How to use your September 2025 Stationery Box
Okay, sticker ghouls and crafty goblins, this month’s September Stationery Box is all about Halloween, and we’ve cooked up the cutest way to put it to use: DIY paper frames and scenes! Think of them like little windows into your very own spooky-cute world. 🎃
These are super easy to make, endlessly customizable, and perfect for decorating your wall, gifting to a friend, or tucking into your junk journal. Ready to get crafty? Let’s go!
What You’ll Need:
-
Scissors ✂️

Pens (gel pens = extra cute bonus points!)
-
Cardstock paper
-
Your September Stationery Box (aka your haunted toolkit)
Step 1: Frame It Out.
Cut your cardstock down to the sizes of the frames you want. We mixed it up with different shapes and edges, then outlined them using the washi tape from the box. (Spoiler: washi tape makes everything better.)
Step 2: Build Your Base.
Grab your patterned paper pad from the box and layer scraps to create backgrounds for your frames. Trim the edges so they’re neat and ready for decorating.
Step 3: Embellish Like Crazy.
Now the fun begins! Start piling on all the good stuff: glow-in-the-dark stickers, more patterned scraps, wax seals, googly eyes, basically anything that screams “Halloween magic.” The more little details, the cuter your scene will be.
Step 4: Add the Finishing Touches.
A few doodles with your pens, a sticker star here, a spooky pumpkin there, keep layering until your frame feels just right. (Pro tip: don’t be afraid to go maximalist. It’s Halloween, after all!)
Step 5: Display & Enjoy.
Now your haunted masterpieces are ready to shine! Hang them on your wall for instant decor, pop one into happy mail, or paste them into your junk journal to remember this spooky season. 🦇✨
