2021 Holiday ShopBox: Get New Products First!

The new 2021 Hero Arts Holiday release, "Season of Gratitude", is being introduced next month and we have some exciting news – you can find a sampling of pre-release products from the new collection in stores now!

We've compiled a list of retailers who have opted to participate in our ShopBox program, which you can get HERE.

On the main tab of the spreadsheet you will find participating US stores listed alphabetically by state. International stores are listed on a separate tab of the sheet; just scroll to the bottom and click on the tab labeled "international".

Be sure to ask for the brand new early-release 2021 Holiday products at your favorite stores and tell them Hero Arts sent you!

Can't find a store near you? The ShopBox products will also be available for purchase at many online stores starting July 23! Website links are listed in the far right column on the spreadsheet.

We'll begin sharing peeks from our Season of Gratitude catalog right here on the blog next month, with the full catalog launch on August 18. It's going to be an exciting time, and ShopBox is the start of it all! If you visit a retail store participating in the ShopBox program, please let us know by using the hashtag #heroartsshopbox on social media. We'd love to see what you found!

Even if you're not quite ready to make Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Holiday and Winter projects, it's never too early to plan ahead! When do you begin creating for the season?

Happy stamping,
