Rocksbox

-
Hello readers, here I am again with another unboxing.
(I decided to try writing my review a little differently this time by using bullet points since this is a short review and I like to change my review style from time to time).

This time I thought I would try Rocksbox!

Why did I try Rocksbox?
  • I like Jewelry
  • I get to try it for free and still offered the $21 dollar credit. So there was no risk for me.


What is Rocksbox?
  • Its a jewelry subscription box.
 
What do they send?
  • They send you 3 pieces of jewelry. They pick this Jewelry out for you. You preview it and you get to change what comes.
 
How was it packaged?
  • All jewelry comes in little jewelry bags. With the whole bundle wrapped nicely in tissue.
  • They also send you a prepaid label to send items back you don't want.
 
  • You also get sent a care card, price list, and I think a stylist card (I don't remember for sure on that specific feature sorry).
 
 
What did I get?
(pictures from Rockbox's website as my camera wasn't taking good pictures again).
 
Kate Spade Out West Pave Racoon Mini Pendant Necklace: Wow that's a lot $68
 
 I will say I did chose this necklace but I thought $68 is an extreme amount for a necklace. However I have a family member who likes racoons so I thought she might be interested in this one but she was not.
 
I must say for being a Kate Spade item it seemed rather thin and I was worried about the glitter coming off.
 
So of course back in the package it went.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Sophie Harper Turquisose Pave Charm: hmm... $51
 
I picked this one out too but I must say on the computer the charms looked better than they did in person.
 
Again when I took it out of the jewelry bag it even seemed thinner etc. Than the raccoon one.
 
I also wasn't digging the charms.
 
I did like the color however.
 
$51 is also expensive for a necklace.
 
It went back.
 
 
 
 
Sophie Harper Star Cuff Ring With Jet Pave: $34 dollars (that's a bit much for a ring)
 
I picked this one out too. I liked it I thought it was different. Trying it on however it was a different story. It did not fit comfortably. I think it was to small. It was a size 9. The ring style also felt odd on my finger.
 
I wanted to love it but couldn't.
 
It also felt cheap and thin like the others.
 
It of course got sent back as well.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Prices
  • These items were all very expensive.
  • If you kept all 3 items you got $10 off. Other companies give you a % off like 25% etc. Of course I did not keep anything.
  • They also give you $21 off one item in the box. ($21 a month is how much their service cost).
  • So if I would have kept the ring it would have been $13 but like I said above I didn't like it, it did not fit etc. Plus I think $13 is still a bit much for a ring.
 
Overall thoughts  
 
  • I did not enjoy using this service and I would not recommend them.
  • The quality of the items did not impress me. The cost didn't either.
  • I have canceled my membership and will not be using their service again.

Annies Holiday Quilters Club

I thought I would try another kit from Annie's again. Today I am trying Annie's Holiday Quilters Club I do not remember the price but I did get it discounted. Here is the link to my unboxing/unenveloping: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M10Y3GRPWCE What was in the envelope?  A kit to make muti holiday hot pads.  Thoughts : Seems like a nice kit.  Something that  will actually be made.  I did not open the kit because I am gifting it.  Would I recommend Annie's Kits? Overall I would have to say no. I do not think you get that much for what you pay. Am I keeping this subscription up?  No. Even though I liked the kit, as I said before. I do not think its worth it.

Today as part of the Purex Insider Program I will be reviewing 20 Mule Team Borax on my blog. I would like to thank Purex Insiders for sending me this product to try. Product Info: Borax is the common name for sodium tetraborate: a naturally occurring substance produced by the repeated evaporation of seasonal lakes. 20 Mule Team® Borax is 100% natural, and 99.5% pure (there is about a half of 1% of naturally occurring trace minerals). Once removed from the ground it is washed, dried, and boxed for consumers. Borates, borax and boron compounds are with us throughout our lives. Families use it to soak and wash diapers and other laundry, but it’s also an ingredient in cosmetics , medicines, ceramics and building materials. The biggest industrial user of borates is the glass industry (especially fiberglass and gorilla glass). It’s an important ingredient in agricultural chemicals and fire retardants . In earlier times, borax was proclaimed to be a magical crystal that was used ...

Creeper Crate July 2018 Items

I recently discovered Creeper Crate while looking for unique boxes. The stuff looked great. I thought I would look at past boxes to try things out. Was I excited when I found out they had a Vincent Price Box from July 2018! I love Vincent Price, he is one of my favorite actors. Of course I needed this box, unfortunately not all of the items where available. The pin was sold out and the t-shirt was not available in my size. Here is the link to my unboxing of the items I got: https://youtu.be/qcs2TvAdDXo Now since I bought the items I knew what was coming but I was still so excited!!! My box came as a white box that said Creeper Crate (in a coffin) and then the box was spattered with blood it was really cool! Items in my package/box: A card that thanked me for my order. When I turned it over it had Randy's Rules for surviving a horror movie. The card was hilarious and unexpected but I loved it.   Now on to what I actually bought: The Inventor Iron on Patch by Dem...
