SPOILER ALERT | MARCH 2024 Subscription Box UNBOXING

[@ArcherandOlive]

Which is your favorite item in the March 2024 subscription box?

[@VeryCrazyBae868]

There is something special about each of those notebooks. It’s so hard to pick!

[@sharynboudreau3937]

Brown Wrapped Notebook for flower pressing, leaf and clover presses plus animal shots. Beautiful! I love the look of the torn edges. I love fountain pens, and I look forward to playing with them! Fantastic box for both art and journaling! Once more you hit it out of the park!!! 🙂

[@lorasilagy7665]

I honestly don't think I can pick a favorite this time. I just kept gasping and tiny clapping the entire time. 3 notebooks! And each one is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous...and different...and yet still so complementary of the others. And the pen set! And wide washi that is SO beautiful!! I hope mine gets here soon!!! You guys are amazing.

[@bethlindner-thaddeus7557]

I have to wait until I have them in my hands before I can pick! I am in love with this box.

[@stephaniepalmatier3049]

B6 notebook

[@CindyChamberlain-i7u]

I don't know if it is just me, but I have absolutely loved, loved, loved, the last three subscription boxes. Either you ladies have really upped your game or the aesthetic just coincides with my personal taste to a tee. Either way, I am so excited for mine to arrive.

[@ArcherandOlive]

So happy you've been loving them 💕

[@dinosaur2025]

LOVE these!! And I am begging you guys to consider releasing some real leather notebooks!! They are more durable and more environmentally friendly (vegan leather is basically just plastic - made w petrochemicals) You could even just launch one to see how it goes. I would totally pay the higher price for a beautiful heirloom quality leather notebook!! (in fact, I already do with other makers!)

[@amywon4794]

Agreed!! These are gorgeous and would love to see real leather. We really don't need more plastic circulating and killing marine animals 😢. BUT there are enviromentally friendlier vegan leather that's not plastic based. Maybe can explore that?

[@warriorthu]

Those notebooks are all going to stay in their boxes because they are BEAUTIFUL, and I will totally get notebook paralysis. I will only occasionally take them out to gently stroke the covers.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Noooo you gotta use them! Makes them even more beautiful

[@mandyfrench3448]

Every. Single. Notebook. They are absolutely gorgeous. Also - the color scheme of everything. This entire box makes my heart happy - can't wait to get it!

[@ericawarren]

Fly high Archer, sending my love to Bonnie, Olive, and her family as well as the A&O fam 💕

[@ArcherandOlive]

Thank you 💕

[@punkoigirl]

Oh noooo! That sounds terrible! I was weird out with the warehouse moving and the delays, but that is very sad :( 😞

[@sarakdonovan]

This and the last 2 sub boxes have just hit it right out of the park. I love the aesthetics of each one and all the goodies included. The journals in this box particularly are so stunning!!

[@miniaturebirble1895]

I’ve been desperate for a nice off white journal for exactly this purpose, but the other two journals are also SO GOOD 😭 And fountain pens??? So excited to try all of it. Field notes and nature journaling is my favorite aesthetic and this box hits so hard! Maybe I’ll finally use the flower press from forest heirloom Honestly tempted to buy multiples of this box… Say No To This is playing so loudly in my brain right now 😂

[@ArcherandOlive]

Ah this box is made for you!! 💕

[@anastasiajahadi4874]

What a great box - everything is so beautiful. Well done!

[@momonomono]

FOUNTAIN PENS!!! I'm so incredibly excited for those

[@AmberUnfinished]

I love the spine decoration, but that sketch book…when I say I gasped when you opened that…😍😍. I don’t even sketch…now I gotta learn how to!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Right?! Bonus perk of the box - you get to try something new!! 💕

[@SallySueSaywhatagain]

Oh, hard same for me! I don't know how to use the dang thing, but it's so beautiful I'm going to have to figure it out!!

[@heidifinch2817]

Absolutely beautiful!! I CANNOT wait to get mine. I am most excited to try the fountain pen and inks because I adore fountain pens, but the whole box looks amazing.

