The Offline Box
Less screen.
More life.
A monthly box filled with things to make, grow, read, cook and try — made for spending less time scrolling and more time actually living.
★★★★★ “I cannot believe how much was in it.”

“Wow! Adore it! Something sort of magical and sentimental and special about it all.”

Why it matters
You keep meaning to put the phone down.
But the day disappears anyway. Two more hours gone to the scroll, the book still face-down on the nightstand, the friend you meant to write to. That's not a willpower problem.
The apps are built to be endless. Your evenings aren't. The Offline Box gives you the other thing. Something real, finite and yours, so putting the phone down finally has somewhere to go.
Remember having hobbies? Making something just because. Reading somewhere other than your phone. Growing something badly. Trying a recipe you would never normally make. Learning something completely unnecessary.
Every month we send you a box full of reasons to put the phone down and get into something real.
Only from us
Three things you can't get anywhere else.
One
The Magazine
Written and photographed by us, built around that month's theme, with a letter from us inside.
Two
The Manuscript
A story you help write. One chapter a month, arriving sealed, and a vote on where it goes next.
Three
The Passport
Twelve months, a record of yours. It comes with your first box and you fill it in as you go.
The range
You never quite know what you're going to get.
Make. Read. Grow. Cook. Write. Wander.
You won't know exactly what's coming. That's half the fun.
Past editions
No two boxes are the same.
July — the winter issue
August — clay, ceramics and the last of winter
A new theme every month, so no two boxes are ever the same
“The Manuscript is the best idea. I could not put it down — then my 12 year old read it, and got my 13 year old into it too.”

A perk of membership
And if you missed one…
The Box Library keeps every edition we’ve made. A past box costs $129 on its own. Members pay $99, the same as their monthly box, all year round. Because sometimes you see an old box and think: I want that one too.
- Members pay $99 — $129 to anyone else
- No promise a given edition appears — some sell out for good
- Each edition is made once and never reprinted

The one rule
You don't have to be any good at it.
This isn't self-improvement. Nothing in the box needs tracking, optimising or turning into a side hustle. The pot can come out crooked. The bread can come out flat.
It still counts. It was your evening, and you spent it doing something instead of watching someone else do it.
No surprises
This isn't another thing to optimise.
No streaks. No apps. No homework. No pressure to be good at anything.
It's simply a box full of good reasons to do something else.
Twelve months of it
Before you ask
Questions
When will my first box arrive?
We deliver Australia-wide. Once your box is on its way, we’ll let you know.
What do I get each month?
A new theme every month, with a handful of real things to make, grow, read, cook and write, plus a brand-new issue of the magazine with a letter from us inside. The mix changes each month, so no two boxes are the same.
Can I cancel?
Cancel anytime through your account, or reply to any email and we will do it for you. No phone calls, no guilt. Cancel before your next charge and you won’t be billed again.
What if it isn’t right?
Tell us and we will refund you.
When am I charged?
You are charged today when you join, then on the same date each month. Your price stays $99 for as long as you are a member.
Do you post everywhere in Australia?
Yes, anywhere in Australia — delivery is included in the $99, so there is nothing added at checkout. (We’re Australia-only for now.)
Can I gift one?
Absolutely. Use the same checkout and add the recipient’s address and a note, or write to us and we’ll arrange a gift card.
