1. Scrawlr Box

But what sets the Scrawlr Box apart is their ability to include basics like different colored pencils and pens in each box, while still managing to keep it interesting for old hands.
Scrawlr Box ships out around the 17th of each month and their boxes are usually filled with “mystery art supplies,” as they call it.
Along with that, each box comes with artwork from the featured artist of the month, and a written tutorial about the objects featured in the box for the month, making it easier for you to use them.
