Just their name to begin. Every extra is optional.

Big feelings. Little effort.

01 Make it theirs

Start with their name. Add your own little touches, or let the magic do its thing.

02 Preview it, free

See exactly what they will see, as many times as you like. Change anything until it feels right.

03 Send one link

When you love it, send it on WhatsApp. They open it a little at a time, and their reply comes back to you.

For someone who matters

Who's the
birthday person?

A name is all you need. The rest is icing.

Pick a mood Sets the colours, words and music

A little more them.

ALL OPTIONAL

Pick a little. Pick a lot. Or skip straight to the surprise.

A note from youThe words only you would say

Leave this blank and we'll tuck in a lovely birthday note.

Your favorite photosThe blurry ones count, too
or add an image link for a smaller gift URL

Uploads are resized and stored inside your gift, not on a server. Public image links keep the shareable URL shorter.

A few little memoriesRemember that one time…

Up to 3 moments. No big story needed. Just the good little things.

Your voice, saying itBecause some things sound better from you
or bring your own voice note
Up to 60 seconds

Recording asks for your microphone. It never leaves this page until you share your gift. Uploaded recordings make longer links.

A birthday soundtrackA tiny bit of atmosphere

Two soft, built-in melodies. Music begins after they light up the room, and can always be muted.

Use an audio file link, not a Spotify or YouTube page.

One playful surpriseA tiny detour. A very big smile.
The grand finaleMaybe the surprise isn't just on this screen…

A playlist, a little video, a place to meet. Anything with a public web link.

Just a little heads-up: anyone with the gift link can open it. Only include photos and words you're happy to share. Your draft stays in this browser when storage is available.

A name. That's all the magic needs.
No account. Just your little corner of the internet.
Sealed with a little love

Their day is about
to get lovelier.

For the miles between hellos

Missing someone is quiet and constant. This gift lets you send a paper hug across a small illustrated route, with a note from where you are and a light for them to come back to.

Add an "until the next hello" line, a photo or a voice note. It suits long-distance couples, friends who moved, parents and children living apart, or anyone you cannot be near right now.

Send a paper hug

What they will experience

  1. A light across the distance
  2. Catch a paper hug
  3. A note from over here
  4. Until the next hello

Who it is for

Words to get you started

Every field in Kholona has editable suggestions. Here are a few lines to make your own:

Three tips before you write

Tell them what you noticed today

A small detail from your day ("I passed our old café") makes distance feel smaller.

Use your voice

A short voice note carries warmth that text cannot.

Say when you will next see them

The "until the next hello" line is best when it is a real plan.

Questions people ask

What is the paper hug?
A small paper figure that travels across an illustrated route. The recipient catches it and then reads your note.
Can I use it for family as well as partners?
Yes. Change the wording and the mood to suit, whether for a parent, grandparent, friend or partner.
Can I add a voice note?
Yes. You can record one in the browser, up to about 60 seconds, or upload an audio file.
Will it work across countries?
It is a link that opens in any modern browser, so it works wherever they are.
