Fair Treasure, who kindly sent me this box to review, sends fair trade items such as jewelry, glass wear, pottery and paper goods, to your door each month. Their goal is to make it easier for everyone to explore the very best that Fair Trade products have to offer… and in turn, providing exposure and supporting the communities of people making these treasures.
FAIR Treasure ships via USPS and always arrives in a timely manner and without any issues.
I couldn’t tell a thing from the first look! I knew it didn’t include a candle or something scented though because I couldn’t smell anything.
The June 2014 FAIR treasure theme was “Inner Staycation: Summer Meditation Box” and included the following items to help serve as a source of peace, calm and refuge from literal and figurative stormy weather:
~Meditation Kit (Mahaguthi, Craft with a Conscience) ($12): I didn’t want to take this out of the package before reading more about it because I wasn’t sure if it needed to be handled in a certain way. I don’t need any bad vibes coming my way! From what I can find, it doesn’t look like it does, but I need to talk to someone about what everything is in here because I am not familiar with this.
~Lotus Candleholder (Saffy, Inc.) ($24): How pretty is this? I love it! I think this has moved up as my favorite item I have received from FAIR treasure! Saffy specializes in capiz shell items and provides their artists with educational seminars, vocational training, financial and medical assistance.
~Darling Bracelet (Nairobi Artisan Group / Greenola Style) ($22): I like that this bracelet isn’t overly fancy and is actually something I would pick up if I saw somewhere and got to hear the story behind it!
All totaled I came up with a value of $58 for the June 2014 FAIR treasure box which is well over the $35/month cost of the box. I thought this was a great box and was one of my favorites from them!
