March 2016 Cloth and Paper Stationery Box
I am officially obsessed with Cloth and Paper Co. and their gorgeous boutique paper goods and office supplies. I purchased the stationery subscription box last month after the cut-off date to receive the February box. After receiving (and loving) a couple different months of the Penspiration box, I knew I would love what ever arrived in my stationery box.
The Cost: $39.99 monthly (US) -or- $59.99 monthly (International)
First peek!! There’s chocolate in my box! Om nom nom nom…
The information sheet details all of the contents inside along with the box’s theme:
You are great at working the room, and stand out in the crowd. This month’s box will help you power forward at your event and are a perfect match to your networking skills.
Copper Page Flags | Set of 8
Discretely hold sections of your planner together with these fine metal copper flags
I have seen page flags before in book stores, which are great for use in marking important sections you’d like to go back and read later. I cannot wait to use these!
Black Skeleton Clip | 19mm clip
Paper clips are kind of my thing after pens. I have almost too many of them around my office, home, briefcase, purse… yeah, you could call me a collector. I saw these skeleton clips at the Cloth & Paper Co. store and loved them! I am so glad I have one of my very own! I just have to decide what I should clip… perhaps it shall go in my planner where I can see it daily! 🙂
Marble Jinhao X450 | 0.5mm Black Gel Pen
Super Luxe marble gel pen 0.5 mm nib and black ink, heavyweight ($15 VALUE)
This is such a gorgeous pen! The pen itself is very weighty and feels SO nice in my hands. It writes smoothly with a heavier ink flow. It appears to have a thicker nib than 0.5mm and writes with a thicker line. This pen is too pretty and I already have big plans for this beauty! 🙂
Colorful Lives Card Set | Set of 8
Matte black card set with text written in a unique UV finish with 8 black 100lb linen envelopes
I love these cards. They’re so sophisticated and are ultra luxe with the high-gloss text on the front. The back of the card is blank and the linen envelope has a great crosshatch texture. Don’t you just adore these?
“It was a pleasure meeting you” Calling Cards | Set of 20
Great for networking. Jot down a quick little note or future meetup deets.
This is my second set of calling cards this year! (The first was from my February Covet Crate.) I love the clear carrying case and simple statement on the front. Unfortunately, after owning my other set for about two months now, I realize I do not have many opportunities to utilize calling cards in my life. I will most likely be gifting these!
Event Tracker Inserts | A5 and Personal Sizes
These event inserts help you manage your costs and details for your next event
These are perfect for helping budget and organize for any upcoming events. I love that both A5 and personal sizes were included so that everyone (with customizable planners) can use the inserts. I have been brainstorming with Cloth & Paper Co. founder and super planner-guru, Ashley, about getting together a new planner setup for next year, which includes being able to use amazing inserts like these. I am currently using a great Plum Paper Designs planner, which is spiral-bound and does not allow for additional pages to be inserted. I’m thinking about holding onto these inserts until next year, since they are undated and perfect for slotting in when needed.
Famous Greeting Card | Gold Foiled Blank Greeting Card
Perfect for giving to your top clients or even a fellow #girlboss
This is such a cute card with gold foiling. I love the saying and I can think of a few girl bosses in my life that would be tickled to receive it! Both the card and the envelope are excellent quality.
Marich English Chocolates | Chocolate Toffee Almonds
Reward yourself with these premium English chocolates, you earned it
Why thank you, Stationery Box, I did earn these, didn’t I? Om nom nom. I love chocolate covered almonds AND chocolate covered toffees. These sweet treats are perfectly decadent and thankfully in a small package. I ate the entire bag in about 3 minutes tops… I regret nothing.
My Thoughts
This was my very first Stationery Box from Cloth & Paper Co. and I am so impressed. After subscribing to the Penspiration box for a few months though, and practically stalking the online store, I was not surprised at the quality. Everything C&P offers is of the highest quality and remains extremely classy and chic. I feel like I’m buying designer paper goods when I get a package from Cloth & Paper Co. and it feels amazing.
I highly recommend this subscription to anyone who is slightly (or greatly) obsessed with office supplies, stationery, and planners. This subscription truly feels like a gift when opening and would be a wonderful present for an entrepreneur or plannerista!

What do you think of my first Cloth & Paper Co. Stationery Box?
I LOVE the Marble Jinhao X450 | 0.5mm Black Gel Pen
Mmmm!! Chocolate!! And those cards are seriously gorgeous!!
This is another subscription box that I will have to look into:)
The quality of the box is amazing. All of the supplies are beautiful, especially the pen.
This would be a real nice gift for someone in their new office or a friend who just got her dream office job. Like the look of the pen and style of paper products. thanks for the review and pictures of this box
