Love Connection

When designer Jean Gregoire went to the US to study at MIT (just wait, this gets really romantic), he wanted to find a new way to send his love to his fiancée, Melodie, back in France. Super sweet, right? His answer was this romantic messenger.

Send heartfelt messages to loved ones—anytime, anywhere in the world—with this modern take on the classic love note. When you send a new message through the easy-to-use app, the chunky heart on the beechwood box spins to alert the recipient. Then, the object of your affection opens the box to read the sentiment on the mirrored screen inside. They can return the virtual embrace by spinning the heart to send a shower of digital hearts to the sender's screen.

Proof positive that romance will never be passé (that's French for "meh"), it's a tangible way to stay connected with special friends, family, and long-distance lovers. Created by Marie Poulle and Jean Gregoire. Made in France.

“[Lovebox is] so much more powerful than a 'bipbip' on your phone.”

Jean Gregoire always wanted to start his own business. Turns out it was love that launched it. He met his fiancée, Melodie, at an engineering school in Paris and, after a trip around the world for several months together, they were separated for more than a year when Jean went to study at MIT. Before flying to Boston, he created the first Lovebox for Melodie. He wanted to leave her with an object that let her receive his transatlantic messages of love as if they were gifts.

    I send my wife love notes every morning and in the evening before she arrives from work if I am away on business. This way she gets a special message when she wakes up and when she gets home from work.

      Comments about UncommonGoods Lovebox Spinning Heart Messenger:

      My husband and I have been together for 5 years now, and since day 1 we knew we had something unique. We have successfully celebrated every monthaversary with some form of token of our affection: a card, date night, concert tickets, a motorcycle, etc. So when I got a little Lovebox I was so excited. This little guy is easy to set up, easy to invite people who can send little love notes to you, and easy to read when you get a note. All in all it's super cute and super easy to use. I love it, and think it's a perfect gift for lovers...especially if they are long distance relationshiping it for a while.

      Another cool use I thought of: You can program up to 20 names which for an adult is cool, but for a kid is beyond perfect. This guy could be set up so that small kids who don't have phones can get notes from their parents, grandparents, and aunts/uncles.

        My long distance boyfriend and I text and video chat everyday and we love leaving notes for the other to wake up to. Lovebox gives me an alternate way to send him messages to wake up to, come home to and even just throughout the day. It's a perfect combination of cute and tech to please us both. Seeing the first message pop up on the screen was exciting for both me and him and he's always thrilled when the the little heart twirls around, signalling a new message. It feels more personal than a text and I'm absolutely sure this is one the best purchases I've ever made.

          I send love notes to my husband, when I'm in the next room, or when I'm 'cross country, when he wakes up earlier than me, and when I wake up earlier than him.

            The lovebox is great for any person and any occasion. Unfortunately, it has to be plugged in at all times, but on the other hand, this allows it to be constantly ready to recieve messages and deliver them to your person of interest. Cute gift that I have zero regrets buying.

              Can't think of anything to bash this product about. It's wonderfully romantic, cute and a useful product. I have left a message every day. And, checking it for messages is just about the first thing my boyfriend does when he comes home. The app keeps track of your messages for you and lets you know when they are read. Once you set it up, there is nothing to do but think of new things to tell your sweetheart every day. So much more exciting than a text or email message. He loves it.

                This is so much fun. I love boxes so for a box to do something fun was an extra bonus. Easy to set up, then you download the app, and then you are ready for message giving. It is just a fun, creative item to have. Better than a box of chocolates, and the gift keeps on giving depending on how many messages you want to send your loved one!

                All was good with delivery and packaging.

                  I got this as a Kickstarter for my 96 YO Grandmother who is in the early stages of dementia and doesn't do technology. This is a great way for everyone to be able to send her short notes and for her to engage with something that lets her know people are thinking of her. The comments not the screen could be larger. Hopefully there will be an app update ... But we love it and she caught on quickly!
