Neko Box - Moonlit Nights

This is the last box from Neko box and I’m sorry to see the subscription end. Their shop and Zakka Kit subscription will be continuing though so that is okay. 

So the themes of the box are moonlit nights and holiday seasons. This box is the December box.

The first thing that came out of the box was the Winter Furoshiki Cloth. I could have gotten one of two designs: Golden crane with Moon or Camellia Flowers with cat. I got the Golden crane. 

The next three things out of the box were the blue speckled bowl, the gold and blue mini cup, and the night sky plate. 

I love when I get chopsticks and these are in the color blue. 


Finally, a postcard print. This was printed on metallic gold foil. 

I’m really going to miss this box. It always had some unique and interesting pieces which I would never have chosen for myself but still ended up loving. 

Neko Box - Autumn Cats

This Neko Box is all about autumn cats. From the Japanese cultural aspect, this box includes some knowledge about Community cats and Temple cats.

The first thing that caught my eye in this box was the ornament cat. It is designed to bring good luck and fortune into a person's life (need!).

The mini Maple dish was the cutest thing ever! It comes in 3 different colors mine was green. 

The sleeping cat dish is very charming and would be a great way to display snacks. There are three different designs, the one I got I dubbed “the smug cat”.

The happy cat bowl makes me happy, it holds soup and rice really well and is pleasant to look at.

I have to admit, I still have not opened the Autumn Flower Cloth but the material is really beautiful and light.

Finally, the postcard. That card is giving me ideas for a mixed media painting and I can’t wait to start when I have time.

Zakka Kit - Edo Cats

The theme for this Zakka Kit is Edo Cats.

          I’m always interested in what supplies this box has because I can use them in many ways. The first thing that came out of the box was the Edo Fabric Pouch. I can use it to store a few pens that I need when I go to work or on a trip.

          Next up is the Edo Cats postcard by Galen Sta:Ful. This card can either be used as a print or as a postcard.

          I love the tiny note cards they sometimes include in the boxes, I sometimes use them to add special thoughts to my journal. The Cat Notecards are by Classiky and Mihoko Seki.

          I’m drowning in small notebooks but I still love it when I get them...yes I may be addicted. This is a Sou Sou Patterns Notebook by Galen Sta:Ful.

          No Zakka Kit is complete without Washi Tape and this box is no different.

          Finally, this double-sided pen from Mitsubishi. It is brown with one end being thick and the other thin.
