As soon as the postman handed me a Kawaii Box the children were really excited. The packaging is so bright and distinctive that they knew exactly what the box was. We’ve reviewed a Kawaii Box before and loved it. In case you haven’t heard of it, it’s a monthly subscription box from Japan filled with…

Win a Japan Candy Box sub box
You all know how much we love subscription boxes. There’s nothing better than a box of treats delivered to your door, especially when most of my mail comes in a little brown envelope. Over the last few years we’ve tried a few of the Japan Candy Box and they never fail to delight. In case…

Mistletoe embroidery and a felt winter fox
I try to make time to craft but I have to be honest, working outside of the home leaves me with little energy for it at the moment. I’ve been enjoying the quarterly Craftpod subscription though and always seem to make time to craft the contents. I ordered the Winter Craftpod box as a little…

Mindful creativity with…
Mindful weekend sewing {Summer Craftpod}
I’m cutting it pretty fine with the Summer Craftpod box as today marks the first day of Autumn. The subscription box arrived a few months ago but it’s taken me ages to find time to make the projects – Summer holidays and working leave little creative time. The constant rain this weekend has kept us…
A gardening and nature crafts box for kids
I’ve been a little busy since the school holidays started which meant a few subscription boxes have turned up over the last few weeks and remained unopened. I’ve had to cancel most of ours as I just don’t have time to open them which is such a shame. However today we had some time to…
Mini Bakers Club review – children’s baking subscription box
There’s nothing better than a homemade treat. Both my children enjoy baking but I admit we don’t do it nearly often enough. We love crafting after school and were overjoyed to be sent a Mini Bakers Box from BKD to try at home. My children love subscription boxes and we’ve tried a lot of crafty…
