Cross-stitch box

A little icon, and your own words.

Pick a flower, a cactus or another of our eight motifs for the corner, then add text of your own.

How it works

You design it.
We make the kit.
You stitch it.

Step 1

Design it.

Choose a sashiko or cross-stitch pattern, or type a name, a date or a message. See it on the box as you type.

Step 2

We make the kit.

In our Barcelona studio we laser-cut the holes and engraving, assemble and finish the plywood box, and pack it with thread in your colours, a needle and a printed step-by-step guide.

Step 3

You stitch it.

A couple of relaxed evenings. No experience needed — the holes are the pattern, so every stitch lands where it should.

Pink Poppy Flowers
What's in the kit
  • 1 assembled plywood box, holes laser-cut to your design

  • Embroidery thread in your chosen colour scheme, cut to length, plus spare

  • 2 needles

  • 1 Needle Threader

  • Printed stitch guide (and a link to the online version)

Time to finish: about 2–4 hours. Skill level: beginner.

Will my box look exactly like the preview?

Almost. The preview is a guide to your finished box. Real wood and thread vary slightly.

Do I need to know how to embroider?

No. The holes are pre-cut, so the pattern can't go wrong. The guide shows the stitch order.

How long does it take to stitch?

About 2–4 hours for a standard box.

What if I make a mistake?

Unpick and re-stitch — the wood isn't marked. Every kit ships with spare thread.

When will it ship?

Each box is cut to order in Barcelona and ships in [X–Y] working days. Delivery times are on the Shipping page.

Can I return it?

Personalised boxes can't be returned unless faulty. Standard-pattern kits can be returned unused within 14 days.
