December Whimseybox Review and Discount

Whimseybox for December was air dry clay.  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”.  I have friends who love Pinterest and are always making the newest and coolest crafts.  While I consider myself crafty, I never find the time to pick out a craft and go to the store to get everything.  Whimseybox sends me everything I need to create a great craft, all for $15.00!  You can't beat that, no gas, no googling, just fun.

Whimseybox sends their materials in a reusable box.

Whimseybox included materials to make an air dry clay bowl.  Whimseybox included a large package of clay, stick, file, cookie cutter, ribbon and directions.  There was also card to create your own calender for 2014

Whimseybox included full color instructions.  I was a bit nervous about if I could make a clay pot, but it turned out pretty easy and fun!  Once you roll out the clay, you can press object in for designs or use cookie cutters to make shape.

I love the finished piece.  The clay is super light when it is dry.  The lace made a beautiful impression.  I am going to use this in the kitchen for my rings, when I cook.  The finger nail file was included to smooth out any rough edges.  I really didn't need to use it on the bowl.

I wanted to create something else and want to do something Disney related.  I tried to make a Mickey head impression, but it didn't work out.  I grabbed my Mickey cookie cutter and created a large Mickey head.  I wrote 2013, to commemorate our family vacation this year.

I still wasn't done playing with the clay, so I made a mini bowl.  I really have no idea what I will use this for, but it's cute!

Whimseybox includes a badge of your completed project.  I feel like a Girl Scout again!

Final Thought: This box was so much fun.  In school, I hated art and I was never good at it.  Whimseybox makes me feel really crafty.  The projects turned out great and they were easy to do.  I also have tons of clay left, so I am going to let my boys make something.  I didn't get a chance to make the calender, but I am going to use the ribbon to create one.
