“...the pens all felt so hefty and well-made. I loved the color selection and variety, it wasn't just a bunch of black ink pens. I love to journal and signed up for a 3 month term. But I will definitely be checking the rest of what Cloth & Paper Co. has to offer because this was truly a special box.” - Maree H.

“Cloth and Paper is the kind of company that just makes you want to be better. A better planner, and a better person. The Asthete box is another amazing example of how to elevate your entire being and [it’s] like Christmas as I unwrapped and examined each item. The quality of the products are pure perfection and There is something that you [can] use from head to toe. There is also the bonus of learning about and supporting other businesses as well. I am so impressed with what they have come up with and cannot wait for the next installment!” - Brandelyn A.

FAQ

How do I update my planner size and type, change my payment method, or update my shipping address? You can make changes to your subscriptions from your C&P Shop Account Login: https://clothandpaper.com/account/login. Select "Manage Subscriptions" after logging into your Cloth & Paper account. You are always welcome to shoot us a message at [email protected] and we can make the changes for you as well. We’re here to help!

I’ve just updated my subscription, but I want these changes to take effect immediately. How can I ensure my box is updated for the upcoming month?

If you’ve updated your address or planner size before your box has shipped, you’ll be all set and do not need to make any further changes. We recommend also double-checking your subscription details after making changes.

If you have updated your box type (Penspiration, Planning + Stationery, or the combination box) after the renewal period, the change will not go into effect until after your next renewal (your renewal date can be found under your account), as the system does not automatically charge you for the upgrade within the current month or on any remaining months that you may have already paid for. In this case, please reach out to [email protected] and we’ll get you squared away!

I have a comment or suggestion regarding the subscription boxes! How can I submit this?

We always encourage (and love) receiving feedback from subscribers so that we can offer the best experience possible! Reach out to us at [email protected] at any time with feedback, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. If you’re especially pleased with a recent box, we’d love to receive a review!

I’ve canceled my subscription but have not received a refund for boxes I’ve already paid for. What happened?
