What If Stress Relief Came in a Box?
The Artful Parcel is more than a painting kit: it’s a monthly experience. With quality supplies, step-by-step tutorials, and a supportive community, you’ll rediscover the peace and joy that comes from creating with your own two hands.
Why I Created This Box
Hi, I’m Cindy Strong
For decades, creativity has been my safe space, first in the beauty industry, now through digital art, social media and building online businesses.
I’ve seen how powerful it is when you take a break from the chaos of work, stress, and deadlines, and make something with your hands.
For years, painting and creating have been my way of recharging. When the noise of business gets too loud, I pick up a brush, and suddenly the stress melts away.
That’s why I created this subscription box; not just as another product, but as an experience.
I wanted to give my friends, colleagues, family, and fellow entrepreneurs a way to tap into that same joy.
Because let’s be honest: when you’re building a business, it’s easy to lose yourself in the hustle.
However, carving out time for creativity gives you balance, perspective, and even fresh inspiration for your work.
So, here’s the truth: as entrepreneurs, we’re constantly creating for others.
This box is about creating for yourself. It’s a way to recharge, reconnect with your hands and your soul, and discover how rewarding it feels to create something beautiful, just because you can.
This isn’t just a painting kit. It’s a reminder that your soul deserves as much attention as your goals.
And I can tell you from experience: it’s so rewarding.
The Healing Power of Creativity
For as long as humans have existed, we’ve turned to art as a way to process life, from cave paintings to Renaissance masterpieces to the doodles on the corner of a notebook.
Creativity has never just been about the finished product. It’s about the act itself: using your hands, slowing down your mind, and letting your soul breathe.
Today, our world is busier and noisier than ever. Especially for entrepreneurs, it feels like there’s always another notification, another deadline, another fire to put out. That constant pressure leaves little space to simply be.
That’s where art comes in. Studies show that even 45 minutes of creative activity can reduce cortisol (the stress hormone), improve focus, and spark the kind of fresh thinking that leads to your next big idea.
Creativity isn’t a luxury. It’s fuel for your brain, your business, and your well-being.
The Artful Parcel isn’t just about painting. It’s about giving yourself permission to play, to rest, and to reconnect with the part of you that thrives when life slows down.
Each month’s box is your dose of peace, joy, and possibility delivered right to your door.
What’s Inside Your Box
Every Artful Parcel is carefully curated so you can open it up and start creating immediately — no extra shopping trips, no guesswork, no cheap supplies. Just high-quality materials and step-by-step guidance to help you relax and paint with confidence.
Here’s what you’ll find in your first box:
🖌️ A Full Set of Quality Brushes - not flimsy starter brushes, but durable, reliable tools you’ll use again and again.
🎨 A Fresh Paint Palette - ready to mix, blend, and keep your colors organized.
🖼️ Canvas or Canvases - sized perfectly for each month’s projects.
🌈 All the Paints You’ll Need - vibrant acrylics in the exact shades required, no running out to the craft store.
🪄 Protective Table Cover - because creativity is fun, but messes aren’t.
📖 Step-by-Step Instructions - clear, easy to follow, and beginner-friendly.
🎥 Exclusive Video Tutorial - paint right alongside me (or at your own pace).
✨ Everything in One Box - just open it up and start painting immediately.
Every month after that, you’ll continue to receive everything you need for 1–3 brand-new projects. No repeats, no fillers — just fresh, inspiring creations designed to spark joy and give you a much-needed outlet for your soul.