[@girlscarf]

My package arrived today and it legit feels like christmas in march. The navy a5 journal with the deckled edges is even lovelier in person!!!!!!!!! I cant stop running my hands over the cover. The vegan leather is totally differnt from their other vegan covers, it feels like suede kinda.. And the inset design is beautiful. I LOVE that theres a design on the back. I almost prefer it without the gold but honestly both sides are great. No notes, except I want more journals like this with pure white paper. :D Thanks for making my day Archer and Olive. Yall have done it again.

[@ericawarren]

I cannot pick a favorite from this box, this whole box is my favorite! 🌹

[@dianagable6640]

The green B6 is my favorite because It's green and B6 is my current favorite size. Second is the stickers. I just love stickers a lot. I kind of wish the A5 notebook cover matched the box it came in. That muted mint color is so beautiful.

[@ArcherandOlive]

That would have been beautiful too!!

[@ysucae]

yess that green would've been so pretty...

[@angelikaleckie6373]

I can’t wait to get mine! You overdid yourself !!! Everything looks so beautiful! 😍

[@jenniferdavis9366]

so happy kraft paper is making a return!

[@ArcherandOlive]

yes so excited for this one!

[@juliapeterson9650]

The field journal makes my heart so happy!!!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Ah so glad to here it! What will you use it for?

[@mmoranmacias11]

I received mine today and the items are beautiful! These last boxes have been amazing! Great improvement!

[@lauribanks53]

Guess it is time to email customer service, mine isn't even showing shipped yet.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Boxes are shipping throughout the weekend. If you don't get a notification by monday please do reach out!

[@JadeCypher125]

How can I even pick a favorite? Everything is amazing! Can't wait for mine to arrive 🥰

[@ArcherandOlive]

Too true! Boxes shipping out as we speak hope it gets to you soon!!

[@SpicyAir]

I was having a horrible day at work, but then got notified of this video and now I’m super excited!! Looking forward to trying out the fountain pen and vegan journal! I can hardly wait

[@ArcherandOlive]

You got this! Hope this box gives you a distraction from work 💕

[@litamohr7227]

I love everything! So happy you included labels for the pens… Can’t wait to get my box 💕

[@ArcherandOlive]

Yay! Thank you!

[@punkoigirl]

Yesss, they also did it in the last box, and I am also incredibly happy. I tried stickering them myself, but the stickers kept peeling off. The ones they included are absolutely PERFECT!!

[@charlenevsmith]

Just got mine today! Love the theme. So excited about the fountain pen and THREE inks! Love the washi style. And that blue notebook is GORGEOUS.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@happyplanner_jana]

My most favorite box EVER ❤️❤️❤️ love everything, especially the dark blue A5 💙 (smooth vegan leather cover, amazing design 😍🤩🥰) and the B6 💚 Thank you for this wonderful box ❤️

[@tarapreston4143]

Love this box! I can't choose a favorite. I have been wanting to try the A&O sketchbooks, but as I don't sketch didn't want to purchase one. This is a great excuse to try them. I would love to see more stuff embossed in silver verses gold on occasion. Just for those of us that prefer it. Have a great day!

[@K-Bcreates]

Got mine today! Each item is absolutely gorgeous and I am so excited to use them all!!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@mybabypenguin1]

Wow, this is an amazing box, everything is beautiful. I'm excited for the fountain pen, but I love everything.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Thank you so much!

[@Jenscraftsandjournals]

Just signed up! This is my first Archer and Olive Order. Beautiful collection. Can’t wait! Looking forward to trying the new Notebooks.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Welcome aboard! Hope you love this box 💕

[@hollyoberhansly2303]

I have gotten the last five subscription boxes, I have loved them all, but this is by far the best. ❤️❤️❤️. Yours is the only subscription box that I recommend to people.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Oh thank you! So happy you like them 🥰

[@suzannmowery5372]

I love the blue notebook a lot!!

[@rhandalopez4776]

Love this entire box. 😍😍😍 I was able to sign up today. Whew! 😅 My favorite is the blue notebook and the fountain pen 🥰 can’t wait to receive the box. Woohoo!!!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Yay! Thank you!

[@deniserhk]

So lovely! I’m very excited to get my box. I’m thinking the field notes book will be my favorite, but I want to gets hands on before I decide. The color scheme is to die for! And the ink colors… I’m so excited!!

