We're all about the new boxes lately!
When we were in California at the end of May, the husband was kind enough to drive to several stores to do a bit of bento shopping. I didn't find everything I wanted, but I got several new boxes, dividers and a ton of new picks.
These boxes are actually smaller and thinner than most of the two tier ones I have, so perfect for F&B. Faith's has a black top with flowers and came with a light pink band, Ben's is blue, no design and a blue band. I think his needs a sticker or something on top.

Today, Faith had faux sushis with rolled out multigrain breads, romaine lettuce, ham, cream cheese and a sliver of carrot. I thought they really turned out cute! To go with it, she had skewers of grapes, the leftover bits of carrots from the sandwich, and cucumber hearts. At the last minute, I discovered we were out of veggie straws, so I subbed in some Plum Kids Organic Fruit Shreds (peach) and half of a Gnu Foods Carrot Cake Bar. The Gnu bar was from a swap and the Plum Kids shreds were a sample, the kids loved both!
That is so cute. We have a small local Japanese Grocery, but that have very few Bento items. I would love to go to California to one of their stores!
