tinselbox march 2016 box

I was so excited to see this box arrive – the March TINSELBOX has all sorts of unique finds to decorate for and celebrate Easter! TINSELBOX is a monthly subscription delivering unique and often handcrafted ornaments and decorations for various holidays throughout the year.  The box selections are designed to be secular in nature to make them a welcome addition to any seasonal decor. They offer two sizes of box – Box of Spontaneous Joy ($19.99 +$3.99 shipping) and XL Box of Cheerful Curations ($39.99 + $4.99 shipping). This is the XL Box of Cheerful Curations!

This box ALWAYS ships in plenty of time to prepare for the holiday.

A sturdy mailing box and squiggles protect the delicate box inside.

This box is so cute! I love the floral tissue paper.

The theme for February is A Colorful Easter, and you can see just by the booklet designs that they have a gorgeous design perspective on the holiday.

Everything in the box! tinselbox march 2016 IMG_6639

The information list has a bit of detail about each item in the box.

If you’re curious about the smaller box, here’s what comes in it. Both boxes are totally fabulous.

Bunny Garland ($9.99) I love this absolutely gorgeous bunny garland! It’s handcrafted by women’s co-ops in Nepal and the colors and designs are just gorgeous. In the XL box there has been a garland almost every month, which is a super easy decoration to add a touch of holiday flair to your home.

Egg Coloring Kit – Tinselbox ($10) The box also included an egg decorating kit!

I can’t wait to hang this up! It’s made from Lokta paper, a himalayan ever green shrub. tinselbox february 2016 IMG_0043

The coloring kit included a black sharpie, dye pellets, an egg dipper, some rubberbands, and silhouette patterns.

I really love the pointillist silhouette idea (you place the sticker on the egg and create a gradient silhouette around it using the the sharpie). A gold marker was included for the gold metallic eggs – see it below!

Peeps ($1.50) Yay peeps! My kids love getting them, but they never eat them! They like to play with them instead. Obviously we put them in the microwave! (Sorry bunnies…)

Carrot Surprise – Top Malibu ($8) I love that items from Tops Malibu come in almost every box! They’re really fun but pricey to source! “Carrot contains 6 prizes tucked inside layers of crepe ribbons. Items include a sweet, riddle or joke, vintage-style toy, fortune, & bunny temporary tattoo.” Obviously I didn’t open it because I have children and I’m saving it for Easter fun.

Sakura Pen-Touch Calligrapher 5.0 mm Gold Paint Marker ($5.59, but part of the kit) This pen is perfect for decorating the eggs, or writing in cards, or creating beautiful decorations. We always need more metallic paint markers, so this was a welcome addition!

Tea Stitched Vintage Inspired String For Gifts: This is really gorgeous sort of a spring-perfect robin’s egg blue and white stripe with gold edging ribbon!

Vintage Easter Card and Easter Kraft Bags ($6) The box also came with two vintage Kraft bags as well as a vintage Easter card. I love the baby bunny holding on to daddy bunny’s hand! These are perfect for gifting and decorating alike – you can just slip it into a frame and hang it up or place anywhere for an easy decoration. I can just imagine filling these bags with goodies and gifting them!

Ulster Weavers Woodland Hare Cotton Tea Towel ($11.60 – $32.95 shipped to the US) This is so wonderful – I love the modern meets traditional design of this, and tea towels for me are the perfect way to update my home for the holidays! I adore the vibrant, fun colors!

The theme for next month is Earth Day! I have never decorated for Earth Day before, so I’m looking forward to that!

I loved everything in this box, and have every month – it’s one of my favorite subscriptions! It gets me in the holiday spirit, is easy but elegant, and just plain fun. I also love that everything in the box is high quality and made by small businesses and artisans!
