The items included in the box where a wooden page holder, a candle, an enamel pin, a metal travel mug, a wooden block calendar, and a three year memory journal. I love boxes where everything works together and has great inspiration. I loved all the practical items in this box especially the wooden block calendar as I’ve considered getting one but never ended up buying one.
