This month's theme was “The Sweet Homebody”.  Both the standard and deluxe boxes were the same this month, but the boxes had a deluxe value.

 The box shipped Priority 3 day.  I liked the label was a brown color instead of the normal white.  It seemed a bit artsy.

 I loved the hot pink tissue paper.  The envelope had some coupons and the packing list/information card

 This is a beautiful package

 I got excited about the chevron.  I could wait to dig in.

This is the information list.  It has all the products, the companies and the retail value listed.  There area also QR codes to link to each website.

 This is a nice magnet and very artsy.  Lexisworks also sent a 20% coupon code for the Etsy shop.

 This is handmade in the UK.  I linked it to a product in the company's Etsy shop, but this one is smaller.  The $6.00 value appears accurate.  I love the Beatles reference.  I will put this on my desk.

I love these spoons.  These are handmade out of ceramic and are so well made.  They would be cute as a decoration in the kitchen, or to serve dips/sauces.  These are my favorite items.

 I always have thank you cards at home.  I am a believer of the written sentiment, and in this technological time, I don't think there is a replacement for a hand written card.

 I love chevron and this will go great in my black and white bedroom.  I want to order some more pillow case covers.

 Wow!  This candle smells amazing.  It smells like gardenia, roses and maybe some honeysuckle.  I love the scent.

Indie Gift Box included a 30% off coupon to Chin Up Prints, a 25% off coupon for G.E.A.R by Re-Invention, and a $30.00 off furniture or 25% coupon code for decor at Wyldwood Home.  They have some really neat tree stump side tables.  There was also a card from www.peaceloveswap.com.  It is on online website to swap gently used baby, kid and maternity items.
