I don't currently subscribe to any monthly subscription boxes, but let me tell you this -- I am starting to really love the concept!
Who doesn't love getting mail, especially a package? I was so excited to receive a box from Mission Cute, which is a pretty special subscription service because they give back 50% of net proceeds to a different nonprofit each and every month. (Same reason why we love companies like Toms and Warby Parker so much.)
One of the reviews on the website compares Mission Cute to "Etsy in a Box" and I have to agree with that. One of the items I received in my February box is this beautiful statement necklace, which I wear about once a week. The colors are ivory, gold, and a very light citrine color. It is a new favorite in my jewelry box.
Each box comes with a card that describes that month's nonprofit. They partner with nonprofits all over the country, but this month was pretty special to me because the charity was right in my city of Charlotte, NC.
The box and packaging itself are put together so well. You can tell that this company takes pride in putting together each and every one!
My February box included a chiffon polka-dotted scarf, some L'Occitane Cherry Blossom hand cream, my fun statement necklace, a crocheted ear warmer (I almost wouldn't mind another snow day now that I have this!) and some fancy paper straws.
The Mission Cute boxes start at $29/month, and shipping is always free. And if you want to meet the beauty and the brains behind this awesome concept, it's Samantha from The Ledford Life!
A big thumbs up to this subscription box that definitely lives up to its name.
I'm sold!
I think the box things are a great idea. Except I am SOOOO picky and particular. Maybe I should get the dog one, I know Jax wouldn't care! Ha.
ReplyDeleteawesome! I love the scarf & ear warmer!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun concept!!! Even if you get something YOU don't love, it would probably make a great gift for someone else!!
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this I'm pretty tempted to try this! Such cute things in that box! And I'm a fan of good packaging
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of Mission box but absolutely love the idea! Everything looks so cute!

What a great concept. I love the pieces you got! I'm always wary of boxes, letting someone else pick things out for me isn't really my forte. I may have to take a chance on this one.

I am not one for monthly subscriptions either HOWEVER, I love that they give back 50% of their proceeds! What a great company to support! I will definitely have to look into them!
ReplyDeleteI love the frames over your bed! Have you shared where you found these before? I've been searching and searching for the right thing to go over my headboard! - Ashley_kkg@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea!!!
ReplyDeleteI have subscribed to a beauty box before but I love the concept of this one! I think it would help me step out of the box with something I might not necessarily purchase but would end up loving!
