This June (posted June 2026), we’re celebrating the arrival of summer with a playful, feel-good project bursting with colour, texture, and fruity charm. Our Strawberry Rope Pot kit is designed to be wonderfully hands-on, combining mindful making with bright seasonal inspiration to create something both practical and delightfully decorative.

In this month’s box, you’ll create your very own strawberry-inspired rope pot using soft cotton rope, vibrant red yarn, and cheerful felt embellishments. It’s a project that feels satisfying from the very first wrap, gradually building shape and structure as your pot comes to life layer by layer.

If you've bought this project, you'll find your tutorial video below (the password is on the front of the printed instructions in your box!)

What You’ll Be Exploring

This month’s project is all about texture, shaping, and slow, satisfying construction. You’ll begin by stitching your rope securely to a wooden base before carefully wrapping and building each layer to form your pot. As the shape grows, you’ll explore simple construction techniques that create a surprisingly sturdy and professional-looking result.

The rhythmic process of wrapping, stitching, and forming the pot makes this a wonderfully calming craft to settle into. There’s something incredibly satisfying about watching the rope gradually curve upwards and transform into a finished piece.

Once your pot is complete, you’ll move on to the playful finishing touches — cutting and adding felt strawberry stalks and tiny white seeds to turn your rope creation into a cheerful summer-inspired make.

Creative Freedom, Your Way

One of the loveliest things about this project is how customisable it can be. You can make your rope pot tall or short depending on how many layers you add, creating something perfectly suited to your space and style.

While we’ve embraced a strawberry theme for June, you can absolutely make this project your own. Use the felt embellishments however you like, scatter your seeds sparsely or generously, or even transform your pot into a completely different fruity creation.

You can also personalise your finished pot further with additional craft supplies from home — beads, ribbons, sequins, or embroidery details would all work beautifully to add extra character and charm.

What’s in the Box

• Soft Cotton Braided Rope
• Crimson Red Cotton Yarn
• Circular Wooden Base
• Green Felt
• White Felt
• UHU Glue
• Tapestry Needle
• Design Template

You’ll just need a few simple items from home (a pencil and scissors), and you’ll be ready for a wonderfully cosy crafting session.

A Joyful Summer Make

This project is designed to be savoured over a relaxed afternoon or spread across a few cosy creative sessions. The repetitive wrapping process feels mindful and soothing, while the bright colours and playful details bring a little burst of summer joy to your crafting table.

And once finished, your strawberry rope pot is as practical as it is cheerful. Use it to hold pens, paintbrushes, make-up brushes, or even pop a small plant pot or vase inside to brighten up a shelf or windowsill.

Whether you’re crafting in the garden sunshine or curled up indoors with a cuppa, this month’s project is all about enjoying the process and creating something that makes you smile.
