This is a sample box. Please allow 1-2 weeks for completion. Free shipping.

I love old books! This Vintage Library theme reminds me of my fathers’ library. Hundreds of old leather bound books, just waiting to be pulled from the shelf and opened up. What stories they hold! What adventures they tell! (I think I will create one of these boxes for myself!)

This box would be a perfect gift for anyone that enjoys books and libraries. I really like the picture of the staircase in the clouds. Unless you request a different picture, I will use this as the main picture on the lid. If you would like the box without the ‘ancient’ lettering on the lid, that is an option also. Let me know your preferences. The dimensions of the box are apx. 9x7x2” or larger.

My boxes are all made individually. No two are exactly the same. Embellishments and adornments may differ slightly from the picture. I welcome your input! Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or requests.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Where do you ship your products?

    A: I ship to all 50 U.S. states, as well as Puerto Rico and Guam.

    Care instructions

    To keep your box looking its best:
    • Avoid placing it in direct sunlight (which may fade the paper)
    • Keep it out of humid areas like bathrooms
    I use high-quality, archival scrapbook paper that’s made to last for years, but gentle care will help it stay beautiful longer.

    Sizing details

    The box size I use depends on the paper design. Most designs are made using 12x12” paper, but smaller prints (6x6” or 8x8”) require smaller boxes. If you’d like a different size than shown in the listing, just message me—I’ll let you know what’s possible and do my best to make it happen.

    Why does my custom box take up to 3 weeks to complete?

    A: A custom box takes extra time because I carefully plan the design with your preferences in mind. I may need to order special embellishments or supplies to make it truly unique. Your input is always welcome!
    🛑 Holiday note: The deadline to order a custom box for Christmas delivery is November 1st.

    Will my Decorated Cigar Box smell like cigars?

    No. I only use clean, undamaged cigar boxes that are free of odor. Each box is hand-selected for quality before decorating.

    Custom and personalized orders

    While there’s no “Custom Order” button in my shop (during the Holiday season), most listings can be personalized. I work with beautiful papers from:
    • Graphic 45
    • Stamperia
    • Blue Fern Studios
    • Ciao Bella
    • Mintay
    If you see a collection you love (after Nov 1st), send me a message. I’d love to create something just for you.

    How do you prepare and package my order?

    Each decorated box is thoughtfully wrapped to ensure it arrives safely and beautifully:
    • First, I wrap your box in two layers of soft tissue paper for a gentle protective layer.
    • Next, it’s wrapped in two layers of bubble wrap to cushion it securely during transit.
    • I then tie it with a coordinating ribbon, not only for a charming presentation but also to make it easy to lift the box from the shipping carton—just pull the ribbon.
    Your order is then placed in a sturdy box and shipped with care. I take pride in every detail, so your unboxing experience is as delightful as the keepsake inside.
