Makrbox

This year I have focused my attention on becoming more aware of all the wonderful "makers" who live, breathe and create right in my own backyard. When choosing to purchase something I make a conscious choice to first look locally to fill my need. I realize the growing importance of reducing my carbon footprint, but equally important a ton of cool things are manufactured right here in Seattle or the Pacific Northwest. When I stumbled upon Makrbox I was ecstatic because their vision paralleled mine. 

What is Makrbox?

MakrBox is a monthly subscription box compromised of independent makers from across the Pacific Northwest. Makrbox is a fantastic way to support the local economy, encourage the manufacturing of locally made items and a great way to discover local craftspeople. 

Depending on your subscription each month you will receive 2 or 3 curated artisan products. 

The Makrbox I received included two items: letterpress notecards from Constellation and Co. and an up cycled cup from Studio Man-u-fact. Aside from these items there were also two Makers cards which talked about the artisan, their background and a little bit about their company. 

Makrbox would be the ideal gift for the person who has everything, a friend who just recently moved to the Seattle area or would be equally wonderful as a gift for yourself. I love discovering new local artisans and Makrbox does all the leg work for you. All you have to do is sign up.
