Fab ! fun arty box * REVIEW *

When we got in touch with Fab, fun art box about testing out the monthly subscription box.  both Bodhi & i couldn't wait for it to arrive via the post. The box was personalised to Bodhi with his name, Once opened we found the box was full of arty goodness. We had been sent the Create clay creative box 

Your F.A.B. Creative Clay Creations Include…

• Model your own funky key rings including your own a cup-cake design
• Design your own long legged giraffe or a creative elephant!
• Make your own ‘Easter Island’ inspired stone clay sculptures (– slightly smaller than the real life ones!)
• Make your own fabulous foam clay bowl
• Create your own 3D canvas art
• Make a magical mighty mouse and some crazy clay creatures
• Design your own clay pencil toppers and pencil holder
• Build your own rocky and rolly clay creatures and picture holders.

…plus lots more cool creative clay ideas to enjoy.

The magazine is full of pictures and step by step guides for all of the projects, Bodhi wanted to make clay creatures picture holders. He did struggle with this and needed my help with bending the wires are they are pretty thick. He was very pleased with the outcome and it has now been gifted to nanny for her desk at work. 

The boxes come monthly and in a huge range of themes , from dinosaurs to selfies the boxes work out like this for payment 

Product	Total
Monthly Subscription   × 1	£14.99 / month for 12 months
Subtotal	£ 14.99 now then £ 14.99 per month

Total	£ 18.94 now then £ 18.94 per month

( prices taken from the website ) also check out the site for more details on the other boxes and information ) Bodhi is 4 1/2 and i do feel he was a little young for some of these projects but it was a good craft box for a shared project, I would say its more suited for 8+ or for a younger child who is happy to be helped out. 

Thank you to Fab fun arty box for letting Bodhi & I test out your subscription box. 

All Things Crafty subscription box review

We have been sent an all things crafty box via the post and i was super impressed with first impression and the over all look of the box, i filmed a unboxing and first impression over on my youtube ( watch it now ) we have tried monthly craft boxes before this is the first one i would re-order

Each month is themed with may theme being sports and games, the six photos below are of the six different craft projects. i love how they came in different coloured bags with everything you needed inside. Bodhi couldn't wait to get crafting and one afternoon i had a horrid headache so it seemed like a perfect time to hand over to Daddy with the box in hand they spend well over an hour colouring / sticking and making the projects. 

The thing i loved the most about these little projects was the fact that they needed very little adult help, i left Bodhi making his football coaster while i started dinner and when i came back into the room he was done! he was so pleased with himself and i will be placing an order for another box for the up coming summer holidays. 

I also think these boxes would be great for a child who is poorly or in hospital as everything you need for the crafts are provided , also be ideal for holidays away/camping/visiting family or something to do on a wet dull afternoon. 

Boxes are £7.99 per month but this price does get lower if you buy in bigger volumes of boxes ( I.e for siblings or groups / school ) it is a monthly subcribion box but you can cancel when you like your not tied in on a contract. 

thank you once again All things crafty for gifting us this box we have very much enjoyed reviewing it !
