It’s time for my monthly Best of the Boxes post! These are my favorite items (although I do try and pick from a variety of items) from subscription boxes I received in April 2014 (well reviews I posted from 4/1 – 4/30 otherwise it gets too confusing):

1. RIADA by Adair Tiebar (Birchbox Man): B and I both agree that this is awesome.  The only thing that I think could make it better is if it were made from a reclaimed wood.  I just found out there is a sunglass place that makes the frames from reclaimed wood from old houses in Detroit and I think it’s such a cool idea.
2. Counting with Wayne Thiebaud (Citrus Lane Mystery Box): Love the illustrations in this one and think I totally lucked out by receiving it in a Mystery Box!
3. Soap & Paper Factory Shea Butter Hand Cream (Birchbox In Full Bloom): Honestly, I wanted to select the entire In Full Bloom box, put it on here and call the Best of List done.  My favorite favorite items from that box were between this and the candle, but it in the end I went for this, not because because it’s a fabulous hand cream, but because of the gorgeous packaging.
4. Harvey Prince Yogini Fragrance (Petit Vour): How did I not know about Harvey Prince scents before subscription boxes?  This is my latest favorite and do think it’s calming.  Maybe it’s because I am thinking about yoga when I think about it?  Not sure.
5. Mustache Friends Mustache (Nerd Block Jr.): Ha! I am going to save the picture of my boys in these forever.  It’s going to be on my wall for years actually.  Totally hysterical and so fun.
6. Bombas Sock Collection (PijonBox): I am totally getting old because I picked socks as one of my favorite items.  These are fairly thick, but oddly don’t feel like it when I put them on and my feet don’t get warm in them either.
7. Bad Ass B*tch Soy Candle (Kelly Rowland Fancy Box): Love the name and the scent is even better.
8. Sisco Berluti Bracelet Stack (PopSugar Resort): I.love.this.stack.  It’s totally me and every time I look at their site I want order half dozen more.
9. Caldrea Rosewater Driftwood Hand Soap (PopSugar): Great scent and very useful.  Sometimes I LOVE something in a box but just don’t get to use it right for whatever reason.  But I always need to wash my hands!
10. Single Herb Pot (Tyler Florence Fancy Box): I still haven’t decided what to put in here, but I think that it will be a project for the boys and I this weekend.  My mom got a TF box this month as well, and also thinks this is so cool.

Those were my favorites now what were yours? Anything you received that you have now totally fallen in love with? I can’t wait to hear!
