Planets Parade

Have you been watching the night sky avidly in January and February, trying to spot Mars, Jupiter and Venus (plus others!) in the sky? It has been a great time to take children out before bedtime on a clear night, to show them how awesome the night sky can be! a great download to your phone is ‘Stellarium’ that identifies all the planets you are looking at, if you point your phone screen at the sky, and also shows which constellations are the Star Sign shapes e.g Taurus & Aries. So exciting and visually helpful for children to see and learn.

So for any budding sky gazer, check out our Solar design, that can go on any of our boxes, shown here on Toy Sorter Trays, for keeping very important pieces to lego, playmobil, K’nex and great for rummaging through!

I had three Bespoke Hat Boxes made for me all those years ago (1993) in my left over French wall paper I had in my London bathroom. It was a very grand bathroom. I've moved since, always with these boxes. To the Cotswolds, to Saint Remy de Provence, and now to Naples, Florida. They are going to be someone's long after I am gone. Much adored, thank you! My boxes are beautiful, I'm so glad I found you all those years ago. I just discovered too your splendid YouTube channel. Thank you for opening new doors!

I have recently received my order from you, and would just like to thank you all so much for my wedding dress box. It was a surprise to see such a wonderful designed box, which had a lot of storage space. I have searched high and low for a large box and have only been successful with yourself.
Very rarely in this busy world we lead do I feel strongly enough to put “pen to paper” however having taken delivery of my wedding dress travel box this morning I feel compelled to write to you! I must admit that initially, I hesitated about placing an order for what seemed effectively like just an empty box. Well, I stand corrected! The box is absolutely stunning and of amazing quality – I simply had to express my thanks for supplying such a beautiful product. Rest assured it will be displayed with pride on top of my wardrobe.
Wow! What a beautiful box for my wedding dress. It was so sad to pack my dress away, but your box was just perfect. My Mum thought I was ordering just an ordinary plain box! No way! Thank you so much.
