“I love love love artful! I've always been really passionate and creative but also with little time, or know-how (largely self-taught). It's like Christmas each time a box arrives, even when it's with mediums I'm already familiar with, it at least means I can stock up on fresh, good quality kit. Having the kits arrive inspire me to get creative again. I'll be taking the watercolour set on my honeymoon with me as it's travel size and I can not wait!”

“My watercolour box has fabulous inks, rich and vibrant! A beautiful pad and some pretty cards and envelopes. Plus the lovely quality pencils and brushes I needed to get going. I’m blown away by the quality of everything single item. Even a book of inspiration and how-to, excellent. More stars if I could!”

“I wasn’t sure about the anual subscription due to the price, but after 2 boxes I can say it’s totally worth it. And not only for the products included but for all the services that surround the boxes: tutorials, emails, info, changing the box if it doesn’t suit you…Keep the good work!!”

“I received the watercolour box as a gift. The supplies are reasonable quality, but overall I'm afraid it was pretty disappointing. Most of my experience is with oils and pastels; I haven't worked much with watercolour paint. I was interested to try it, and initially pleased to have the booklet that came with the box, however when you look inside the 100+ page booklet it turns out only to have around 8 pages of basic instructions exploring the medium. The remainder is a few paint-by-numbers style tutorials for specific pictures that the curators thought looked nice, and whatever the artist version of Heat magazine would be. I don't think I've learned much from it. Fortunately there are plenty of other resources to learn the medium, and I'll probably make use of the paint and paper itself. For learning though, you're better off picking your own cheap paint set and messing around a bit with it to get used to it than you are paying for this. Unfortunately for me personally, I have another three boxes coming from the gift subscription, so I hope things improve!”

Hi, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review, we are sorry to hear you felt this box was disappointing. Our magazine includes various tutorials and artist interviews to help get you started with the products included, but we also supply exclusive online video tutorials for extra advise with each box we release. We've passed your feedback onto our creative team regarding the tutorials for further consideration, because for us it's always important to know how or customers feel about the content we put out :) Kind regards The Artful Team

“Its beautiful, I have felt too daunted to use it. I was hoping for a more basic set of instructions”

Hi, Thank you for you're review, it's great to hear you found the kit to be beautiful. Don't be afraid to get started and give it a go, we all start at the beginning to become wonderful artists! Kind regards The Artful team

“Good quality items. Inspiration to try new styles. Impressively boxed. When I wanted to cancel subscription (it was a gift) and it ran over I was promptly acknowledged and refunded same day. Telephone etiquette, flawless both professional and pleasant.”

“The Artful boxes are a great way to try an artistic medium that you might not have used before, or have a limited understanding of. The box contents are always top notch and worth more than the price of the actual box, the accompanying magazine is interesting and informative and the tutorial videos each month are very helpful. Keep up the good work, Artful!”

Hi Jean, It's fantastic to hear you feel the box content is always top-notch with informative and interesting magazine content! Thank you for sharing your Artful experience with us :) The Artful Team

“The Artful subscription box is carefully curated with the highest quality products and ongoing access to tutorials. One of my favourite parts of the Artful box is being introduced to all kinds of incredible artists who use a range of techniques. The delivery costs are a bit high for me as someone living in Canada, but have paying full annual cost has helped reduce that cost. I look forward to receiving the box every quarter and my learning about art techniques continues to grow with the each Artful box.”

“A very nice box, very good materials!”

Helpful Report

Hi Erica, It's lovely to hear you enjoyed the materials included! Thank you The Artful Team

“I think it's really great but I skipped the last 2 boxes, because I think it's starting to be more of the same. And especially just a box of pencils will not get me excited to pay such a big amount of money. I still like the lino box the most, because that was truly something different than painting or drawing. I like this subscription so I can try things that are totally new, but painting with watercolor or gouache doesn't seem that different to me.”

Hello Anouk, Thank you for taking the time to share your review with us. We're very sorry to hear that you haven't liked the look of our past two boxes and have decided to skip them. We are working our way through as many different art styles as possible so hopefully, our next box will be a better fit for you personally :). The Artful Team

“I loved every box I've got. Materials are always very good and right for beginners. My only issues are that in every box we always get the same 4 greeting cards and basic stationary that you can easily find in every house or in every stationary shop (without paying any shipment, that here in Italy gets to 10€, and leaves me a damaged box almost everytime).”

Hello Francesco, Thank you for your review! It's brilliant to hear that you've loved every box you've received. We will pass on your feedback regarding the greeting cards and stationery to our creative team to consider for future boxes. Thank you The Artful Team
