Gift in a box

I love the process of finding the perfect gift. It is a process. Often frustrating. It involves walking up and down the aisles of many shops. It means ignoring the hovering sales assistants and looking for the unexpected. Gifts that mean something to the receiver and the giver.

It is a long process and the internet has made it easier. At the click of a button, I have access to exotic and gifts ideal for the recipient. Shipping charges and numerous delivery issues later, I assemble the ideal gift boxes for friends. It takes months at times. Frustrating and patience testing.

And that is the reason I fell in love with the Story Box from My Big Red Bag. Boxes pre-packed with goodies exclusive and special just the way I like them.

My monsoon story box arrived on a typical Chennai summer day. No sign of rain. (Now that is an idea – they should deliver on a rainy day). The box was wrapped in pretty chevron paper. I could feel the love. Gifts wrapped pretty always make me happy.

The three items in the box were unique and exclusive. The Flying Elephants umbrella was an instant favourite. I love the funky colours and the whimsical design. All I need now is a rainy day to unfurl. Tattva foot scrub to pamper my tired feet and the chemical-free lemongrass room freshener (shaped like an elephant) were perfect gifts.

I would gift them to a friend (or myself) in a heartbeat. Go check the other story boxes MBRB plans to launch. Make gifts shopping and gift giving a fun experience.

I received a Monsoon Story Box from My Big Red Box for the purpose of this review. All opinions are my own.
