-Definitely going to be subscribing to BootyBin for $29/month, a gaming and geek gear box, like LootCrate. But for me instead of A.J., honestly we share the boxes, he likes some stuff, I like some stuff.
-In a Pretty Box Artisan box $42/Month, looks interesting. Artisan crafted products, including fashion accessories, jewelry, bath & body products, stationary, and more. Seems kind of expensive though, maybe I'll just try one box in the future and see.
-Out of the box sampler comes with 17-18 samples of handmade items, from places like etsy.com, for only $25/month.
-Dumpling Box looks cute, it has a variety of Asian snacks to sample and enjoy, and it's only $10/month. But I'm not subscribing to this right away, maybe later on when we get settled in after the move.
-Love with Food sounds yummy. For $12/month they deliver a curated box of 8+ unique gourmet food items that vary based on seasonal themes.
-Eco-Emi has a seriously cute website! They offer 5-10 samples of natural, organic, green, eco-friendly, cruelty free, vegan, vegetarian, or fair-trade products for only $15/month. And they're wrapped in cute, chic, earth friendly packaging.
-Poppy Parcel has 3-4 products ranging from paper products, jewelry, accessories, beauty products, and more for $19.99/month. Waitlist!
-Umba Box is a curated box of 3-4 handmade goods ranging from jewelry, accessories, stationary, and bath products.
$25/month.
-Yuzen is $26/quarter and is a seasonal box filled with luxurious, healthy, and eco-friendly products.
-The Bride Box sounds interesting, since I'm slowly collecting stuff for our wedding in the future. It's $35/month and has 4-5 gifts, handmade products, and incentives to help you plan your big day.
-NailArt Society is $9.95/month and they deliver 4-6 cool NailArt products! This looks really neat, I've been wanting to try out more nail products, but not polishes. There are several nail polish subscription services out there, but I love OPI, fiercely.
They are the ONLY nail polish that lasts on my toes, I hardly paint my finger nails, because I clean alot, and it just chips off the next day.
-MysteryBox
is a collection of 5-10 Themed awesome + weird items for $24/month.
I'll be ordering more boxes in the coming months, after I get fully moved to my "new" house. I really want about half of the list of boxes, and soon! So my review section will be more filled out in the coming months. :)
I'm definatly becoming more aware of what I'm putting in, and on my body. Some disturbing ingredients can be found in food,
and body products, and it's actually got me considering eco-friendly, natural, and organic more. I've already decided when we get settled in at the new house we'll be starting a garden, and raising a small "herd" of chickens. (Look,
I know chickens have flocks, not herds, that's cows, I'm just QUIRKY like that, sorry!) I'm going to try out Meyer Hatchery
out of Polk, Ohio. They have a large selection of chicks, and a variety of rare breeds. I'm torn between several breeds, but when the time comes, I'll just be picking one or two breeds. I think it's so cool that baby chicks can be shipped! I can't wait to have fresh eggs, and occasionally meat, available. Visit Meyer Hatchery to check out their huge selection of poultry. They even have peacocks!
I've also been checking out Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company. They are a Non-GMO seed company out of Mansfield, MO. Their catalog is literally drool-inducing! Their vegetables are so unique!
So the eco-friendly/organic/vegan/Etc. sample subscription boxes are starting to sound a lot more apealing. I'm not fimilar with very many natural products and brands, so I'm interested in finding out more through one of the subscription box companies. I started subscribing to these monthly boxes of goodies, and now I'm pretty hooked. LootCrate and Pawalla were great, I can't wait for Barkbox for Stinky, I'm anxious to see what kind of toy they send. Since both my pets were adopted, I only know how old they are from as long as we've had them. In Jacks case, we've had him for 8 years, but he was just a little kitten when we adopted him, no more than a month or two old, and he's grown to be a full sized cat. Stinky on the other hand, is about the
same size as when we adopted her, and we've had her at least 6 years now. So there's no telling how old she really is. Needless to say they're both senior-age pets, but they're not decrepit or anything, they both still romp around and play! The treats from Pawalla were great for Jack, he has been eating them up whenever it's treat time! I'm curious to see if I'm as happy with the Barkbox as I am with the Pawalla Cat Mini Box.
