Hi everyone! We are so excited to fully reveal all the items in the March 2023 Subscription Box: Charming Picnic. New subscribers will be able to get the box March 6th at 9am CT!!
The best part about receiving a subscription box is the chance to try new stationery items. We always try to include some new products, designs, and options every quarter.
This collection was created to inspire you to get outside and enjoy warmer weather after a long winter. As you open the box, we want it to feel like you’ve just laid out a picnic blanket on the grassy field of your favorite park, and opened up a wicker basket full of yummy treats and adorable activities for the afternoon. There’s a fresh spring breeze in the air, sun shining through the trees, and flowers blooming all over. Sipping on a strawberry lemonade, you feel inspired enough to open your journal and create some magic.
The items in this box are intended for when you want to use your books and supplies in a very intentional and unique way—maybe by creating spring crafts, mindful journaling, or something important to your wellness journey.
If you haven't received your box yet, don't worry! You can easily plan out ideas for your new supplies by reading this blog. Excited to get creative? Then let's jump right into the box!
What’s In The March Sub Box?

B5 Vegan Leather Embroidered Notebook - Ladybug Flight
We know that many of you have wanted to find a B5 notebook in our subscription boxes again, so we thought it would be nice to make this one an extra special version of our signature size!
The cover of this notebook features a strawberry vine and ladybug design, inspired by the landscape of blooming strawberry patches in the spring. The design is embroidered into the marigold vegan leather cover of each notebook. We wanted the look and feel of the notebook to be reminiscent of an embroidered patch on a cozy quilt. The pages inside are white dot grid, which is perfect for intentional bullet journaling, note taking, or planning.
A6 Vegan Leather Notebook - Picnic Blanket
Next up, our second journal in the box is an A6 dot grid journal. Because the main notebook in this box could feel a little intimidating, we wanted this one to feel more approachable for everyday bullet journalers. The cover is made from vegan leather with a gorgeous picnic blanket print design. The inside of the notebook features light greige dot grid pages. It’s a beautiful journal that's made for lovers of picnics and we hope that it instantly sparks inspiration.
Picnic Crates
We’re so excited to share that this time around, we added these amazing collapsible picnic crates to the box! Not only do these crates fold down fully and stack on top of each other for easy storage, but they can also be effortlessly built back up and stacked together. It’s a perfect place to store washi tape or other bullet journal accessories on your desk. You can even take them outside and store any flowers or leaves you find on your picnic!
Charming Picnic Calliograph Set
Calliograph pens are everything you need for decorative lettering and detailed drawings, making them the perfect companion to your journal, notebook, planner, or art projects. We included a set of Calliograph pens that match the muted spring tones found throughout the box.
This set of Calliograph pens includes 5 shades:
- Stone Blue
- Lily Pad
- Marmalade
- Pink Lemonade
- Linen Gray
Tiny Picnic-In-A-Box Stickers Set
Next up, we wanted to include a playful twist on our picnic theme - by using a “tiny picnic-in-a-box” to hold all of our stickers! When you open up the mini picnic basket, you’ll find 10 die-cut matte stickers and a sheet of paper with a picnic blanket print that you can use to decorate spring crafts. The stickers are full of sweet picnic motifs, like charcuterie boards, strawberry lemonade, and vintage glasses. It’s the perfect way to add a darling touch to your journal or scrapbook this spring.
Solar Paper Sheets
Perfect for a spring craft on a sunny day, this box contains a set of 8 solar paper sheets! Making art with nature is a great way to practice mindfulness and creativity outdoors. As you spend time outside, gather items that inspire you, like intricate leaves or interesting flowers. Then follow the instructions included with the solar paper to create beautiful sun art that you can use to decorate your notebooks and scrapbook pages.
Life Is A Picnic Stamps
To go with the theme of printing, we’ve also included a set of wooden stamps that you can use to easily press and print designs onto the solar paper sheets or decorate the pages of your journal with. The set brings 7 wooden stamps inspired by spring flowers and a gray ink pad that blends seamlessly with any project you use the stamps for.
Amuse Bouche Box
As a special thanks for being a sub box subscriber, our founder Bonnie wanted to put together a sweet treat that pairs perfectly with the rest of the box. Inspired by the ongoing picnic theme, Bonnie created some items you can use to accessorize or add onto the experience of the box.
Washi Tape Set
We really wanted the washi tape to fit into the picnic theme of the box . The designs are full of adorable patterns that are reminiscent of picnic blankets, strawberry fields, ladybugs, and delicate florals. It’s the perfect way to bring the feeling of a spring day into the pages of your notebook.
Creative Affirmation Cards
Last but not least, we knew straight away we had to include this set of creative affirmation cards! Each card includes a small affirmation for your creativity and encourages self-care and confidence in your art. We encourage you to take the cards with you on the go, shuffle through them, and pull cards to provide guidance and inspiration for your creative journey.
