It’s hard to believe we’re entering the 4th year of the Mystery Box Challenges. The first one in March of 2020 was actually the last video I completed before Finn was born, so I’ll never forget it. Courtney (Creative on the Cheap) has done a great job at keeping this going and I’m so thankful because these videos are my favorite!
This time around, my box came from Courtney (Creative on the Cheap) and I sent a box to Jay (Jay Munee DIY). And let me tell you – Courtney was NOT PLAYING AROUND! The items were RANDOM and some were difficult, but I did end up creating Summer + everyday home decor from it. Here is the full lineup for the June 2023 Mystery Box Challenge!
THE MYSTERY BOX CHALLENGE: THE RULES
Each crafter gets a name and you shop for supplies to fill a box. This time around, it was an anything-goes box, so I would go hog wild at any store for the contents of the box – 7-10 items. Then, typically, you add 2 items labeled as “challenge items.” Those are items that are tricky to DIY with. One hard rule is you must use the 2 challenge items somehow, but I always try to use all the items if I can.
Courtney then sent me a box (watch the video below to see what was inside) and then I had to craft with the contents. And that girl was ROUGH with what she sent – I swear some of my items that weren’t even challenge items were so random!
One other element that has been added to these challenges has been Courtney’s challenge she gives us each time.
This Round’s “Twist”
Courtney sent me a photo of one of her past projects and I had to recreate it from a photo. I LOVE how mine turned out – so you’ll have to watch to see what it was and how I did!