[@amywon4794]

I love all the notebooks, soooo gorgeous, especially the deckled edge notebook and field sketchbook! I'm loving the expansion into NON dot grid notebooks/sketchbooks and different colored papers! Everything is exquisite here. Excited for the fountain pen and ink!! Would love to see explorations of more sustainable, non plastic-based vegan leathers! Can't wait to get mine!

[@brittfox9038]

I love all the things but especially that it's nature themed with all the earthy spring tones. If I had to pick an actual item then I'd probably say the field notebook. It's different and I'm looking forward to sketching in it.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Super excited for that one too!

[@virginiasteckart]

Obsessed with everything but especially the Naturalist notebook! I just signed up as a new subscriber and it took so much willpower to not order two boxes. Please please make more ivory page notebooks!!

[@girlscarf]

the ruler!!! the markings it lines up with the dot grid perfectly!!! the scallopped edge is perfectly 2 dot grids apart!!! yESS!!!!!! my life is complete

[@ArcherandOlive]

Haha so happy you spotted this!!

[@asiazanders3842]

These are my colors! My heart! I am so ordering this on Tuesday as a birthday gift for myself. ❤

[@ArcherandOlive]

Ah happy birthday!!

[@asiazanders3842]

Thank you!

[@tracy.m.alexander]

The VALUE of this box is whoaaaa So excited to receive it! My favorite item is the craft field sketchbook! Wow, I can just imagine taking my white charcoal and soft pencils out for plein air sketching in there 🌳 🍃 🦋

[@ArcherandOlive]

Oh that sounds perfect!!

[@aileenfernandez7848]

Super excited for the sketchbook! I love, love, love the design. Plus it's a kraft paper sketchbook! I hope you guys sell it out of the box in the future after I finish using this one!

[@steffymuze]

You guys are killing me! I just said, no more birthday shopping then you go and show me all the pretty. And I'm a fountain pen fan to put mildly 💜 I can't choose but probably the B6 and inks.

[@susiebolt4021]

I never had an interest in the sub boxes before this one, but I swooned over the fountain pen.

[@Emily_M81]

I opened this today with you :D This is so good. I have many fountain pens already, and a LOT of ink bottles. The green ink is so nice, it's not like any of my other greens and reminds me of a darker Walk the Dog by Colorverse. I really like the size of the B6, too. A5s are great, but the extra compactness is definitely appreciated :) Judging by the sticker colors, one of the other colors looks like it could be very close to Colorverse's Rainy Day, which is in one of my pens right now. I think the pen and B6 are my favorites. The pen's nib is... kinda between my fine and medium Platinum Curidas pens, so it's fine without being 'scratchy' and it's nice to write with. I'll be keeping this pen with the green B6 :) The metric ruler is definitely appreciated as well :)

[@sanagaribaldi3794]

I have been wanting to return to Archer & Olive subscription boxes and didn't get back to ordering again last month. I missed this! I MISSED THIS!!!! I LOVE everything in this box and I am hoping at least some of these items show up in the shop OR there are other boxes hiding somewhere!!! GAH!!!!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Ah so sorry! Watch out for June, we're very excited for this one!!

[@raycuriel]

These are so gorgeous!! I am begging for some graph paper notebooks !!

[@janethughes7661]

This might be one of my favorite boxes! Can’t wait to get it!

[@suzannesonnier2496]

Absolutely fabulous box! Hope Bonnie is ok - it’s weird not to hear her voice… Heidi did a fine job! 😻😻😻

[@tirarosaurioreads]

Omg that Naturalist notebook is to die for. I am in stop buy after my Bee bujo purchase but otherwise I'd be getting this!

[@LaurenMilla]

I might have to use the B6 as my regular journal and see how that goes. I'm normally a B5 person with various Dutch doors, but I tried an A5 and liked it. Now I do a lot of my normal bullet journal things digitally but still need some form of hand writing when doing planning and task management. A smaller size could work. Very excited for this box! I paused my subscription for a LONG time but the last box got me back and I didn't even know what this box would be but decided not to pause and I'm so glad I didn't. So good!

[@ArcherandOlive]

So good to have you back! I'd love to hear how the B6 works for you!

