Top 5 reasons to get a painting subscription box from Creatively

So, you’ve been looking to add a new hobby or skill to your repertoire. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to give painting a shot but you’ve never known where to start.

 can open all of those doors and more. You can receive acrylic paints, painting tools, and reference images–everything you need to discover your creative side–right to your door every single month.

It’s hard to quantify the benefits of getting your very own painting subscription box, but we’re here to try.

Read on for five major benefits that you can enjoy when you sign up for a Creatively art subscription.

1. Painting can boost your mental health

Some of us get to express our creativity every day, whether at work or at home. Many of us, however, don’t feel that we have much time for creativity, and there are tons of compelling reasons to start making that time.

Participating in a creative experience like painting can for your mental health. Painting can help you release your anxiety or tap into blocked feelings. For many people, painting feels like a meditative act, allowing them to turn off their busy minds and work from the heart and imagination. 

Even doing something as simple as adopting a new hobby can improve your sense of fulfillment in life. Trying something new or returning to a former pastime can break up the daily doldrums and make you feel great about something you’ve accomplished. The best part is that there’s no pressure and that you’re painting just for you.

2. A painting subscription box can improve your skills

If you have ever wondered how long it takes to become good at a new skill, you’ve probably come across some pretty startling statistics. In fact, you may have seen the claim that it takes 10,000 hours to master something. Is this true?

The good news is that the answer is no. In order to improve your skills, all you really need are the right tools, the right guidance, and the time to focus on the task at hand.

When you learn different painting techniques and how to employ them, you can become a better painter. When you learn how to mix your paints to create subtle variations, you can unlock new doors to a unique finished product. When you practice painting by going off of a reference photo and step-by-step instructions, you can create something better than you may have thought possible.

Painting subscription boxes encourage all of these things. After a few months with your paint box subscription, you’ll have learned many of the skills you need to start painting images of your own.

3. Each box comes with everything you need

Oftentimes, people tell us that they want to start painting, but they’re not sure where to start. What type of acrylic paint and how many colors do you need? How many different brushes will you need and how do you decide on a size or type of canvas?

No need to take a trip to the art store and be overwhelmed by all the various art supplies.

A painting subscription box comes with everything you need for that month’s painting shipped right to your door. Many of these supplies, like palette knives and brushes, can be used time and time again. The best part is that you’ll receive high-quality supplies without the big price tag. 

That means that you can dip your toe in the water without over-spending on more products than you really need. Creatively provides just enough (and a little extra) to tackle a new painting experience each month.

4. Each box gives you a monthly escape

We all deserve a little me-time, but how often do we actually create it for ourselves? It’s so easy to say, “I don’t have time for self-care when I could be doing something that feels more productive.” The truth is, making time to relax and escape from the day-to-day is crucial for our well-being and our productivity.

When you have a monthly painting subscription box coming your way, you’ll feel more inclined to set aside that me-time. After all, those paintings won’t paint themselves! You can complete each painting in about one hour, so you’ll still have plenty of time for all of those other responsibilities. 

5. You don’t have to over-commit 

You can’t know how much you’ll enjoy something until you give it a shot. For some people, that notion can seem a little daunting, and we don’t blame you.

With Creatively, you don’t have to sign up for a year’s worth of boxes right away–although you always have that option. You can sign up for one box a month or you can commit to three, six, or twelve months and save even more. Plus, we’re always happy to work with you to alter your order to fit your needs, so you’ll never have to worry about over-committing before you know how you feel.
