Pretty and Useful
I love these little boxes an have them sitting on my desk filled with office supplies. Could be used for anything. I thought they were a little pricey but still, I'm happy with the purchase.

ok but not great
boxes were paper thin except for the ends, not super durable for daily use. They look nice and would be ok for storage of non essentials that would not requrie you to go in them daily.

great child-proof decor!
with a toddler in our home, it is not easy to find stylish home accessories that are also child proof! these boxes can serve as storage or mere decor. they have a worldly look to them and a great natural color.

Looks Perfect Anywhere!
I have wanted these boxes for ages and for Christmas decided to give them to myself as a present. I absolutley loved them. A friend's birthday came up and I knew she would love them as well, so I gave my set away and ordered another! Very attractive, natural/organic feel, fits with eclectic to mid century decor very well. Those who love the look of nature brought indoors will appreciate. The material is very thin so don't buy if you plan to store heavy objects - more appropriate: paper, post cards, stamps, pencils, pens, desk stuff, jewelry etc.

for decor only
i do admit this set looks wonderful in my home, but as the others pointed out, the material is just much too flimsy to be functional, and plus, ive had mine for a few months already, the elastic in the loops have already lost their elasticity, and are all stiff and stretched out. this item is definitely not for everday (or even in my case, every month) usage.

Lovely storage boxes
These boxes are very nicely made and very practical as well as being very attractive. Highly recommended.

hide and seek
These boxes are simply lovely, and great for stuff you don't want out in the open. Just remember what is in the boxes!
I gave this as a gift to someone who was helpful in suggesting ideas for our new home -- she was very surprised and pleased -- she had admired mine and I remembered.

Birch boxes
The design of the box is very attractive and more sturdy than I imagined. I added them to a bureau top to store small items. This simple addition made the room come alive. So, they are both useful and decorative. For the price, one is getting a fantastic deal on good design.

Great set of boxes!
Clean, simple design. Light weight & functional. We bought them for the largest size, to present our jewelry to a customer in & they look great. Yes the lids are thin veneer, but that's the only way to achieve the design. I will use the remaining sizes for storage & display of light weight products, like toiletries, etc. Not meant heavy duty contents, but that's kinda obvious!

Great Product Great Price
This is a unique and quality item. For the price you will not get a more unique box than these. They are too fragile for daily use, but more than just shelf eye candy. I would recommend these to anyone who has a passion for light/blonde woods. My decor is Art Deco and Birch theamed, so fits right in.

Elegant purchase
I ordered the birch storage boxes at a time when I was setting up a space for writing. The boxes are handsome--I love the simplicity of the design and the beauty of the wood. I share the same reservations expressed in other reviews and treat these boxes with care. My major concern is not that the boxes will be torn or fall apart, but that the unfinished birch will eventually become discolored or grimey from use. I would buy them again (I bought two sets) and I would also buy them as gifts.

Loved them!
These boxes are my favorite. Not only are they beautiful, they're functional. I was surprised that the lid was so flexable...it's a super-thin slice of birch, which only makes the boxes more unusual. I'm using them to store wallet-photos that are sent to me from friends and relatives of their children in school. Perfect purchase!

lovely as the tree
These boxes were a gift for my daughter, who is artistic and very hard to shop for and she loved them. They're pretty enough to just put on a desk but you can also be practical and use them. They are very delicate so it's nothing you would want to give a child

Charming little boxes
These are just as lovely in person as in the catalog. Yes, the wraparound lids are quite thin, but they're flexible and not as fragile as I expected from earlier reviews. I would definitely buy more sets as gifts.

Great Purchase
We really like these boxes! We store all sorts of photography equipment that gets lost easily because of their small sizes. And the boxes look modern and fun!

Great item
SImple, elegant and beautiful...these nestled boxes are a great item to have on hand to store knicknacks. The covers are quite thin, however, and therefore have the propensity for the edges to chip and/or break off so careful attention must be given but otherwise a beautiful addition to any home.

Wonderful storage--my daughter loves them!
I bought these for my adult daughter's birthday. She was thrilled. They look beautiful on her shelves.

Simple Statements
The rich tactile pleasure of Birch in a simple yet elegant form- These nesting boxes are welcome in any decor! Unexpected, Modern Architecture in the small scale.

beautiful
These are lovely boxes that look so nice stacked on a nightstand or table. However, the body of the box is made of almost paper-thin veneer (not finished, either). Not practical for houses with kids or pets (or moist areas as I can see them warping). In addition, you can't store heavy things in them as they aren't particularly strong. Wish they were more heavy-duty. I am afraid sometime down the road I am going to open one of the lids and it will crack because it is so thin. But I love the look of them so much, I will just try to be careful.
