People have used blanket boxes for centuries. At one time, they were a family’s most prized possession, as it was beautiful and useful. It also used to be the one suitcase people used to travel with on boats. Due to its space and compact size, people would place all of their belongings inside and simply have it carried right on the vessel they’d be riding. It was easy, and they knew that the box would be strong enough to endure the travel.
