Surprise your friends and family with a Christmas Surprise Gift Box full of Christmas messages, little gifts and even an activity! 

The innocent-looking red box tied with a white bow looks unassuming from the outside but explodes with hidden delights when you remove the lid and the box opens. Unboxing can be seen here... https://youtu.be/DReQRRWr0i0

This is a choose your own adventure box where you fill it with the pockets and complications you want. Select the number of pockets and complications you want for each box using the drop-down menus. If you select 4, 8 or 12 complications please message me with the details of the complications you have selected.

To help you decide what you need in your Christmas box let us take a tour of a box. Each exploding box is comprised of three nested boxes each with 4 leaves/flaps. Each leaf/flap can be left blank or can be decorated with pockets and/or complications as detailed in the specifications tab below.

Select up to 12 pockets and/or complications as you like. For instance, you can have

  • the works with complications and pockets in all 12 places
  • some pockets and complications leaving space for you to self decorate with your own photos, little treasures or notes
  • nothing but the nested box for you to decorate with your own photos from Christmas' past

NB: Pocket types vary based on the inclusions you select as some complications fit or look better in different styles of pockets. 

The patterns on the decorative papers are my own original illustrations and each box is custom handmade to order. 

Additional cup identifiers (and fabric choices) available in a separate listing.

Looking for an exploding box for an occasion other than Christmas? Contact me for options. It would be a joy for me to create a special box for you.

!!!Not suitable for children under 5 as it has small parts!!!

--- Handmade reminder ---

Each Explosion box is handmade to order, as such while in quality, design and construction the same, slight variations will occur, this is one of the joys of handmade items they are all unique and have their own personality and irregularities are part of the handmade appeal. If a particular material is unavailable (ie. the exact same shade of red paper) we reserve the right to substitute with the closest possible alternative.


The box should be kept away from flames and other fire hazards/heat sources.
