The Holiday Housewife Box, who kindly sent me this box to review, is a monthly subscription service that delivers a box of gifts to you each month. You can expect to receive 4-5 items, each centered around a monthly theme, as well as a monthly newsletter feturing a blogger of the month and fantastic recipes.

The Box

The Holiday Housewife Box ships via USPS Priority Mail.  According to their website, Boxes will be delivered on or before the 15th of each month.

First Look

I hadn’t seen any spoilers for this box when I opened it and I was anxious to dig under all that paper!

Second First Look

The first look was very pink!  I wasn’t sure what to make of everything, but I did like the pink.

The Information Cards

The Holiday Housewife Box includes a newsletter with a Q&A from the Blogger of the Month (this month is the blogger is “The Girl in Pink“) and an inspirational quote, however, it does not include an information card.  Here is what was included:

~Jeweled Compact: Cute compact.  I like pink things and sparkly things, of course I think this is cute.

~Silk Cherry Blossom Body Cream: Not a brand I typically buy, but it smells good and I will use it.

~Link Bracelet: I have mixed feelings on this. It’d be cute with a charm or something on it, but as is it’s just too plain.  I like plain, but this just needs something.

Link Bracelet

~Cupcake Wraps: I don’t know that I have ever used a cupcake wrap.  I get what people do with them and it looks cute, but my boys just want to eat the cupcakes, not make them look all cute.

~Butterfly Ice Cube Tray: This isn’t exactly a silicone, but not exactly a plastic either.  I need to see if I can make crayons with this.  If not I guess I will have butterfly ice cubes or jello?

~Maxwell House Iced French Vanilla Latte: I will drink this (because I love caffeine), but I am not a big iced coffee fan. I don’t know why.  I always expect to love it, but then I drink it and I just don’t.  I like frappes and coffee, but not iced coffee.  So odd!

~Mason Jar Wine Glass: Ha.  I love this.  It’s SO bright and I love it.  This will serve me well out on the patio this summer!

I didn’t / couldn’t do a cost breakdown on this box because I couldn’t find many of the items available online.  However I wasn’t overly impressed by it for the $24.99/price.  I didn’t dislike anything in the box and I thought everything fit in well with the pink theme, but I wasn’t wowed by anything (except that pink cup).  I will be looking forward to seeing what they do for future boxes though because I like the idea behind this one!
