The Holiday Housewife Box June 2014

What's in the box?

The Holiday Housewife is a monthly box for $24.95.  June's theme was Free Spirit.  

The box promises 4-5 items with a monthly newsletter and recipes.

This month had two recipes:  Buffalo Blue Cheese Meatballs and Margarita Mix!  

"The Month of June is dedicated to your inner bohemian girl and letting your Free Spirit run wild!"

 Magnetic Clip - (.75)  The cute little clip on this month's theme saying is very cute.  I love the little pink accent jewels.  LIKE!

Gift Bag - ($5.00) This is a very cute gift bag and it comes right in time - I have a friend who celebrated a birthday this weekend.  LIKE!

Bohemian Love Heart Peacock Necklace and Burlap bag - ($8.95 and $1.00)  This is necklace is very cute and I put it on as soon as it was out of the box because it matched my outfit perfectly.  It is long too which I love. The little bag it came in is pretty cute too.

 LOVE!

Up close of the necklace charms:

Owl Note Cards - (5.92) - These are super cute little note cards and they are exactly what I would pick out in a store.  Very cute owls and love having thank you cards on hand.  LOVE!

Owl Journal - ($6.99) I love this little Owl Journal too.  Perfect size to throw in my purse to make lists. And I love the lime and pink together.  LOVE!

Charm Bracelet with Feather Charm - ($22.95 and $3.00)  The first time you sign up for Holiday Housewife you get this lovely charm bracelet and each box includes a charm.  This month's charm is a feather.  Very cute and I love how cute this is.  LOVE!

Flower Hair Clip/Pendant - ($5.50) I would never wear this in my hair but I do have the perfect purse to attach this to so it is not a total loss - love that it has a pin to also make this a pendant.  LIKE!

Hazelnut Wafers - ($4.99)  The box also included some wafers and my husband snagged them right away. So they were a win for him!  LOVE!

The value of the box came up to a total of $72.58 (they included a $7.99 shipping fee in their total value price) and I paid $24.95 with shipping included. 

So the items in the box were ones I would use or like to wear, so it was worth the money to me.  I am very excited to see what is in July's box as the spoiler says "Girl's Night In" and promises great pampering items for Etsy shop owners. 

WANTABLE BOX: ACCESSORIES

WHAT'S IN THE ACCESSORIES BOX?

This is box 2 of that terrific Wantable deal I got - $1 a box!  This is the Accessories Box review!

I again filled out their quiz to tell them what types of accessories I liked: from colors to style to theme to length of necklace even - it was a very detailed quiz and I could say whether I liked, loved or disliked something.  I chose to dislike rings, scarves, hair accessories, Rock 'n Roll, Boho, and gold tones.  

Hilary sunglasses - I was really hoping to get a pair in my box as I just broke my black pair.  Perfect!  I will be using these before anything else! LOVE

 Stacey Necklace -  I love this long necklace and am glad I made that choice in my quiz - I have seen some of the other necklaces going around and I would not have been happy with them.  This is more my style. LOVE!

 Nichole Earrings - At first, I was kind of MEH about these earrings until I remembered I have the perfect outfit to wear them with that has just enough yellow to pull these off.  I cannot wear a yellow shirt with my red hair but I can pull off a little yellow if it's not all over.
OKAY!

Juliet Bracelet - This is something I would totally pick out at a jewelry party or store.  I love silver and this is me.  So happy with it and it might be my favorite thing in this box.
LOVE!

Another great job by Wantable's team picking this out for me - all four items are keepers and I could not be happier with my selections.  I think I will check no bracelets on the next box I get just because I really have tons and I will probably move watches to the dislike pile because I would never wear one.
