Pop-Up Gift Card Box (Holiday Red)

Lift the magnetic latch and a little red-door cottage scene pops up from the lid, complete with a garland-draped doorway, a decorated tree, and a tidy stack of presents. A red slot at the base holds any gift card in place. Five inches square and one inch deep, it's the perfect size for a stocking, a holiday tote, or a hand-off at the front door.

"Home for the holidays" is a sentiment that has been around for a long time. Christmas in the nineteenth century was often a homecoming, with families traveling by train and stagecoach to crowd around the same table. The red door is a nod to that tradition, and the greenery over the doorway has its own pedigree: the Romans hung evergreen boughs for the midwinter festival of Saturnalia, and the custom of bringing the outdoors in stuck. Foil lettering, meanwhile, has a history of its own. Gold leaf adorned medieval manuscripts, so when the letters on this lid catch the light, they're carrying on a very old tradition of making words shine.
