Our Story

More than a box. A way to stay close.

Hi, I'm Cori Fentiman, and I created Happy Heart Boxes for one simple reason. As a mom, one of the hardest things I've ever done was drop my daughter off at college and drive away, leaving a piece of my heart there with her.

Some days I feel so incomplete with her gone.

I was always looking for ways to stay close and let her know how much I care, even from miles away. But I didn't want to just send her more stuff. What she really needed on those long, homesick nights wasn't another thing to pile on her desk. She needed a reason to pause, relax, laugh, and feel loved.

That's when the idea for Happy Heart Boxes came to me. Not another box full of products, but a monthly experience. A night she could look forward to. Something to create, a moment to enjoy, and a little reminder that home is always thinking of her.

College is an exciting new chapter, but being away from home isn't always easy. Every experience we send is a small way to close that distance, to turn an ordinary college night into something special, and to remind her she is loved even when you can't be there in person.

Together, we can give our girls something better than more stuff. We can give them moments they'll remember.

Good to Know

A few common questions.

What is a Happy Heart Box?

It's more than a box of products. Each month we send a thoughtfully curated experience built around a single theme, designed to give her a night to create, connect, and unwind. Every experience is different, so there's always something new to look forward to.

Who is it designed for?

Every experience is designed specifically for college girls. They make a meaningful gift from parents, grandparents, family, or friends who want to stay connected and send a little love from home.

What makes it an experience and not just a box?

Every item is tied together around one experience, whether that's an activity, a project, a game, or a cozy night in. Instead of a random assortment of products, she gets everything she needs for one memorable moment, plus a collectible Happy Heart keepsake to remember it by.

Is every month different?

Yes! Every month brings a completely different theme and a brand new experience. No two months are ever the same.
