April Kits in the Mail Updated Designs

April 27, 20204 Comments

Thanks to everyone that has ordered my Super Awesome April Kits in the Mail! I have run out of the lighthouse design and have been swapping the heart design components as I go through my stock. Here are the updated designs…hope you like them!

Below is a photo of what is currently included in the kit…plus a bonus, surprise, 3-D project. Yay! The golf paper has a night of navy plaid on the backside in case you are not interested in a golfing theme;) I am almost out of the merry merlot flower print and cut it to 5 inches instead of 5.5 inches. Sorry about that! So am including additional butterflies for the inconvenience. Once the merry merlot flower print is out (have enough for 4 more kits!), I’ll switch to a different pattern in the Pressed Petals paper package.

Looking for fun projects the kids can do on their own or with minimal help from you? Paper Pumpkin is your answer! Kits are appropriate for all ages from early elementary school kids to working adults needing a little fun break to retired folks that are young at heart.

Paper Pumpkin is a paper crafting kit that is delivered directly to your mailbox. Give the kids the task of picking up the mail. They will be pleasantly surprised to find a box waiting for them towards the end of the third week of the month.

The April kit is focused around the idea of making connections with family. Watch the short video and keep your eyes peeled for a sneak peek of the design.

Here is the video for the March kit showing assembly in fast motion.

The project design is always a secret to help with the fun surprise. But, they have been giving clues as to what is in the box lately. So we know the April kit will be greeting card designs.

Here are the subscription prices. Purchase the 12 month option for the lowest price of about $22 per box, depending on the tax in your area.

Please use host code 94ZSGFHQ if your purchase is under $150. If it’s over $150, do not use a host code so you can spend all the host rewards. A 12 month subscription earns $22 in host rewards. Redeem the host rewards for a 1 month subscription to make a lucky 13 month subscription.
