A memory box is ideally suited for an occasion, encapsulating special moments from the event, whether this be a wedding, baptism, birth, or other family occasion. However, some people choose a memory box devoted to a person, rather than an occasion. This could be chosen for yourself, or given as the ideal present for someone. They can be personalised and dedicated in almost any way you would like, including perhaps a special message or design. 
Having selected the material, colour and design of the box, you should think about how you would like it to be personalised, for example, with photographs, names or dates. Many people select a box in which they can keep all their memories of motherhood, these may comprise of special pictures their little ones have done, special messages they wrote, things they made, a little favourite outfit they wore, their first teeth and curl, hospital bracelets and cards you received. Many dads appreciate these as gifts from their children, ideal when you can not decide on a special gift.
People often choose them as baby boxes, which you can choose in a assortment of colours, including classic pink and blue. They are ideal for birth cards, christening cards and special photographs and anything important from their first years. Simply, a box dedicated to a child, can be the ideal place to keep all those little treasures you would be upset to have lost or damaged
A memory box could also be chosen to dedicate to a bereavement. Given to children who lose a mother or father, or close relative, is often important for them in later life as a reminder and just something personal for them to keep. Devoted to a child or baby, they can be filled with treasured mementos. Similarly, they can be dedicated to parents, partners, close friends or pets. Deciding on what to keep inside the box is an wholly individual choice.  
Whether your memory box is chosen for a specific occasion or individual, for yourself or someone else, it is the ideal place to keep your special treasured memories. Beautifully designed, they can be a feature in your home, accessible to share with friends and guests, or when you want to spend some tranquil time reminiscing.
