I'm an extremely eclectic person. I adore just about everything but things that are unique, things that tell a story, those are the ones that really draw me in. They hold a special place in my heart that I don't think will ever be replaced. One new subscription box has just arrived to aid me in my search for those special treasures. Allow me to introduce you to the October Litu Box.
Litu Box, who very kindly sent me this box for review, is a brand new artisan subscription service. The cost is $30.00 Per month and includes handmade and artisan goodness from across the globe. The October/ November box celebrates the spirit of Halloween-- and Fair Trade Month! 5% of all the profits in October and November will support UNICEF in their campaign to provide Syrian children in refugee camps much-needed supplies of water, clothing, & vaccinations. Need an extra incentive to subscribe? Use coupon code LBHALLOWEEN25 to get 25% OFF the October/November box!
Wow! I am seeing a TON of goodies just waiting to be explored. Seriously, this is such an exciting and impressive first look!
A detailed information card is included with all the details on the products you received in your box.
Just Good Chocolate LLC. Better World Brownies - $13.00 --- Did someone read my mind and know I've been craving brownies? I can't wait to make these now! USDA Organic certified and fair trade certified, 25 cents from the sale of each bag of mix goes to On The Ground, a charity whose mission is to support and develop sustainable and fair trade practices in farming regions across the world.
Maya Traditions Hand Woven Pouch - $9.00 --- Aren't the colors used for this just beautiful?! I love it! Crafted on a footloom by skilled artisans in Guatemala, this bag is fair trade, 100% cotton and sewn with an inner lining.
Equal Exchange Organic 55% Dark Chocolate Minis - $0.20 each --- Some of the best Dark Chocolate I've had in some time. The perfect balance of flavor! These delicious minis are Vegan and Soy Free, made from 100% fair trade ingredients harvested from farmer co-operatives in the Dominican Republic, Peru, Paraguay and Madagascar.
YumEarth Organic Lollipops - $0.25 each --- After tasting just one of these, I immediately went online and bought 2 bags. They are undeniably the BEST lollipops I have ever tasted in my life. Made with only Earth friendly and certified Organic ingredients. Also fat and gluten free, 100% vegan and free of nuts, dairy and soy!
Bow & Arrow Candle Co Witches Brew Soy Candle - $7.00 --- Who doesn't love candles? I know I do. It's a bit of an obsession really. This candle is 100% natural soy made from US grown soy beans and was made exclusively for Litu Box. Hand poured with a natural cotton wick and features an amazing scent. A combination of cinnamon, bergamot, Jasmine, rose, black tea, patchouli and musk fragrance oils.
Litu Box Handmade Worry Dolls & Gemstone - $5.00 --- I had some like this years ago and loved them. These dolls are made from leftover handwoven fabric and crafted by local artisans from Guatemala. The stone ties into a story that goes along with the dolls too. Even more awesome, 100% of the profits from this product will support UNICEF's campaign to provide Syrian children with much needed water, clothing, and vaccinations.
Tili Glass Handmade Glass Earrings - $16.00 --- Made by Juan Pablo Borcoski as part of Calypso Glass en Comparte in Chile. Comparte is a non-profit organization whose mission is to improve the living conditions of artisans and their families by exporting their handicrafts around the world.
Aren't these beyond beautiful? I mean, look at the details in the glass! They feature squares of glass fused together to create a magical effect. I can't think of a more perfect word to describe these either. Just... Magical!
I love love LOVE this box! It embodies everything a great artisan subscription should be. The stories and love behind each item makes Litu Box a subscription that is far beyond special... It's completely perfect!
