More of The Little Black Boxes-Part 3

See! I'm telling you. There is no shortage of goodies in this bag you get. Still more. Here we go. . . .

Capella's Garden Soap Co. included a Plumeria Bath Bomb Sample. Smells very fresh and I will be using this this week as the kids are off school for THREE days. Count them with me 1, 2, 3!! Another coupon code on the back as well for free shipping.


On to sugar. I may pop this in my mouth as I tubby with my bath bomb. Sweet Lolly Shop included a sampling of one of their Barley Pops. This was in the shape of a Vampire {remember I got the October box}. The Lolly Shop deals in {Delicious Homemade Lollipops & Unique Soaps for All Occasions Birthdays, Weddings, Baby Showers, Stocking Fillers & More}


I love a good key fob. I love them because they are all so pretty. If I were childless and had more time to think of my accessories before I walked out the door I may just have a key fob to match each outfit. Deanne Designs included a beauty. Nice heavy black with an assortment of green stitching. Too cute!


Worn Dress Designs incuded a very whimsical, fun necklace. Also included was a coupon code for a future purchase. The card included in the giveaway described Worn Dress Designs as {unique, mostly one of a kind creations. Specializing in hand drawn jewelry, blank books, and soap. Worn Dress is a one stop shop for all of your needs.} I love that! Who doesn't love ONE STOP.


This is the time of year to start thinking about card giving. Deb's Designs sent along a nice sample of a seasonal card they have to offer. Included was a coupon code for free cards. FREE. {with purchase of course} We all need a little free in our lives these days.


Foxy Monster {Baubles for Babes with Brains} I don't know where to start. So much time and thought and art went into the package from Foxy Monster. There was a pin and quite a few cards included in their package. The cards were postcards, coupon cards, business cards. An assortment. My suggestion is, go check out Foxy Monster and all they have to offer. You won't be disappointed.


Last for today, and in no way to equal least, is Christi Miller who is a mixed media artist and zine publisher. Again you must go and check out her stuff. It's so difficult to put into words and descibe all that was in the package she included. A cute little book entitled "An Art Medley" {A mini sampler of art zines available at material.etsy.com} Really, go look!

The Little Black Boxes-Part 1


There were so many great products in the box I got from Kimberlee Keane of The Little Black Boxes that I have to break these blog posts down into parts. All week I will be describing the products and linking to all the great shops and sites.

Look at how full the bag was!


With no further ado*****

Beadbrat Originals
included a beautiful pair of stud earrings. The earstuds are Silver filled wire and Czech glass. The earrings were attached to the business card. On the back of the business card was a coupon code for 15% off! All of this was wrapped up in a cute little bag with some orange fill. Very much to the season.


Dreamer's Web {Custom Novelty Soaps & Handmade Party Favors} included a Cucumber Melon Glycerin Soap. The smell is so fresh! A 10% off coupon code was included on the back of the business card.


I am in love with the cute little black and white polka dot zippered pouch that was included from Abba Dabba Bags. Monica Taylor also makes Diaper Bags, Wristlets, Handbags, and Totes.


Love, Laurie makes unique rippers, threaders, pincushions/statuettes and more, both beautiful and useful! A cute little threader that looks like a petit four was included. Looks good enough to eat.


Kiwi Punch Designs packaged up a cute little thank you card that has a beautiful hand sewn look. I will definitely be sending this to a close friend.

Aren't these some of the cutest trick or treaters you ever saw?!

I seriously only have four pictures from this past Halloween. Between three parties and trick or treating you'd think I'd have more!

It was such a challenge to get everyone dressed and ready and looking perfect every time. By the time I was able to pull out the camera I was exhausted. And that was if I remembered the camera.

Seriously, some moms need mommy helpers. I need an on staff photographer.

On another note, getting the mail on Saturday was exciting! I got my package from Kimberlee Keane at The Little Black Boxes!

I'm going to spend this week going through each and every piece that I got. I'm so excited. The bag was filled with so many great things. I'm going to try and link to everyone. This may help you with your "Handmade Holiday".

Come check it out this week here!