[@TheAquamarine4]

I’m so glad you guys added the newer sneak peak of the boxes because while plenty of people will love these items i only like maybe one thing here and i especially don’t like wide washi tapes. Happy for anyone who got this but so glad i don’t have to scramble for an idea of what to do with stuff i wouldn’t enjoy using and that you make these videos so i won’t have to wonder if i missed on anything:)

[@evetterodriguez]

💖💖💖the field sketch notebook is my absolute favorite thing; but, I love the whole box. Can't wait. Thanks for the unboxing💖💖💖

[@ArcherandOlive]

Mine too! You're so welcome!

[@katherinevickers4825]

This box is fantastic! I can’t wait to get mine, all these colors are beautiful . I have been wanting to try a fountain pen and ink so I am pretty excited about that- the notebooks are all amazing and unique so it’s really a hard to choose. Love the nature theme.

[@cvvzdesigns]

I really hope that Mark does a tutorial video with the pen and inks, as that's right up his alley! I'm excited to have them, but have never used something like them before and need all the help we can get. Haha

[@ArcherandOlive]

We hope so too! We will also have a beginners tutorial going live next week 💕

[@JennetRaeDesigns]

Wow!!! Beautiful!

[@annettefertitta6868]

I love that the A5 is actually a sketchbook!

[@wendyvancraen]

Oh my gosh! This is a such a gorgeous subbox. 😍 So happy with the sketchbook. ❤❤❤ Can’t wait to receive it. 🎉❤😊

[@ArcherandOlive]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@thanksmom2023]

My husband and I unbox my boxes together. We both love the notebooks and I have a feeling the fountain pen will be relocated to his office. Will you please do a video on filling and cleaning it? Thanks!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6Wyq5d5m51lZ9k

[@justjane922]

Excited for all the items! A couple of them I immediately thought of my son in law (fountain pen and field journal). Father’s Day gift headed his way!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Oh what a great idea! Hope he loves it :)

[@tracyyoon127]

Wow 😮 I gasped when she opened the B6. Love the details and I also don't have that size so would love to see it. Can't wait to see everything of course!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Ah amazing I hope you enjoy the size!

[@吧啦吧唧]

I’m really looking forward to receiving my box! So pretty!

[@yogirl74]

I am so in love with this box. I can't even pick a favorite item.

[@ArcherandOlive]

we feel you!!

[@selinasnowdon2834]

This box is beautiful, the fountain pen well in high school I was banned from using a fountain pen as I had ink everywhere

[@cindylake7193]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@kavettahulse]

The fountain pen and the brown vegan leather notebook. This may be my favorite sub box yet. I missed out on all of the cabinet of curiosities items I wanted so I am grateful for this box.

[@Mkjones0503]

I love fountain pens, I’m super excited for that. However, the journals are absolutely gorgeous and I can’t wait to use and display them.

[@ArcherandOlive]

Yay! Thank you!

[@martam3103]

I always thought 112 pages in B6 was such a rip off, nice to see 160pages! 👍

[@ArcherandOlive]

Many people like the small sizes being more compact in all directions! But we love seeing the excitement for the bulkier minis we've been trying out!

[@mb3938]

I love the extra pages!!

[@girlscarf]

I'll be honest, when I saw the spoiler alert first look image for the sub box with all the florals and collagey typewriter text on parchment, I was nervous this wouldn't be for me. I nearly cancelled my subscription, but decided to stick with it because I've loved Archer and Olive products for years now, and I adored the last sub box so much (celestial wonders sub box legit felt like it was custom made for me!) Boy oh boy am I glad I stuck with it- this box looks amazing! From the field notebook and two journals, the gorgeous art deco packaging, the green toned acrylographs, and the clear ruler-- I'm feeling just as excited about this box as celestial wonders. I was worried this box would have collagey, cluttered, flowery and overly feminine designs (which is a lovely aesthetic but just not for me.) I'm very happy that its more neutral, featuring leaf motifs, minimalist designs, with greens, golds, beiges, and browns. Its really lovely. The only items I'm not jumping out of my seat for are the washi tapes and stickers. The vintage floral wallpaper and collage typewriter text washis are just not for me. I don't like washi tapes with text on them, but thats just my personal taste. The tapes and stickers look high quality and I am sure they will be adored by someone out there. The items I am most excited about are the a5 notebook (I'm so happy when the sub boxes have an a5 notebook), b5 notebook with the extra pages, and the ruler. I audibly gasped when the b5 notebook cover was revealed- it is beautiful. I'm excited about the ruler because its clear. I had trouble using the metal stencil from their last sub box, and I think this new clear acrylic ruler will fix the alignment usability issues I was running into. I can't wait for my box to arrive. Archer and Olive really spoils us.

