Today I’m excited to be sharing with you a fantastic new handmade subscription box. Following great success in the Netherlands, Goodie Goodness has now launched in the UK.
What makes this box different? Goodie Goodness curate the box to introduce you to new artists, designers and small creative businesses. The monthly box includes 2-5 unique handmade products including a card introducing the makers and explaining the stories behind each item and designer.
What is included in the Goodie Goodness box is a surprise each month! I really like the idea of discovering new makers that I may not have found otherwise. Here is a peek into the August box.
Note – the box is slim and fits through a letter box, so no collecting from the post office!
The bakers twine, cute tag and hand stamped box immediately communicates the handmade theme.
When you open the box you are greeted with pretty wrapping and a card introducing the designer for the month.
Sian Elin is a small Wales-based online boutique selling interior products. Her story was included on the card and described each product included in the box.
This card is hand drawn and printed on fantastic quality card. Perfect to send to one of my creative friends.
Two luxury cotton tea towels were included which are also hand drawn, sewn and printed in Wales. Sian tells us they are from a new collection influenced by Moorish and Islamic architecture.
The quality is high and they would make wonderful gifts. Something different which I may not have selected myself, but I really like the unusual patterns.
Sian included a card with a coupon code and giveaway information.
These cute polka dot paper straws were included as a little extra. You can never have too many paper straws!
I adore the idea of a curated box as it allows you to discover new artisans and receive surprise items of fantastic quality. I am sure I’ll be revisiting Goodie Goodness site to buy another box for myself or a gift box for a friend.
Anything that embraces handmade is a win in my eyes and this is a unique kind of subscription box!
You can take a look at the contents of previous boxes here. Past artists include one of my favourite Etsy stores – Vivid Please.
The monthly subscription costs £14.99 (+ £5.00 shipping) or can alternatively be purchased as a one off box. Find out more on the Goodie Goodness website or contact them on Twitter or Facebook.
Toodles!
