About A Year of Dates
The date night box
Each box holds a year's worth of ideas, sealed in envelopes so every date stays a surprise. The cards are colour-coded into four groups: Go out, Stay home, Surprise and A day out, which makes it easy to match a date to the time available. Nothing on the cards assumes a gender, so the box works for any couple.
Personalised gifts
Beyond the boxes, the shop sells customisable presents, including abstract artwork, coloured water bottles and scented candles. These suit wedding anniversaries, milestone birthdays and other occasions where a personal touch matters. Orders are packed by hand at the company's Bolton studio.
