What's in the box: Each box typically holds the supplies for one or more seasonal craft projects, such as incense cones or a decorative painting, with matching tutorials on the Pop Shop America blog.
Pop Shop America is mainly a craft, recipe and gardening blog run from Houston, and the Craft in Style Box grows out of that blog. Each month's kit comes with written tutorials on the site, often split into several parts. One October box included a project for making incense cones, and a January box ended with a light up moon painting on black canvas. That means you should expect a mix of home decor, fragrance and seasonal crafts. It is not a box devoted only to soap and candles. The variety suits people who like to try a little of everything, but if you want to build real soap or candle making skills, the range may feel too broad. The site also sells single project kits, such as a moon and stars felt mobile, and runs in person and virtual classes. Either one is a good way to try the style before you subscribe. The tone is warm and very seasonal, with lots of fall and Halloween content. The site does not clearly state the subscription price, shipping terms or how many projects come each month, so read the join page carefully before you sign up. Free tutorials and downloads let you check the quality of the instructions first.
