Yesterday was a crazy busy day, but you better bet I stopped what I was doing when I saw that my November 2014 Hazel Lane box had arrived!
If you aren’t familiar, Hazel Lane sends a carefully curated box of surprise goodies from that month’s selected city that they think represents its spirit. The idea is to give you an affordable way to explore the world without having to leave your house! Items you can expect to see included are food, drink, clothing, accessories and handcrafted items chosen by locals with the environment, social responsibility and CHICNESS in mind. I subscribe to the “Classic” box which is $46.99/month.
Hazel Lane ships towards the end of the month via USPS Priority Mail.
Loved the colors in the first look and the use of washi tape was much appreciated!
The November 2014 Hazel Lane destination was “Oakland, CA” and contained the following items:
~Oakland Leather Pouch ($18): I love this little pouch. It’s handcrafted and can be used to store your jewelry, iPhone cords, etc. I have this in my bag already!
~Oaklandish Beanie ($15) & Sticker ($1): I may not be able to pull off a “BALLIN” hat, but I can pull this one off! The information card says that Oaklandish was just voted best small business by Fortune and Forbes which is awesome. Everything is made in Oakland and Oaklandish is a huge supporter of the community and sponsors many local events.
~ReJigger ($15): Well isn’t this handy! It’s a tool to help you make amazing craft cocktails at home. This is so cool because we get a lot of “stuff” in subscription boxes to make cocktails, but I don’t ever know if we have perfected them. The ReJigger has three separate sections labeled A, B and C and there are recipes for a variety of cocktails on the website which tell you what ingredient to put in what slot. It makes it so easy! Genius!
All totaled I came up with a value of $49 for the November 2014 Hazel Lane “Oakland” Classic Box. As usual I loved the curation and absolutely cannot wait for the December “Hawaii” box! I bet they knock it out of the park!
