Yes Liz, it’s finally time! The mailman just delivered my “June” mystery box from ArtSnacks! I started getting these artsy boxes two months ago … how did I not know about them before!? Now, normally I’m a bit of a lone wolf, but I’ve decided to team up with ArtSnacks {aka Lee & Sarah Rubenstein – a brother and sister duo from the east coast} once a month to share the juicy goodness going on in these little boxes because, well, fresh art supplies make me giddy, and you should know about them too!

Now, I can’t very well introduce new supplies into my studio without Liz’s approval. Let’s face it, most of my art involves her in some way. So, let’s take a look at this month’s surprise supplies… I’m pretty sure she’ll love everything {but do NOT tell her about the gum ball in there!} :

Ooh boy, there were a few tense gum-related moments there, but it looks like Liz is officially in {she’s making the royal announcement above}… but to be clear, she’s still not happy about the gum. No problem, I’ll take it!

One of these boxes shows up in my mailbox every month. I never know what’s in it, but it’s always really cool, high quality art supplies that are researched and tested by Lee and Sarah. At the art store I just grab my usual go-to supplies, and head home. This way I get to discover new things that I might have missed if left to my own devices.

Wanna try it?! You can order one month at a time or sign up for 3mos, 6mos, or a full year… whatever works for you. Click here for all of the ins and outs. ps. enter coupon code thejealouscurator and you’ll receive 10% off your first month of ArtSnacks! Ok, time for me and Liz to get into the studio with all of this stuff! Have fun, and let me know if you get hooked… hashtag your box openings / what you make with, #artsnacks

In the June box: Tombow Dual Brush Pen x3, General’s MultiPastel Chalk Pencil x2, Painty FX by ZIG, ArtSnacks & Denik mini Sketchbook, and a sour gum ball! I have no idea what’s in the July box, but I can’t wait to find out!
