Aster Market is a monthly delivered box of exceptionally made, small-batch products from around the world. Boxes will include anything from home décor, jewelry, accessories, paper goods, bath products and more. Also, Aster Marker will donate 25% of the net proceeds of each purchase can be donated to a non-profit of your choice.
Aster Market ships via USPS. If you subscribe by the last day of the month, your first box will ship the first week of the following month. For example, if you subscribe by October 31th, then your Aster Market box will ship the first week of November.
The October 2016 Aster Market box included the following items:
~NESTA Home Canvas Storage Basket ($19.95): This canvas tote is 12″ tall adjustable (you can unroll the top) x 14″ wide at top. It can be used for storing anything from magazines, books, diapers, toys or even fruits and veggies. I am going to use mine to store my subscription box information cards on my “to review” boxes. Love this!
~Winterwoods Tea Company Harvest Apple ($9.99): I am not a tea person so I am going to pass this along to my cousin who is. The tea is made with “sweet GreenBluff apples handpicked and dried in the beautiful Inland Northwest and blended together with rooibos and beautiful sunflower petals, nettle leaf and fall spices”. I have to say, it smells pretty amazing.
~Leather Cord Keeper by Crave ($8): These are genius – if you can remember to use them. They keep your headphone, USB and other cords neat and organized so if they end up in a tangled mess in the bottom of your purse (I speak from experience on this).
~Tang Tong Tavy Mata Soy Candle ($16): This 100% soy candle is nothing short of amazing. The notes in it are “woody, musk, herbs, amber, sage, lavandin, and orange”. It’s probably one of the most incredible candle scents I have come across. It burns clean and is hand-poured in small batches. In addition, all of the Tang Tony Tavy (love the name) come individually hand-wrapped and hand-stamped so they make amazing hostess gifts.
All totaled I came up with a value of $53.94 for the October 2016 Aster Market. The values are what I’d call incredible on these boxes, but I always enjoy the curation.
