Lil' Grace Monthly DIY Box January 2021 Review
Lil' Grace is a smaller monthly option that Confetti Grace offers, and I love it! The entirety of this experience makes for the perfect date hour for me and my kids. Included are 2 small projects that are holiday themed and fun to make. This month we received the necessary supplies to create two Valentine's Day Signs and Holders. They turned out amazingly well, and this time I talked my boys into giving one away as a gift. Check out below to see how they turned out.
Included in our box is a set of instructions that explain how to create the project. If you are better at following photo directions, they have those too! I have found they offer some useful tips in these directions, and also give way for your own customization.
Supplies
1 of 5
To create our signs and holders, we received all of the necessary supplies except for a hammer. Included was white and pink paint, a foam paintbrush, glue, wooden bases, sand paper, heart embellishments, nails, and thick cardstock.
Gift Bag with Card and Envelope
Because Confetti Grace suggests keeping one of these gifts for yourself and giving one away, we received all of the packaging supplies for one of our signs. I absolutely love the minimalistic details including the gold heart tissue paper, and heart/airplane card. Hank and Charlie decided to package one of our signs up for Grandma and Grandpa.....the packaging was almost as cute as the sign itself!
Creating the Signs
1 of 10
Before we began, we grabbed an old cloth placemat to cover our workspace, as this project included a bit of painting. Once our surface was protected, Hank decided to paint the base of his sign holder white. Once the sign holder was painted, he set it aside and began working on his sign. Using the included glue, he added rows of hearts on the white cardstock. The instructions suggested placing them in an Ombre type pattern and folding the hearts so they looked 3D, but Hank had his own idea. Once his sign was complete, he decided to fill out the card. This month he decided that his project was my Valentine's Day present, but that the one Charlie and I made should go to Grandma and Grandpa. Adding extra hearts to the envelope, his card was ready to go. By the time the sign was made and the card was filled out, it was time to hammer on the saying. Hank chose "I Love You" and hammered it into place with the gold nails (this was by far his favorite part of the craft!). Once the quote was hammered on, he set his card in the top and was complete!

How cute are these little signs?! While Charlie and I followed the instructions to complete Grandma and Grandpa's sign, there is something incredibly charming about Hank's mixture of heart colors that makes me swoon (or it could be the fact that he made it just for me!) Being given a homemade gift is one of the best feelings in the world, and we had so much fun making them.
Verdict: Lil' Grace DIY Box is all about love this month. Just in time for Valentine's Day, our bright and cheery Signs and Holders turned out absolutely perfect. Not only were we able to make two gifts, but we also had a wonderful time together painting, gluing, and hammering. Crafting is one of our top activities to do together, and it sure makes it easy to receive a kit with all of the supplies in it. We can't wait to see what's in store for February!
Lil' Grace Monthly DIY Box costs $14.95 + $4.95 per monthly delivery, so each tree averages out to about $6.63. I feel this was a decent value as we also received a card and packaging supplies to give one as a gift. That coupled with the fact that we have leftover glue, paint, and heart embellishments is a win for me!
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? No, you'll receive the February delivery.
