Artistry Gifts offers three different subscriptions – a bimonthly gift wrap box, a monthly themed box, and a themed box plus gift wrap subscription. My review is for the monthly themed box. The monthly themed subscription box consists of 4-5 wonderful giftable items that you can gift or keep for yourself! Items may be candles, spa items, home, jewelry, snacks, stationary and more!

When I first saw the box I thought that maybe it had a cutting board in it. Then I lifted the box which felt much too light for a cutting board. Time to start unwrapping! My younger son loves to help me unwrap the items.

The August theme is ‘Home Is Where the Heart Is.’

The August subscriber choice was a Illume Candles Room and Linen Spray.

I love the August Artistry Gifts box!

I need to purchase a frame for the Papersource Wildflower Print (16″ x 20″, $24.95). The hand-painted water color print will make a wonderful accent in my dining room. I have the perfect spot for it. The print came packaged in plastic with a cardboard to protect it from bending.

Everyone in the family loves the Illume Essential Watermint Room & Linen Spray ( 3.4 oz, $20.25) scent. The scent is a fresh, clean scent with top notes of lemon oil, lime, grapefruit, middle notes of ginger, cardamon, and peppermint leaf, and base notes of musk, vanilla, and cedarwood. The beautiful glass bottle will display well in any room. I had a hard time choosing because the other two scents sounded amazing. Maybe one will show up in my mystery box.

The Michel Design Works Morning Blossoms Paper Coasters (12 coasters, $6.00 on card, $6.99 on Amazon) are a gorgeous, sturdy cardboard coasters. The 12 coasters come in a beautiful, reusable tin and are printed with soy-based ink. The Morning Blossoms Print is on both sides of the coasters. The coasters are not flimsy paper coasters; they are heavyweight, durable coasters that should last a long time. I decided to pair the napkins from the Summer Luxury Box with the coasters because they make me smile.

Sweet's Watermelon Taffy

I did not have an opportunity to try out the Sweet’s Watermelon Taffy (3 pieces, $0.50) because my boys pounced on them. I was told that they tasted like watermelon and were really, really tasty. This taffy is different than east coast taffy because it is whipped, not pulled, which creates a softer, tastier taffy.  Sweet’s Taffy is always a winner in our family. I did keep the bow to reuse because it is pretty!

The family loved the August Artistry Gifts Box. I will be hanging up my print within the next few days. The Illume spray is being used to freshen up a sports bag. The coasters add a summer touch to our meals. The taffy did not last long! I enjoyed the items because they are beautiful and useful. Artistry Gifts offers a subscriber choice most months which is rarely seen outside of beauty boxes. It’s a subscription box that I feel comfortable gifting to others knowing that everything will be quality products. I also enjoy it for myself!
