Frequently Asked Questions

Which size should I choose?

Small (20cm x 15cm x 10cm): > Ideal for those tiny first keepsakes. Perfect for hospital name bands, your baby’s first dummy, a lock of hair, jewelry, and small trinkets.

Large (30.5cm x 22cm x 13cm) – Our Best Seller: > Designed to fit standard A4 documents. This is the perfect choice for storing your baby journals, ultrasound photos, "coming home" outfits, and first birthday cards.

Extra Large (43cm x 30.5cm x 13cm): > For the family who wants to keep everything. This fits bulky items like heirloom blankets, soft toys, multiple journals, and larger clothing items like christening gowns or newborn beanies.

What is the box made of?

Our boxes are handcrafted in Australia from high-quality 12mm dressed pine with a smooth 4mm plywood sliding lid.

Because wood is a natural product, your box will have its own unique personality with varying wood grains, patterns, and natural knots. We believe this makes every keepsake box as unique as the child it belongs to.

How do I ensure my personalisation is correct?

  1. Check the Font: Use our Font Previewer on the product page to see exactly how your name looks in our different styles.
  2. Review Details: We engrave exactly what you type. Please double-check birth dates, times, and weights before hitting 'Add to Cart'.
  3. Proofs: If you select "Yes" for a proof, we will email you and request for your approval. Please check your junk folder! If we don't hear back within 24 hours of sending the proof, we will proceed with production to avoid delays.

When will my order arrive?

Processing: As these are handmade in Australia, please allow 2–3 weeks for us to craft your box before it is shipped.
Shipping: We ship via trackable courier. Choosing 'Express Shipping' speeds up the time it takes the postman to deliver it, but does not change the making time.
Need it sooner? Email us at hello@pipandwillow.com.au to see if we can accommodate a rush order (a rush fee applies).

Will my box warp over time?

Because our boxes are made from natural solid timber, they can slightly expand or contract depending on the humidity and temperature of your home.

To prevent warping:

  • Store in a dry place: Avoid damp areas like laundries or bathrooms.
  • Keep away from direct sunlight: Long-term exposure to harsh sun can dry out the wood too quickly, leading to "cupping" or cracks.
  • Avoid extreme heat: Keep your box away from heaters or fireplaces.
