Hello, parents and teachers – welcome to my first review post with the Mister Maker craft subscription box! If you love crafting, then you will be thrilled to receive crafting boxes right to your door!
We tested Toucan Box, so I thought – why not try this craft box as well? Mister Maker is interesting because I believe that his name makes him more interesting to boys.
He is the creator of many craft videos (check out some videos HERE), and he has paired with Toucan Box to create his own crafting box. The first box is free. You should only pay to ship.
This is the box and the contents inside:
The box has the child’s name printed on the cover, just like the Toucan Box.
It is a tad smaller and has 1 craft inside. The activity book was a nice addition, as always! It is appropriate for 3-4 year-olds. The colors were vibrant, and the quality of the printed paper was great!
Craft materials
As for the craft materials, you need to be gentle because our socks didn’t last long!
The other sticky parts for the puppet were good, and there were a lot of them to use for another craft. This part of the box was good, and they had good quality as well. However, the puppet’s eyes kept falling off, and their back was not sticky enough, so we needed to add glue.
Another thing that I like is that the box opens and gives you a picture frame with a nice design and sturdy cardboard, so you can actually reuse the box.
Finally, here are our puppets. They look pretty nice, and it was fun making them.
All in all, I am pleased with this subscription box, Mister Maker is a nice craft box, and this is mostly a positive review. We ordered 2 boxes for our neighbors (3 and 7) for different ages, and we got the same boxes. That is the only thing I didn’t like. If you are interested in affordable craft boxes, Toucan Box is also a great choice. Let me know what you think of in the comments or via the contact page. Would you order the Mister Maker craft subscription box after my review?

Thanks for the candid review. With so many great boxes out there to try it is nice to have reviews to help weed out the not so great ones.
You’re welcome!
I wish I found a review before, but since I only paid for shipping, it didn’t turn out so bad in the end.
Well doesn’t this look like so much fun. We’d love to try a box like this!!!!
I agree! This is not so much fun, but there are other boxes out there!
Try Green Box or Toucan box :)
This is really cool and I love all the different activities you can from one box.
There are better ones actually! I will review ToucanBox next time so that you can see a really quality box, which is also affordable!
Thanks for sharing an honest review. Boxes have become all the rage for pretty much anything. They can definitely be fun but it does feel like guessing most of the time.
I couldn’t agree more! I love subscription boxes, but it does feel like a roulette sometimes.
Especially when you get something you didn’t want – we got 2 craft boxes for different age, and they were completely the same…
This sounds fun. It’s something my daughter, niece, and nephew would enjoy having. Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome! If you order it, please do a review! I’m curious to see what kind of box would you get. Is it going t be the same or a different one…
I hadn’t heard of this craft subscription box before. It is hard to tell what is good and what isn’t, and it is good to hear about your experience.
I’m glad I could help! It wasn’t that terrible, but I expected a bit more anyway.
This is such a cute and fun subscription box, but I will check out Toucan box!

Make sure that you do! I have 3 Toucan boxes which are waiting to be reviewed but I don’t have enough time for it…
