If your hobbies include writing, bullet journaling, memory keeping, drawing, or you have a general love for stationery happy mail, then the Archer & Olive quarterly subscription box may be perfect for you. Every three months, you get a box of stationery goodies that range from notebooks to pens and other accessories.

If you’re familiar with Archer & Olive products, then you know that quality ranks high for them, and the March subscription box certainly delivered. If you’re not familiar with Archer & Olive products, you may be interested in my post An Honest Review of Archer and Olive Dot Grid Notebooks.

The March 2021 Archer & Olive subscription box (their second release so far) was priced at $70USD with products valuing over $175. The box weighed almost 9lbs!

Here’s what’s generally included in the Archer & Olive quarterly subscription box:

Subscription Box Contents

  • At least one limited edition ethically made notebook that’s exclusive to the subscription box
  • Limited edition items along with never before released products (including washi tape, pens, notebook covers, and so on)
  • A 3-month subscription to Club A&O which includes access to an exclusive Facebook group and content created by the Archer & Olive Design Team specifically for the Club
  • Instruction on how to use the items in the box to create your own unique art

Now let’s get to the fun part – the unboxing of the March 2021 subscription box:

Unboxing the March 2021 “Journey Box”

What was included in this journey themed box:

  • 8.5″ x 11″ Dot Grid Notebook (a never before released size)
  • 8.5″ x 11″ Lined Notebook (a never before released size)
  • Spiral Travel Notebook
  • Clear acrylic stamps (never before released product type)
  • Tote bag (never before released product type)
  • Sticker sheets
  • Acrylographs (never before released colours)
  • Acrylic stamp blocks
  • Gold & Black ink pads
Three Archer & Olive notebooks in red, teal, and purple

Personally, I loved every single item in the box and can envision what I will use them for. If you’re not sure what you would use the notebooks for, here are some ideas:

  • A travel journal where you can include memories of past adventures
  • A notebook to practice handwriting and hand lettering
  • Keep notes on your hobbies
  • Use it as a life scrapbook and paste photos and other memories into it
  • Use the sketchbook to doodle every day
  • Try new mediums such as watercolour or acrylic markers

I was most excited about the stamps that were included in the box because they are super functional. If you are a bullet journaler, stamping the days of the week and headers such as “to-do” would be super helpful to you.

Final Thoughts

If you are interested in a stationery subscription box with additional perks (such as an exclusive online community and blog content), then check out Archer & Olive’s quarterly subscription box. The March box was full of fun and practical goodies, and I have no doubt that the next one will be just as (or more) amazing.

    December 2022 was a huge disappointment. A teacup with no saucer (most people need another cup like a hole in the head) and worse and EMPTY tea tin. No special crafting item like stamps, bookcover, bag, etc September was great box. Dec huge rip off.
