Dayna and April, cofounders of Pocketful of Somethings

Our story

Two friends, one better booklet

We're Dayna and April, the cofounders of Pocketful of Somethings.

It started with a gift. Dayna ordered themed gift card booklets online and loved the idea, but the booklets didn't live up to it. There were no pockets, the pages were flimsy, and honestly, it wasn't something she felt proud to hand someone. We knew this gift deserved better, so we made our own.

Every page has a real pocket for a gift card or cash. The pages are sturdy, and each booklet is finished to feel like a keepsake. We design every booklet ourselves, then print and assemble it right here in the U.S.

We've all stood in a store or scrolled for an hour trying to figure out what to get someone. A booklet takes the guesswork out. Each page is a little idea: coffee for early mornings, takeout for nights nobody wants to cook, a treat for no reason at all. You fill the pockets, and they get a treat, on you!

Want to make it even more personal? Add insert pages for photo memories, a handwritten letter, IOUs, and more.

However you fill it, we hope it makes gift-giving the easy part, and the opening the best part.

Dayna & April

FAQ

Where are you located?

Homemade with love from the United States.

What fits in a pocket?

Standard gift cards (3.375 × 2.125 in) and folded bills. Photo pages fit a wallet-size photo (2.5 × 3.5 in) or an instant print; a 3 × 5 photo fits standing up, and 4 × 6 photos need trimming to 3.5 in wide. Keepsake pages also fit a folded note or a seed packet. Scratch-off pages fit smaller tickets as they are; fold larger ones, keeping the fold away from the barcode and play area. You buy and add the ticket yourself.

Do you ship gift cards or cash?

No. Booklets ship with empty pockets, and you add gift cards or cash yourself.

Can you ship it straight to the recipient?

Booklets ship to you so you can fill the pockets before gifting. Since we never include gift cards or cash, a booklet sent directly to someone else would arrive empty.

How big is the booklet?

Each booklet is 5 × 7 inches: a cover, a note page and your pocket pages. Pages are bound with twin-loop wire (silver, or gold on Signature booklets), so the booklet lies flat and pages turn all the way around.

Does it come with ideas for what to put in each pocket?

Yes. Every booklet ships with a filling guide card that lists your pages in order, what fits each pocket and a few gift ideas for each one, from big names to the local spots they love. Every pocket fits a standard gift card or cash folded in thirds.

Can I mix pages from different collections?

Yes. Your occasion pre-fills a few matching pages, and you can swap in any page from any collection in Step 3.

What is the Signature style?

Signature is our elevated look: elegant serif lettering, script accents and fine gold line art, finished with gold wire binding, for a booklet that feels like a keepsake. Choose it in Step 1 in light or deep colors. It adds a flat $5 per booklet, whatever the number of pages.

How much does a booklet cost?

$10 for the booklet itself (cover and note page) plus $3 for each pocket page. Choose anywhere from 3 to 10 pocket pages, so booklets run $19 to $40. Signature style adds a flat $5.

Can I write the note myself?

Yes. Choose “Leave it blank” and page one arrives ready for your handwriting, or choose “No note page” to skip it. Or type your message, pick from six fonts, and we’ll print it for you.

Will I see a proof before you print?

No proof is needed: what you see in the preview is exactly what we print. Please check spelling before checkout. If you spot a mistake, email us at hello@pocketfulofsomethings.com within 24 hours and we’ll fix it before production starts.

How long until it ships?

Booklets are made to order and ship within 3–5 business days, plus shipping time. During busy seasons, such as the winter holidays and graduation season, we’ll post any longer production times here before you order. If anything delays your order, we’ll email you right away.

When should I order for the holidays?

For Hanukkah (first night Friday, December 4), order by Thursday, November 19. For delivery before Christmas, order by Thursday, December 10. These dates allow for our production time plus the U.S. Postal Service’s recommended holiday shipping dates for the lower 48 states. Carrier delivery dates aren’t guaranteed, so earlier is always better. Shipping to Alaska, Hawaii or a U.S. territory? Please order at least a week earlier.

Do you ship outside the U.S.?

Not yet. We currently ship within the United States only.

Do you take bulk orders?

Yes! For 20 or more booklets, email hello@pocketfulofsomethings.com with your occasion, style, pages and quantity, and we’ll send you pricing and a timeline. Bulk booklets come with a blank “For” line and note page, ready to write in by hand. Great for offices, schools, teams and events. Questions or something unusual in mind, like a custom cover or mixed occasions? Just ask.

What is your return policy?

Because every booklet is personalized, all sales are final, and we can’t take returns for a change of mind. If your booklet arrives damaged or we made a mistake, email us within 3 days of delivery with photos and we’ll replace it or refund you. Have another concern? Email us anyway; we’ll do what we can to help.

Are the booklets safe for kids?

Our booklets are gifts for adults to give, not toys. They have a metal wire binding, so keep them away from young children, especially children under 3. For kids’ occasions, a grown-up fills the pockets and hands over the gift.

Are some pages age-restricted?

Yes. Pages for wine or drinks are marked 21+, and the scratch-off page is marked 18+. Please only give those to recipients of age.
