A shelf of wooden boxes, one for each year

You were there. Phone in your pocket, cold water, the good kind of tired. Write it down, and we post it back to you to keep in a wooden box — one for every year of your life.

An engraved box every year, included. 5 things worth keeping every month.

Why it exists

Nobody is watching

No feed, no likes, no follower count, no strangers with opinions. Just you, and at most one other person who was there.

It ends up in your hands

Not on a server you'll lose access to. A thing you can pick up in twenty years and turn over.

A box a year

One engraved box for every year, filling up card by card whether or not you remember to think about it.

A printed card held up against a window

What arrives

One piece to cut out.

A real card lands on your doormat a few days later. Cut along the dashed line and you have the photograph on one side and what you wrote on the other — small enough to drop into the box, solid enough to still be there in twenty years.

Where it lives

A shelf, not a server.

Every year gets its own engraved box, filling up card by card whether or not you remember to think about it, until the shelf is the record.

How it works

Go and do the thing

This part is not our software's job. Get cold, get lost, get up early. Take one photograph, then put the phone away.

Write it down afterwards

A few sentences, while it's still fresh. A photograph, and a pin on the map if you want one. It takes two minutes and there is no audience.

We post it to you

A real card lands on your doormat a few days later. One piece to cut out, printed on both sides — the photograph on one, your words on the other.

It goes in the box

A wooden box, engraved with your name and the year. When the year turns, a new one is on its way without you lifting a finger.

More than memories

Every story has a home.

In ten years you will not scroll back to find this. You will open a box.
