Nautical Trinket Boxes and Nautical Jewelry Boxes for Everyone

Lots of people think of jewelry boxes as gifts for women, but not everyone realizes that there are a lot of special gift boxes for men and boys, too. Men need a place to keep their small jewelry items, like cuff links, tie tacks, and lapel pins in.

A trinket box would easily become a treasure box for a little boy. They have all manner of little tiny things to keep up with, and every single one is special to a little boy.

Even grown men have little treasures ... for example, my husband has a lucky coin, and a small pen knife that belonged to his grandfather. He keeps these and a couple of other things in a special wooden box.

With these nautical wooden boxes from the artists of Zazzle, you won't be giving a mass-produced gift.
Zazzle's Gift Boxes and Personalized Wooden Boxes are new just in time for Christmas 2011. These small wooden boxes and trinket or keepsake boxes have lids with unique designs created by the artists, graphic designers, and photographers who show their work on Zazzle.

Two Types of Boxes
1. Premium Gift Box (Trinket Box)


The Premium Gift Box (wooden trinket box) comes sized as either 2"x 2" or 3" x 3" and has a magnetic closure.

Does someone you know collect tiny treasures? Maybe Grandma has a button collection, or Junior collects stamps, or Aunt Jane loves lapel pins. My Dad collected sharks' teeth.
If you are planning on giving someone a small item to add to their collection, and are wondering how to wrap that little thing, here's an idea. Put it inside a wooden trinket box or small wooden jewelry box.

They'll open their gift TWICE!
First, they'll take the paper off the wooden gift box, and then, imagine their delight when they find another small, wrapped gift tucked inside that! Doesn't that sound like fun?

NOTE: Of course, this idea works for wrapping any very small item, not just nautical themed gifts. At Zazzle, you can find wooden boxes to fit just about any imaginable theme.

Whether its a jewelry box, or just a pretty little box that they call a memory box or keepsake box, ladies of all ages love them. For one thing, they are a nice touch to a room's decor. There simply aren't as many nautical jewelry boxes and nautical trinket boxes for the more feminine among us as there are for the guys. But, I've found a few that ladies would love.

Besides being a swell place for small things that might otherwise get lost, many women tend to consider the boxes themselves special because they were a gift from someone special.

A few examples of some of the beautiful nautical gift boxes and personalizable nautical themed boxes created by the artists at Zazzle.
