Let me start by saying this tissue box cover is an absolute conversation starter! The stacked antique book design adds a touch of vintage charm to any room. I placed mine in my home office, and it blends perfectly with my bookshelf.
The craftsmanship is impressive - the wood feels sturdy and the hand-painted details give it an authentic antique look. I was pleasantly surprised by how well it holds standard Kleenex boxes (contrary to some older reviews). No need to remove tissues from their original packaging!
What I love most:
- The clever design disguises a mundane tissue box as decorative books
- Versatile enough for bathroom, bedroom, or office use
- The hinged top makes refilling tissues a breeze
- Adds instant character to any space
However, there are a few quirks:
- The 'stacked' design means it's slightly bulkier than regular tissue boxes
- Some users report a strong odor (though I didn't experience this)
- Not all tissue box sizes fit perfectly - you might need to remove tissues from larger boxes
Pro tip: If your tissue box doesn't fit, simply cut open the original packaging and place the tissues directly inside. Works like a charm!
Overall, this is more than just a tissue holder - it's a decor piece that sparks joy every time I reach for a tissue. Perfect for book lovers and anyone who appreciates unique home accents.
