The box is an excellent resource for anyone who seriously way.s to learn herbalism or who wants to take an existing hobby to the next level. The herbs, instruction, equipment and materials are top notch, and the occasional extra is always well chosen. Small art prints of herbs and amazing. The box is a class in the use and preparation of herbs. I wish I had it 50 years ago - it is bringing together years of self learning for me. It requires a commitment to follow through with the lessons and to actually do the work. This is not for the dabbler or for someone with interest but not the time or inclination to actually practice.
I am 73, a lifelong crafter who was in a rut. I have done some of these alone, some with my 9 year old granddaughter (sometimes with "help" from her 5 year old brother). I have learned new skills, and the children have enjoyed them and their results have been good enough to display or give as gifts. The kits are well planned and organized, the instructions are clear and leave room for individual creativity, and we have had a great time doing them. The extra educational information in each kit is engaging, and the 9-year old is especially interested in it. The "final products" have been every bit as presentable as the items in kits marketed for adults only. I wholeheartedly recommend this kit for crafters of any age, and think it would be especially appropriate for family projects or for adult beginning crafters,
My 9-year-old granddaughter loves this box, and her little brother wants one for himself, too. the activities are fun and educational, and she can do them by herself. I got them several different boxes at the start of the Covid-19 stay at home period, and when I told her I would renew her two favorites, this one made the cut.
The plants and containers coordinate well, and there is plenty of information in the box to make sure it is planted correctly and then cared for well. Everything you need is in the box, and the packing is good (not true in every plant box) and the shipping quick, I have tried a couple of other plant boxes, and this one is the best so far and the plants are thriving.
Nice selection of succulents and pots, all the supplies you need, and a magnet each month.
The box was exactly as shown, and the quality of the products was excellent. There was no cutting corners or using shoddy materials. Obviously, a great deal of thought went into this. I look forward to the next box.
These bags are extraordinary - great design, great craftsmanship, and thoughtful choice of theme. I have four now, and am blown away by how much variation there is within basically one simple design. The stones and extras always coordinate perfectly and resonate with the theme. The shipping tends to be a bit slow, perhaps because it's a tiny business or perhaps because of the remote location in the mountains of northern New Mexico, but it's definitely worth the wait.
I have subscribed to several spiritual boxes. The quality of items in this box is without equal, especially the books included. However, perhaps because of that, the cost of the box is somewhat high. Also, there is not a lot of information about the herbs or dried flowers provided. Because of the cost and lack of guidance, I cannot give it five starts, despite the exceptional quality.
I got this as an extra activity for my grandchildren when school was cancelled due to the pandemic. I also bought them a few past boxes. They have loved every one, call me when they get the box and when they finish the activities. In fact, I will have to renew even when "normal" life resumes; they say this is the best thing I've ever got them (and that's saying a lot). The only negative feedback I've got (from the 5 year old boy) is that there should be a warning that glue does not stick as well to places where you have colored with crayon ... His big sister says he should listen to instructions). An important life lesson. My daughter says the boxes are well packed, the activities are engaging, the projects well designed and organized with plenty of materials for two children, good choice of themes. So five stars from kids, Mom, and Nana.
What an extraordinary box! The packaging was careful, with many items in individual cloth bags, and the box arrived in good condition. The curation was thoughtful - all quality items, coordinated with each other and with the theme. The chakra stoness were lovely, nice stones and consistent in size. The written materials (Intention booklet and Lammas ritual explanation) were clear, thorough, and relevant. There wasn't a single item that I will not use. No re-gifting here. My box was missing one item, but communication was easy, customer service was responsive, and I had it in three days. The overall experience was uplifting, and has left me hopeful and optimistic.
I subscribed to this box for a year, The thoughtfulness of the product selection and attention to quality is apparent, packing is attractive and careful, and shipping is reliable. There are ample enhancements available online. It is rightfully at the top of many lists of spiritual boxes for women. So why did I leave this box and keep several others? Demographics. This box concentrates on the goddess in each of us, and (perhaps unconsciously, like our entire society) is wonderfully geared to the Maiden and Mother. At 73, I could have used more recognition of the Crone, and our different attributes and needs.
Good choice of books. A good book, enjoyable snacks, and not a lot of junk. Highly recommended.
This box has taken my meditation to the next level, although I got a bit behind the monthly progression. The boxes are full of tools to help you focus and to inspire and relax you, It's amazing how much they can fit into a small box. Every detail has been taken care of , and the quality and presentation are consistently top notch. Kudos for a wonderful experience that will continue giving after the entire series has been completed.
I gifted the Young Adult Box to my granddaughter for her 16th birthday. She loves it. She devours every book, and has discussed them with me. She loves to read but was getting into a rut of genres and authors. She credits the subscription with opening her eyes to other genres and expanding her horizons. She also loves the gifts. She regularly wears some of the jewelry and carries the messenger bag from her first box. When each box arrives, she takes pictures and texts them to me along with a thank you. I thought this gift would help her get through Covid, but it looks like I will be getting it for her for at least another year. I wholeheartedly recommend this as as gift for any literate teen girl.
