Favorite item is the dust bag. One of my favorite all time colors and it matches my most used product, the pencil case. The bag it a bit large, practically. I fell that it should have a small carry handle. Love how you pointed out yet another quality control error (that C&P decided to just go with it! The small squares fit the monthly boxes in the A5 spiral. (Which really isn’t commonly called spiral. I do which they would produce a traditional spiral) **The time block pad and acrylic calendar will go into a swap box. I’m not sure that I will use them**
We usually get spoiled for Ashley's birthday and the CP anniversary. I saw the sneaks for the May today and the grid items are looking good. I love a good grid layout. My favorite is grid and then dot grid. LOL. I am hoping we get some amazing pens too. I know the pens aren't everyone's thing, but I truly missed them this month.
I love this box, not gonna lie but I wish I had not received 2 blue pens. Maybe one in a different color? Also wish the acrylic board had a stand to it? I thought it did. :(
A stand would have been great. I was watching another UA-camr and she indicated that hers was already scratching so if you have it in a high traffic placement on your desk it may not stand the test of time. I also saw Iesha posted an acrylic stand from Amazon so I may go that route.
I think the names of the pens are listed on the package they came in. One is a paint marker, one is a dry erase. My marker is dark red, and the other one is the same blue as yours. I love the olive metal clips and the green pouch. ❤
Thanks for the info! I noticed that but it wasn't really detailed. I still miss the blog. It had all the details for all the products. different colors would have been great. Even though I love blue the blue marker looks more dark grey. I need to try it on a white board or the acrylic. Olive clips definitely indent your paper so be aware just in case it bothers you.
@@lifewithnia6982 I agree, I miss the blog and details too! Tried the marker on the acrylic calendar and I find it too thick for the daily squares. I had gotten a .7mm white Posca from Amazon that I like much better.
Ooooh magenta sounds nice.....I would love to see that. I bet it is beautiful. Sometimes I wonder if shop owners know I love blue. Or if I just get lucky?
I missed the announcement about them changing the pen subscription…. I just opened my box and was looking around for the separate pen set, and didn’t find it. In all honesty I’m annoyed because I paid for there to be a specific pen subscription component.
They sent an email with a video on 2/21 if you want to go back and find it for all the details. In all honesty, I didn't even watch the video. I read the email and calculated how much more it was going to cost me. For one of my boxes, I was still grandfathered in to the old price so it was a $20 price jump OUCH. I am still using Luxe bucks every month so I am essentially paying $20 more per month total for both boxes without the pens anymore, which makes me a little sad because I do love the pens but I also think this month may not have been a good introduction to what we will receive for pens on an ongoing basis. I am hoping for amazing pens in May!
Hi, as a former pen and stationnary subscriber i am a bit disappointed about the fact there was 2 markers. A mix would have been great ☹️. Please excuse my english, i am a French subscriber 😅
I felt the same way. I’m still waiting for my box but I see a couple videos with the markers for the reusable calendar. I think it’s great to have those markers but I don’t think that should have been the only set of pens.
I don't mind the 2 markers, but I also would have liked a pen. I love trying all the different pens. I was revisiting some and I set up some new storage and I fell in love with another one that I hadn't really cared for mainly because I don't like the barrel color, but when I tried it again I thought oh wow this pen is amazing. It will be in the summer planner sesh box - wink wink.
Oh no. Not even the pouch? I always say I am going to destash the items I don't love and every time I go to the destash group to post I am genuinely terrified I am going to post something wrong and collect 50 lashes....... rule follower syndrome I suppose. LOL
For the inserts I like to show both sizes (I receive HP Mini and Half Letter). Also, prior to this box one had a pen subscription and one didn't. They package both of my boxes together and I don't open anything or go through it beforehand so I have no idea what is inside each pouch until I unbox real time while recording. And as mentioned, the pen colors may not be in the same in both boxes.

A handle would have been really nice. I have my iPad chilling. I can't wait to travel with it. It is perfect for my commuter bag too.
I miss the pens !! I prefer having more pens than more bags
I am missing the pens too. I hope we get some really good ones for the May box.
Hi Nia. Thanks for sharing. It looks like May and June boxes will be stuffed. I saw a peak for June and I can not wait to see more.

I'm glad Ashely is helping me with my pen/pencil addiction!
I am all for the help but I need her to ease off my neck lol
If I just had to pick a favorite I must say it’s the quilted bag. I see myself purchasing another one 😂😂
I am loving the bag. It is the perfect home for my iPad

I received an M865 Magenta Winsor & Newton Promaker. Maybe they know your favorite color. I like the Olive Case and Priority Stickers.

I was not a fan of this box and I selling the entire box in the detash group.

@@lifewithnia6982 Especially the pouch.
What’s the point of opening both boxes if they are the same thing? Genuinely asking
Some people got different pens/markers and I believe the color block stickers also