[@ArcherandOlive]

It's so lovely to feel your excitement through this comment! Hope you have fun with all the items (and find someone to gift the washi and stickers to!).

[@daisyl8]

@girlscarf If you ever consider selling the washi tape, I would definitely be interested in purchasing those! Those are absolutely some of my favorite designs. I was hoping the box was a little more along that theme. I loved the Celestial theme too!

[@jenniferr9998]

Beautiful box!

[@wendyrobards9089]

I cannot wait to get my box! I love everything…I think this will be my favorite box of all as I nature journal using ink and watercolor. That field note book….❤️❤️❤️

[@ArcherandOlive]

Yay so happy to hear that! Thank you!

[@4.5mm]

Excited for the B5. Please make more chunky versions of the smaller notebooks sizes!

[@satella4583]

The green B6 I NEED to get!!!

[@cathydecker4410]

I save all of the boxes too!😅

[@Auctophantasia]

I'm so excited for this box! But this is the fourth blue A5 journal we've gotten in a row. Can we please get another color for the next A5 sub box journal? I'm begging you. I'd even take yellow at this point.😅 (Yes, the one from the December box was periwinkle and looks purple, but the pages are navy, and periwinkle is technically a shade of blue, so...)

[@ArcherandOlive]

Noted! Blue was a landslide winner when we surveyed our audience last year so it is a popular theme in our releases. But always love a change too 😻

[@christinemay4129]

What a great box. Can't wait to receive mine and try the fountain pen and inks. 🌸🌼🥀💐🌻

[@ArcherandOlive]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@cici2252]

Gorgeous!! Thank you. Wondering if you can watercolor on the pages in the notebooks?

[@ArcherandOlive]

Yes lots of people use watercolor on our notebooks, you just have to be mindful of how much water you use!

So glad you think so! 💕

[@kenishawhite4874]

I'm really going to like this one as well. This will be my second subscription box and I have not been disappointment yet. I'm so interest in the sketch book as I never had one before so I would love to see ideas on what people use it for. But if I'm being honest. I'm interest in everything lol

[@ArcherandOlive]

So happy to hear that!!

[@jessicasblack]

I've been waiting for B6 to get more than 112 pages!

[@amieparham7657]

To be honest, I am not a fan of the chunky B6. I'll have to get it in my hands to decide if I like it, but I prefer the smaller, thinner books myself. They're lighter and easier to throw in a small purse and go!

[@DvorahDavida5778]

B6 !!!! One of my favorite sizes !

[@ArcherandOlive]

It's Bonnie's current fave too!!!

[@DvorahDavida5778]

There's something intimate about a B6. But big enough to write comfortably in too. They just hit right for me. 💗💗@@ArcherandOlive

[@aliciaobrien356]

I’m a calligrapher and can’t wait to check out the fountain pen and inks. Will the inks also work with a dip pen or only fountain?

[@ArcherandOlive]

yes they will definitely also work with a dip pen!

[@Telkana806]

I'm so excited about the fountain pen! Do the ink colors have names?

[@ArcherandOlive]

We didn't assign any, what would you name them??

[@Telkana806]

Is the A5 deckle edge plain or dot grid?

It is dot grid!

Can a new notebook be inserted in the vegan leather cover (if that one is ever filled up?

What is the gsm weight of the kraft sketchbook. I dont think the video says

[@ArcherandOlive]

It is 112 pages of 160gsm kraft paper 💕

Ah no! The team will be sure to make that right for you 💕

[@tlembro]

Question: is the paper of the A5 decile edge book…..slightly rough or smooth?

[@ArcherandOlive]

Feels smooth in my opinion!

[@docpeeps]

Fountain pen!!! And ink?!? Soooo beautiful. Is the ink waterproof or resistant so I can use my watercolors with it?

[@ArcherandOlive]

These inks are water-based and not particularly water-resistant when you watercolor over them (thank you for giving us a reason to test it out). I did test a calliograph over the top as well and it didn't bleed or smudge at all, so you might play around and see what you can get.
