Confetti Grace Original DIY Box July/August 2020 Review

Confetti Grace is a blast! Since the pandemic started, we have been staying pretty close to home, and although the weather has been beautiful and we have been spending tons of time outside, it is so nice to receive a fun craft project to change up the pace a bit! This month, we received all of the necessary supplies to create 2 succulent frames, 2 terrarium cards, and 2 gift bags.

Along with our supplies, we received this helpful instruction sheet that details all of the steps needed to create the included projects. While the pictures are helpful, I found the written instructions very important this month. If extra assistance is needed, their website and YouTube channel are also very helpful. One of my favorite parts about this subscription is that the projects are customizable. You can choose if you want it painted or plain, and how you want to create your plant holder. Let's see how they turned out!

Project #1: Succulent Frames

The first project we created were these adorable succulent frames. Check out how they turned out below!

Wood Frames

We received 2 wood frames for the base of our project. The first frame was 7" X 7" X 2.5" and the second frame was 6" X 6" X 2.5." I am loving the variety of sizes!

 

Frame Accessories

In this little package we received the string for the plant holder, wooden beads, hanging hooks, double sided tape, and our sentiment pennants.

 

Planters

Aren't these tiny planters adorable? Coming in at an inch and a half tall, they are white in color and glass. Perfect for the succulent frame!

 

Faux Succulents

Can you believe how realistic these little babies are? When I pulled them out of the box I was surprised to see how thick and heavy they were, too! I found the "dusty" texture to be very convincing, and was really excited to plant these in their little pots!

Moss

To add texture and authenticity to our potted plant, we also received a bag of green moss.

Paint and Paintbrush

Apple Barrel Acrylic Paint in White, 2 fl oz - Retail Value - $1.49

I love the fact that they send all the items needed to create the projects! You can never have enough foam paintbrushes, and I love Apple Barrel paint!

Avery Glue Stic - Buy a 6 pack for $8.04

Each month we also receive a glue stick to create the cards. While I am more of a tape runner kind of girl, I happily stash these away for the kids!

 

To start this month's project, I had to decide if I wanted to paint my wood frames or leave them natural. I decided to paint the smaller frame and leave the larger one plain. After the paint dried (on the smaller frame) I added the little hanger to the top side of the frame. Gathering up 4 strings, I taped the end together and added a wooden bead. I then slid it to the bottom and tied a knot. Setting that aside, I added the moss to the planter and added my succulent. Placing the pot on the bead, I measured how big I needed my hanging strings to be. Once I was satisfied, I added another wooden bead and tied a knot. Trimming the ends, I was then able to hang it from the hook. Using the double sided tape, I folded a flap of the sentiment pennant over and placed it on the inside of the frame. And that completed the project!

Project #2 Terrarium Cards

 

For our cards, we received all of the necessary supplies packaged in its individual bag for ease of use!

 

The cards were super easy and probably one of my favorites from this subscription! To create these terrarium cards, I added the green background to the white card. Tracing the shimmery terrarium die-cut, I cut out the base of the terrarium and added the stickers. Using the glue stick, I added the terrarium die-cut and ta-da it's finished! I love the bit of shine the foil paper gives, and how cute they coordinate with the frames!

Project #3 Gift Bags

 

The last project we had to complete was these little tags. Using the included attachments, we added them right to our bag handle. I love the natural look! It matches perfectly with this month's theme!

 

And here are this month's projects all complete! I just couldn't resist taking a photo of them in our freshly cut grass! How cute did they turn out?!

I decided to keep the natural frame and put it in my photo collage on my living room wall. I really love how it turned out! I'm still undecided with what to do with the other project. I was thinking about giving it to my mom, but it might just make its way onto our bathroom vanity for a cute little update!

Verdict: Confetti Grace is so much fun! This month we received a great box that didn't take a whole lot of time but was fun to customize and create. I found this month's craft to be one of my favorites, and really enjoyed the look of the cards. While I created this month's projects by myself, I do love the opportunity to share one project with someone else (mostly my kids.) I love the fact that we receive craft projects that we probably wouldn't even think of if not for this box. It's fun and rewarding all at the same time! I can't wait to see what is in store for September!

Confetti Grace costs $28.95 per bi-monthly delivery, so each gift package averages out to about $14.48. I feel this was a decent value for our succulent frames, especially when I have a lot of supplies such as paint and glue left for more projects.

They do sell very realistic looking succulents at dollar stores! I’m in Washington state but was just at dollar tree yesterday and they had some there!
