“My favorite part in this process is being able to travel the globe from the comfort of my own home. It's amazing how we all find the one we are meant to be with.”
"It gives me such pleasure to know that my designs bring happiness to the homes they make their way to," says Portland, Oregon artist Sandrine Froehle. Sandrine captures the love shared between individuals in her work. From her first piece—portraying a newly engaged couple that split the distance between California and Scotland—she has had the opportunity to represent long-distance relationships the world over. "My favorite part in this process is being able to travel the globe from the comfort of my own home. It's amazing how we all find the one we are meant to be with."

A great way to express your feelings.
My wife and I are approaching 47 years of marriage. We are long past needing much except each other as we continue on this adventure. She is without a doubt THE most important person in my life. I am not very good at expressing my feelings. This little container with a choice of dozens of expressions of love is exactly what I was looking for. She absolutely loves the thoughts that they express. It now occupies a central place on our living room table. Thank you for making this so easy for me. I have found much on your website that is truly unique and "Uncommon."

Thoughtful, customizable gift
I bought this as an anniversary present for my boyfriend and it was perfect. I love that it's small, the messages inside are customizable, and honestly, they came out even sweeter than I expected. He loved every single one. I also told him that anytime I annoy him, he can just pull out a message and remind himself that he loves me too. Ten out of ten. Highly recommend. #sweepstakes

I bought this product twice so far and will again!
When I give a gift I want it to be different, "uncommon" This is the main reason I was lucky enough to find and shop from Uncommon Goods. The craftsmanship and quality is incomparable. Any one can give a sweater or blouse etc but with this gift I get more hugs and love 🥰. The recipients are touched by the sentiments and thoughts that went into choosing the right words to express my feelings for them. So far I have one Box to my husband of 53 years, my daughter and my lifelong friend of 65 years! My oldest daughter received the Birthday Box that had colorful candles on the cover! I intend to give more; my Mom, Sister, youngest Daughter, Granddaughters and close friends. #Sweepstakes

This is by far the best gift that I could ever give my wife!
I can't imagine ever giving her anything that would make her happier. She cried. She said that now she can look in this box when she needs a reminder of our love! #sweepstakes

He loved the love!
My husband loved this sweet gift I gave him on our 32nd wedding anniversary... like, a lot! He didn't want to read all the messages right away so he could savor each one. He keeps the box on his desk and looks at the messages, one by one. A heartfelt gift, albeit it simple and not expensive, has made him feel happy and loved. I couldn't ask for more!

Wonderful, Individualized Gift
The item was exactly as presented, and it was very well crafted. I loved the options for the different reasons, and the only thing I wish would be available would be a category where we could key in one or two personalized reasons--even if it took longer to ship. It is a great product, fast delivery, and my wife loved it when I gave it to her.

Hello! I'm looking to order this for my boyfriend, which would be from me and his daughter. Can it be customized to say "a dozen reasons why we love you" rather than "I"?
Verified reply from Ashley
Thank you for reaching out about this cute custom item! Unfortunately at this time the artist does not accommodate custom heart requests. You can only choose from the available options in the drop down menu. Please check back in the future as this could change!

Do i just type the name of my boyfriend or do i also type : these are 12 reasons that I love you"
Verified reply from Michelle
Hi! You would just type in the name or names! The lid will say "a dozen reasons why I love you".

Hi I order this for a friend but I only put her name for the custom part…. Will it automatically say reason I love you or did I have to put her name and the reason I love you?
Verified reply from Michelle
HI! The only customization on the lid would be the name and color of the heart. You would choose the dozen of reasons from the list in the customization section. The item cannot be added to the cart without selecting the reasons from that list. then the reasons you selected will come on twelve hearts inside the personalized keepsake cylinder.

How do I double check that the item was customized before I purchase it? I hit save but it was unclear if it went through.
Verified reply from Amy
Hi Jonelle! It will not let you save unless you have submitted something. You can also check your choices by looking in your cart and seeing the view/edit customization button!

I would like to add the initials as well as the name on the lid, the same way its shown in the image. Do I have to mention initials separately or it will be added anyways?
Verified reply from Leslie
Hi! The initials are added that way automatically.
- Rachael

I'm wondering if you can use a special character in the personalization? I'm looking for the lid text to be Reesē, not Reese. (ē) Also, if I don't add anything to the request, the strings coming from the heart on the lid will just be empty, right? No letters? Thanks so much! Also,
Verified reply from Amy
Hi Rachael! We checked with the artist and she was amazing enough to give us a sample of how this would look - namely how she'd do the decor for just one name (as opposed to the two in the sample on the product page). I should note, sometimes our Q&A system does some funky things with fonts. In case there's a technical issue in our interaction here, I wanted you to know that the artist has made it clear to me she can accommodate macrons, acute accents, grave accents, etc, as she would manually enter the accent over the font. When you order, enter the name as it should be, but what you can also do after you place an order is email custom@uncommongoods.com with the order # and just reiterate what you had typed to make sure nothing got tweaked during the ordering process. You can mention that you discussed this with the support team prior to ordering. Our email system will recognize the proper character, as it is better than this one in that regard! Hope this was helpful!
