Craft Club Box Review

Inside I found:

The craft activity for this box was to make a triangle pouch. Everything I needed to make the triangle pouch is included, as well as an instruction leaflet. The supporting e-magazine was really helpful too. As well as handy pictures to help me complete the craft activity there’s also ideas for similar projects and tips on how to use the remaining stash of bits and bobs that aren’t needed for the triangle pouch.

I really like with the craft club box you don’t just get all the materials you need to make the one project, but you also get some extras too so you can start to build your supply.

All of the materials included are superb quality, colourful and I couldn’t wait to get started!

The instructions were pretty simple to follow and the pictures included were very helpful too.

The first thing I need to do was measure and cut the three fabrics into the right size.

Once I’d cut the fabric, I sewed them together.

After sewing the three strips of fabric together, I ironed them and ironed on the wadding on before cutting the fabric in half to create two squares which were then rotated and sewn together as shown in the photo below.

Now, I did get a bit carried away enjoying myself so I did forget to take more pictures, but I can assure you it really was easy to make! I simply sewed the zip on, along with the backing fabric, tidied up the edges and sewed as per the instructions. The only amendment I made was to make the hook, the suede cord, a bit shorter.

Overall, I’m really pleased with the end result! Although, it could be tidier, I think it was a learning curve and a pretty good accomplishment for me considering this is the first time I’ve made anything like this!

This triangle pouch will be the perfect place to store our twin girls hair clips or my tape measure and other crafty bits. My four year old twin girls love the triangle pouch so much, that they’ve asked me to make them one each too!

Extras


Inside Craft Club Box were some extra pieces to start building up your stash. I used the blue lace to add some extra detail to a dress that I made one of my daughters.

I think it adds a really nice touch to the dress! 

I used two of the three green buttons to add some detail to a pair of shorts that I made my other daughter, but also used the remaining green cord to create a loop on either side of the shorts so that they stayed up on her! When she grows bigger the cord can simply be removed from around the button and the shorts will grow with her.

I used the green flower material to make two pockets on the shorts.

Overall, I have to say that I absolutely love Craft Club Box! Available for just £13.00 a month, I think they’re fantastic value for money! You get so much for that, not just in terms of the materials provided, but also the accompanying e-magazine.
