Description
This set of two wooden storage boxes brings a soft woodland scene to a nursery shelf, with a pale pink finish and a gentle pastel print of little animals. The pair is a larger and a smaller rectangular box, made to stack neatly, the smaller sitting on top of the larger. The larger box is covered all over with rabbits, hedgehogs, owls, badgers and mice among dandelion clocks and tiny mushrooms, while the smaller box carries a single scene on its front: a bear, a rabbit, a hedgehog and a mouse with a little flag beside a string of bunting, with more woodland friends gathered across its lid.
We think they sit beautifully in a nursery or a little one's bedroom, on a chest of drawers, a bookshelf or the top of a wardrobe, where the pastel pinks, greys and soft browns suit a calm, gentle scheme. Stacked, they make a tidy tower; apart, they can live in different corners of the room. They make a thoughtful gift for new parents, a pretty home for the first precious bits and pieces: tiny hats, cards from the day the baby arrived, a first lock of hair or a favourite little outfit.
Each box is wooden, shaped like a little travel case with a lid that fastens with a silver-tone clasp at the front. The edges are trimmed with pale bands with a stitched look and finished with metal studs at the corners, the outside has a softly textured surface, and the inside is black. To keep them looking fresh, dust with a soft dry cloth and wipe gently with a barely damp cloth when needed. For gifting, we like to tuck a few first keepsakes inside the smaller box and present the pair stacked, ready for the nursery shelf.

Frequently Asked
What is the print on these storage boxes?
It is a soft pastel woodland print. The larger box has rabbits, hedgehogs, owls, badgers and mice all over it, and the smaller box shows a bear and friends beside a string of bunting.
Do the two boxes stack together?
Yes. The smaller box sits neatly on top of the larger one, so the pair makes a tidy stack on a shelf or chest of drawers, or you can use them apart.
What are the boxes made of?
Both are wooden boxes with a softly textured printed outside, pale edge trim with a stitched look, metal studs at the corners and a black inside.
How do the boxes close?
Each lid fastens at the front with a silver-tone clasp, in the style of a little travel case, so whatever you keep inside stays tucked neatly away.
Would these make a good gift for new parents?
We think so. They make a thoughtful gift for new parents, ready to hold the first cards, tiny clothes and little keepsakes from a baby's earliest days.
How should I care for the boxes?
Dust them with a soft dry cloth and wipe gently with a barely damp cloth when needed. Never soak them, as they are wooden boxes with a printed finish.
