of the pieces aren't very obvious as to how to put them together, and there's more than you can easily fit inside if the box but if you're crafty and want to make a fairly unique gift, this is a good starting point.

If you're willing to put in the work, this is a great gift
The media could not be loaded. The box came in good condition. The layers are already assembled, so all you have to do is decide what pictures go where and what size to make them. The kit also included 14 extra shapes to put pictures, which were fun in the end, but a few were confusing as I didn't know how they worked. It also came with a skinny roll of clear adhesive and a sheet of colorful adhesives that you can put on the corners of the pictures. The outside lid was dented in one area, but overall very presentable.The layers in the box hold 24 photos total, and you can fit around 32 more in the various inserts the box comes with. I used a total of 56 photos.The most difficult part about this box was sizing the photos. I decided which photos were placed where, then used befunky.com to resize them. I used the dimensions from another review on Amazon, which worked perfectly: On the first, biggest layer, the dimensions were 4.5" x 3.5". The second layer was 3.75" x 2.9". The third layer was 3.25" x 2.38". The smallest layer was 2.75" x 2". In the center is a little shallow box you can either remove or place a small gift in.For the 14 extra pieces, you will have to measure each one and resize your photos accordingly. Some of the pieces were confusing, so I attached a video of some that are weird, so you have an idea of how to use them.The orientation of your photos doesn't really matter; I placed photos a mix of portrait and horizontally, and it looked totally fine. My biggest problem was finding where to print out the photos in the sizes I needed them. I ended up printing them myself, because I have a decent printer. The pictures weren't glossy, but my box still turned out fine.Upon taking the lid off, the first two layers would fall to the table. My issue was getting the last two layers to lay flat. I found because they didn't have much weight, they would stay upright when I took the lid off.I added embellishments of doodles, paper, glitter, and stickers, but the photos by themselves are good enough. In total, I spent upwards of 10 hours designing this, but the person I gifted it to absolutely loved it. It's a great present for the money, just be prepared to spend a while making it perfect.

Cute
Although this is a super cute gift, this comes with no instructions, the tape they gave me along with the “especially for you” sticker was dirty and ripped. Other than that, the box is already built

The reaction you will get is worth the work
Shortcuts: I took pictures from my iPhone And put them on to my iPad computer, onto a regular 8 1/2 x 11 digital page, turned the ruler apparatus on the screen, imported the pictures and shrunk the pictures down to the size needed, cropped as needed, and here’s what’s great, I was able to get all the pictures I need it for all the levels onto 3 sheets. I then just printed them off on a color printer. I had some wide box tape, Cut the pictures a little smaller than needed laid them facedown on the middle of the tape cut the tape to match the flaps, so there was an edge of tape around the picture, put some paper glue onto the flap, and stuck the picture right on. It was actually much more simple than I thought. And then just used a white paint pen set that I got here on Amazon and wrote some thing on each insert and on the top of each box and once I got going it was remarkably quick. So yes, my wife just couldn’t believe it, it’s now kind of a photo album of memories and something like that really let somebody know how special you think they are. It isn’t that what it’s all about? Enjoy
