The October 2024 Cloth & Paper box was a collaboration with Wondermind and focused on mental health. Inside the box there was a puffy quilted bag, a disc bound wellness journal, mood stickers, gel pens, and more. In fact, we received items that tend to come standard in the monthly subscription box, but with touches of serene periwinkle blue for a beautifully coordinated box.

When you start your subscription to Cloth & Paper you will indicate which size planner you own (there are 11 options to choose from) and you can expect 7-9 unique planning and stationery items each month along with two writing instruments.

PLEASE NOTE: Cloth & Paper recently changed to one box option a month. It’s no longer called the Planning + Stationery Box (and there’s no longer a Penspiration add-on) – from here on out, it is called the Intention Box.

There’s always a card that shows a picture of each item and that gives some info on those items on the reverse.

WM x CP Quilted Bag I think this month’s bag is my favorite one yet! The periwinkle blue color accents on this month’s items is thanks to this collab with Wondermind, a website committed to mental health fitness, and one of the co-founders is Selena Gomez! I received a similar bag earlier this year in Army green but this is beautiful, and I don’t know if you can tell in the above picture but the letters W and M are quilted into the sides, one on each side. The bag can be used to hold planner supplies, makeup, or whatever else will fit. I have a trip coming up and my iPad fits inside perfectly for traveling!

Candid Wellness Discbound Journal If this is your very first box from Cloth & Paper (such as those who purchased the box from Wondermind) then you now have a Half Letter 8-Disc Punch planner (in case you are starting a new subscription and want your future shipments to fit inside this planner). If you are already signed up and have a different sized planner (like A6) then you’ll have to hold tight, since everyone received this journal for October. You just slip inserts onto the plastic rings (which you can try out with the dashboard shown below). Inside you will find three different sections: Agenda, which has Monday-Sunday on one side and graph paper on the other; Workshop, which has room for your thoughts on various types of self-help media; and Journaling, which has the heading Focus at the top followed by blank lines for your musings. This journal seems like a good fit for those who prefer to write what they think or feel without much prompting.

The WM x CP Dashboard is printed on thick Vellum and can be placed in your journal, perhaps before one of the sections. The Success Card can be attached to the front of the binder or to one of the inner pages. There were some clips included (shown below) that are perfect for that job.

Cloth & Paper sends their calendars, such as the December 2024 Pop-Up Calendar, well ahead of time, two months ahead in fact, so that subscribers will have it ready to go. The card can be folded into a pop-up, at-a-glance accessory for your desk. The Reflection Prompt Card is the size of a credit card and has a reflective surface that almost doubles as a mirror! It has a prompt to ponder, so clipping it inside the journal seems like a good idea.

Mood Stickers fill the top half of this sheet, while the bottom half has circles in two different colors. Another perfect pairing for the journal.

The Sticky Note + Page Flag Set has both matte sticky notes and translucent page flags, all in one convenient place.

Cloth & Paperclip Duo in Santorini I’ve been impressed with the Cloth & PaperClips ever since they were introduced. One clip is matte and the other is matte but covered in clear vinyl, so it looks similar but also different and they work well for keeping papers together or clipping cards onto the binder.

October Pen Set We always receive two writing utensils, which might include highlighters, mechanical pencils, or traditional pens, like we received this month. Both pens have a 0.5mm nib and one writes in black gel ink, while the other is blue gel. Both pens glide across the paper effortlessly.

We received a card with a note from the Wondermind founders with QR codes on the back to quickly take subscribers to workshops, podcasts, and more.

I was delighted with the collaboration between Cloth & Paper and Wondermind for the October Intention Box! We received items that are familiar to longtime subscribers like a storage pouch, stickers, pens, and sticky notes but the pop of blue was a beautiful touch and really pulled the box together. I was especially happy to get a puffy bag but the pens are kept close at hand, I reach for them all the time. The planner is similar to other Cloth & Paper inserts, they are best for those who like to come up with their own ideas and then put them down on paper. If you have a planner that is different from the discbound version we received this month, then your regular inserts will return next month. Another thing that is coming next month is the 2025 Weekly Task Planner!

Let me know what you think of Cloth & Paper teaming up with Wondermind in the comments, but I must say I hope to see collaborations like this with other brands in the future!

Cloth & Paper offers a monthly subscription box of their planner supplies, inserts, and writing instruments. The items look sleek and Cloth & Paper believes “there is luxury in simplicity”. Our readers love this subscription – Cloth & Paper was voted as the top pick for the best stationery subscription this year!
