GlobeIn ships via USPS and will ship to the U.S. for free or internationally for an additional $10.
The first look was very interesting and I was anxious to dig in and see what everything was. GlobeIn doesn’t include a general information card, but includes individual information cards on each of the products in the box. Here is what I received:
~Maya Gonzalez Woven Bag ($80): I pulled this out of the box first and thought it was a hat. LOL! It took me a minute to realize I needed to flip it around because it was a bag! It’s takes over a month to make every bag and is made by loom-free weaving. So cool!
~Khokhloma Matryoshka Dolls ($2.59): I have always thought these nesting dolls were so cool and my kids are also amazed with them. Such a simple toy, but so fun!
~Adberrahmane Oubassour Soap (~$5): I don’t know that I have ever seen a soap that is SO pink! It’s made in Morocco’s famous “Rose Valley” and contributes vital income to the valley’s 12,000 residents. I am going to let the kids use this because I know they will get a kick out of the bright pink color.
All totaled I came up with a value of $87.59 for the May 2014 GlobeIn Artisan Gift Box. I thought this was a great value (boxes are $29.99/month) and loved the uniqueness of the items they included!
