Whimseybox Review and $5.00 Coupon
Whimseybox is a craft subscription box that sends a complete craft, with all the supplies needed, for $15.00 a month. Every month, Whimseybox sends project instructions, DIY supplies, a reusable storage box, and an original 5×7 original art print each month. Whimseybox's slogan is “Stop pinning, start making”. If are on Pinterest, you know how addicting it can be. I personally have 928 pins on Pinterest. How many projects have I actually completed? I have maybe completed 5 -10 projects from Pinterest. I was excited to see a company that sends you everything you need for a project, right to your house.

| This is how the box ships |
The box ships by USPS and comes in this blue box.
 |
| The Main Box |
This is the main box that contains all the craft materials. It is a nice sturdy box that is meant to be reused.
 |
| First Look |
I loved my first look. The ribbon was so beautiful, I had to wait a day or two to open the box. I couldn't bear to untie the ribbon.
 |
| The Card |
This is the art card for this month. I love this print! I am going to put it in my window when the snow hits and I am craving winter.
 |
| The Directions |
The project this month was a DIY Beaded Wrap Bracelet. Project DIY included everything you need to make 2 double wrap bracelets.
 |
| The Box Contents |
 |
| The contents part 1 |
Whimseybox sent 2 stickers “Stop Pinning, Start Making, 2 buttons, 2 stickers to personalize, a coupon, and a card with the needle attached (see next photo)
 |
| Contents part 2: All supplies included |
Whimseybox included every supply you will need for the project: string, clamps, pencils, ruler, needle, beads, clipboard, glue and rope for the bracelets. The pencils are very cute and they have little sayings on them; “stop pinning, start making”, “DIY 4 Life” and “Makers Gonna Make”.
 |
| First Step |
The directions are super simple to follow. There are pictures to coordinate with each step.
 |
| Bracelet under way |
I added a few extra stitches in the beginning, but soon found my grove.
 |
| Finished! |
This is the finished piece! I just just one bracelet instead of the double. It turned out great. I am going to make the yellow into a double bracelet and then do another single with the teal. I broke my needle (my fault), so I will post another picture when I complete the yellow one.
Final Thought: I love crafting. I used to scrapbook all the time and craft all the time. It is harder to find the time to do it now with two children. I love the Whimseybox sends all the materials to make 2 bracelets. It was fast and simple to make. I did it during nap time! This is a great subscription if you love crafting. It is also great if you want to craft, but need help with the steps. Everything is easy to follow and clearly printed out.
