PostBox is a paper and stationery subscription box by Postmark’d Studio filled with handcrafted greeting cards and postcards from around the world. PostBox curates the items to a theme and it costs $25 a month plus shipping. You can save on a longer subscription – save 10% on a 3-month sub, 15% on a 6-month sub, and 20% on a 12-month sub. Each sub is $5 a month for shipping.

Each month, your PostBox card box is filled with four greeting cards, one postcard, postage, and a fun artsy doodad such as a pen, pencil, or knick-knack gadget based on a theme. The value of the products in your subscription box will always be what you pay for each month, sometimes more. There may be a surprise bonus gift some months, so you don’t want to miss a box!

PostBox is perfect for those who enjoy sending a handwritten letter or who wants to keep thank you cards on hand. The items in the box would also make a nice hostess gift in a pinch.

DEAL: Get 40% off or $10 off your first box when you sign up for a 3-month subscription. Use the code HS404ME.

I received a card. The envelope usually gives a clue to the theme.

A handwritten card is always appreciated!

I received a note saying that there was a last minute substitution so while there may be one item on the product info card that is incorrect, here is info on that replacement item.

I received a card with info on all of my new products. I enjoyed reading the short bio about the makers and where they are from. The theme for November is Thank Full Box!

The back of the card listed a challenge for this month: donate to a food bank!

My products were wrapped with gold ribbon. It lifts out of the box in one piece!

Everything in my box!

I always receive a Postmark’d postcard and a pretty blue pencil.

A few months ago subscribers received vintage postage and this month has some new (old) designs!

The back of the card gave some examples on how to create a combo that works for today’s postage prices. It costs 50¢ to mail a standard size letter or card.

The stamps this month were produced in the 1940’s, ’60’s, and ’70’s, plus one from 2018!

Thankful Pumpkin Card ($4.50) What beautiful colors are on this card! I love the fall shades combined with the pop of green and of course pumpkins are always a great motif for autumn. Blank inside with kraft paper envelope.

Stretchy Pants Card ($4.50) Thanksgiving is just a few days away so this says exactly what I plan on doing this Thursday. Blank inside with kraft paper envelope.

Thanksgiving Pie ($4.50) Is anyone really all that excited about eating turkey on the holiday? Let’s face it, pie steals the show. This card was a last minute substitution for the cranberry card. Blank inside with a green envelope. Cute little pie printed on the back, too.

Thanksgiving Chicken ($5) Whew, I’m glad that’s not a turkey on the front, and I’m sure the chicken is enjoying a break for at least one day. Look, she even brought her own bubbly! Blank inside with kraft paper envelope.

ThankFULL Tote Bag ($16) I have a ton of off-white totes but this is the first black one I’ve received!

The words “I’m so thank FULL” are printed in shiny gold ink and this is such a refreshing change from my usual bags. It measures 13″ x 14″ and is made of cotton canvas.

I never knew there were cards dedicated to Thanksgiving but now I know better! I thought the cards were unique and a fun way to keep in touch with friends near and far. The bag is adorable and a change from my usual tote, and the stamps are so interesting, I even remember seeing some of them on cards when I was younger.
