Busy Bee Stationery Box is a monthly stationery subscription box for the scrapbooking and journaling enthusiast. Each month you’ll receive a box of beautiful stationery carefully curated to inspire creativity and help with your everyday planning, journaling, note taking, and letter writing.

They kindly sent us this box to review.

Subscription Details

The Busy Bee Stationery Box is $39.90 per month with free shipping to the USA and $7.95 shipping to Canada. You can choose a one-month, 3-month, or 6-month commitment, with price savings offered for longer commitments.

Each month you will receive 5-10 items chosen based on a theme, season, or specific creative project. Items subscribers will receive include washi tape, stickers, pens, and other paper goodies.

Everything came neatly packed in a white cardboard box with the Busy Bee Stationery Box logo.

The August Busy Bee Stationery Box theme is “Willow” and features items from the One Canoe Two Willow Collection. This is such a lovely theme featuring greens, pinks, and gold colors with floral prints that is so fitting for the beautiful late summer/early fall days.

Inside the box is a card with this month’s theme.

Here is a closer look at this month’s Busy Bee Stationery Box:

Willow Sticker Sheet

The first item in the box is a sheet of stickers. These stickers are perfect for floral themed journal spreads. I am in love with the butterflies and rose gold accents. Included are also some sayings like “Be Kind” and “Find Joy in the Ordinary” to cheer yourself up and to remind yourself of life’s blessings.

Willow Paper Pad

The next item is a paper pad containing 36 sheets of patterned paper with similar colors and motives as the sticker sheet. There are 2 sheets for each design. I love these patterned papers for decorating my planner, and also as a backdrop to add some color to my product photography!

Willow Washi Tape Set

This box came with not one, but eight rolls of washi tape! I use washi tape for everything from journaling to gift wrapping, and am so happy to add these to my collection. The tapes came in a variety of widths and colors that are fitting to this month’s theme.

Here is a closer look at them. My favorite is the pink tape with the pretty butterflies.

Willow Pen Set

Also included is a set of 5 pens to use in your journaling and note-taking! The pens have colors matching this month’s theme. While this is not as exciting as the other items, I am so glad to have a set of pretty pens. I always have a pen in each of my bags and purses that I misplace all the time, so these will come in handy as replacements.

Willow Embellishments

The final item is a pack of embellishments for adding some pretty accents to your scrapbooks and planners. The pack contains 16 embellishment pieces in wooden leaves and rose gold paper clips, as well as some pink sequins. This is such a fun item! I cannot wait to use the pink sequins to decorate some greeting cards.

Busy Bee Stationery Box Review August 2020 – Final Thoughts

The August Busy Bee Stationery Box is so well curated with a variety of items that fit the theme. I am in love with the pink, gold, and green color scheme. The paper pad and washi tapes are my favorite items this month, but I also really appreciate having a set of good quality pens. I am looking forward to using these items in my planner pages this month! This is the perfect subscription box for planning and journaling enthusiasts.
