The fix

You can't always be there.
This is what being there looks like anyway.

Overhead view of the Thread box with the month's activities fanned out — a personalized crossword, family photo puzzle, recipe cards, postcards, and more

A monthly box of personalized activities — built from her photos, her recipes, and the people she knows.

What's in the box

Different every month.

Six personalized activities, every box.

How it's built

Tap her face. Pick what she likes. We do the rest.

Three screens. About ten minutes. Then every box that arrives at her door is built from what you told us — her photos, her people, the things she actually wants to do.

App screen: tap your mom's face from a grid of photo thumbnails App screen: confirm her family members from auto-detected names App screen: pick how she likes to spend a quiet afternoon

Why it works

Personal enough to matter. Easy enough to actually happen.

01

Built from her.

Names, places, photos, recipes, the people she knows. Every piece is specific.

02

Ten minutes from you.

Set up once. We handle the rest. No app for her. Nothing for you to remember next month.

03

Worth keeping.

One piece goes into her binder every month. At year twelve, it comes back as a hardcover book.

At month twelve

It becomes a book.

Her binder comes back as a hardcover Thread Book — a year of finished projects, recipes, photos, and memories. Every year, another one. Stacked on the shelf, in order, for the people who come after.

Questions

The ones we hear most.

Does she need to use an app? +

No. You set everything up once in about ten minutes. She gets a physical box with everything printed, large where it matters.

How do you personalize it? +

From photos you connect (Apple Photos or Google Photos), a few questions about her — hometown, decade, the people she's closest to — and any recipes or stories you'd like to include.

What if she isn't crafty? +

Most parents aren't. The first box is usually a family photo puzzle or memory cards — nothing to assemble, nothing to fail at.

Can I cancel? +

Anytime, before the next box ships. Monthly is month-to-month. Annual can pause or convert to monthly.

What if I run out of photos to send? +

You won't. We rotate through ten Centerpiece formats and pull from your library each month. Most subscribers connect once and never touch the app again.

When does the first box arrive? +

Within 7–10 days of setup. After that, on the same week every month.

Where do you ship? +

United States, Canada, and the UK. Free shipping on all plans.
