Such a brilliant idea, beautifully executed

Just what's needed. For Christmas my daughter bought me a subscription to Craftiosity and since January I’ve really looked forward to the beautifully wrapped boxes of adventurethat arrive.

I like most crafts and will give everything a try. It's only May and I’ve already tried a range of crafts from embroidery to paper making and candle-making. It's a joy opening the parcel and revealing the current month's project - beautifully presented and containing everything that is needed.

Such a brilliant idea, beautifully executed.

Broadening my crafting world

I have been crafting all my life - nearly 40 years and I love learning new crafts. Craftiosity has introduced me to new crafts that I have never thought of trying before. I can't wait for the next box to arrive each month!!!

10/10

I love Craftiosity because they send beautiful boxes in the post each month that are not too difficult, but also not too easy. It is perfectly pitched at people who want to 'have a go'. In addition, it gives you a range of different crafts to try out to see what you enjoy most. I have so far made macrame, cross stitch, a felt wreath, painted Christmas baubles, a wicker basket, clay modelling, needlepoint and made a clock! It is beautifully wrapped with helpful videos and lovely postcards included. I really love everything about it

Very interesting tasks

I am very pleased but this month was a basic embroidery task. I do a lot of embroidery anyway and joined craftiosity to explore other crafts. A few months prior the book covering was good because it used plastic canvas, similarly the spring wreath was novel. I always like the fact that there is extra material left over to do something else with. I now know I can adjust the kit to my liking if I want which I may do in the future.

Hi Suzanne, thanks for your feedback. I'm so pleased to hear that you've enjoyed the Needlepoint Journal and Felt Wreath kits. I'm sorry to hear that you're not as keen on this month's embroidered moon tea towel kit, we'd be more than happy to offer you a alternative replacement for this kit and we always announce the kits in advance so you can see if a project is to your liking or not, and you can easily skip projects.

I love receiving different craft kits…

I love receiving different craft kits each month. My Craftiosity subscription is one of my favourites; I enjoy attempting each craft kit, there are a variety of crafts, from embroidery to brush lettering, and their customer service is A*!

Not value for money.

I ordered the craftiosity kits as a kind of self care. The kits come beautifully presented. There are lovely little touches like the post cards that add to the overall theme of the kit. The kits in themselves are fine, but what you actually get in the kit is not good value. It's £25 for an afternoon's activity. There isn't a few extras in to get you thinking about crafting beyond the kit itself. For example this week I had an embroidery kit. I have wanted to try embroidery for ages. It's not an expensive craft. The box is £25 and it came with 1 hoop, 1 tea towel to sew onto, 1 preplanned design, 3 skeins of thread, 1 needle. They have details instructions but nothing more. I like the idea but I not keen on the pattern. There are no other ideas to work from - its very rigid. And the instructions would show you key stitches and let you practice but there aren't necessarily any items to help you grow beyond that. Artfully does a similar box. It costs a little more but you get a full kit of quality art supplies (e.g. - a full set of modern calligraphy pens, a full book of paper, a pencil, an eraser) to do that month's project plus a thick book printed on quality paper with lots of ways to use the materials. It's not so rigid and allows for the customer to play with materials and grow.

Hello, thanks for your thoughtful review. I'm pleased to hear you enjoyed the kits and liked the little extras that we include. We create for crafters at different levels of experience, so the kits are designed to make a complete project, with step-by-step photo instructions and video tutorial online (for those who do want a full walk-through), and then on the back of your instructions are 'Make It Your Own Way' suggestions to personalise the project and take it your own direction (for crafters who prefer to put their own stamp on projects). Each craft kit is designed to delight our subscribers, so we focus on providing quality tools and materials in our kits, rather than looking for the cheapest supplies.

Not worth the money

I was really excited when I was given a 3 month subscription for Christmas, advertised boxes looked great. When the 1st box arrived I was disappointed, it was called ‘needlepoint journal’ very childish and not very nice in my opinion. The 2nd was a ‘beaded hanging shelf’ different but definitely not worth the money and I have just received my 3rd, an embroidered tea towel, which will looks really nice, but you will see all the stitching on the reverse. Definitely not impressed knowing how much they cost. I would not recommend.

Hi Joanne, thanks for your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear that you've been disappointed with the kit designs. We always announce the kits in advance so you can see if a project is to your liking or not, and you can easily skip projects. It doesn't look like we had any emails from yourself / the buyer prior to this review, but if you'd like to reach out to us now at hello@craftiosity.co.uk, we'd be happy to help.

Cannot recommend.

They take money and then you don't see anything for six weeks. One never turned up and they said they'd resend. Still nothing. Also, the materials are not reflective of the price.

Excellent service

I managed to Order twice when my browser failed on me, they sorted it out so quickly with no fuss. I received my first box a back order 2 days later and now have a subscription set up as a Christmas gift. The service was excellent
