Lucky Dip Club

ramblingmads

I’ve been curious about the Lucky Dip Club sub box for ages, but since I either sleep through the 7am subscription window or am travelling to work at that time, I always fail to score a box on the first of every month.

So I added myself to the reserves list and was lucky enough to score a spare box that way.

image

May’s box is essentially Spring in a box.

image

There’s seeds to attract bees and butterflies to your garden, a copy of Girl Planet zine, a patch to sew onto your bag or jacket, a funky cactus pin, a tote bag (essential hand bag kit or pay 5p every time you shop!) and a Super Sunflower, which I will use to jazz up my plant pots, all in a cute box that was delivered by a unicorn.

Happy Mail – Beginning to look a lot like Christmas

ramblingmads

Technically this is November’s box but PayPal had a wobble so it was dispatched a little late. But still in plenty of time for this weekend’s Christmas decorating of the flat.

image

The box is full of fab little festive touches for the home and for presents. I can’t wait to get all these lovely bits up and Christmas up the house, making it all festive and cosy.

image

From funky ribbon to wrap around your gifts, cute decorations for the tree, a candy cane (I love candy canes) and even little signs to hang up or give as gifts for friends to decorate their homes with. Here’s some more photos.

Happy Mail; Pretty in Pink

ramblingmads

October’s Happy Mail box from IHeartHomes is pink themed as October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and as part of that, every box contains an item from the campaign, and a donation is made on behalf of subscribers from the cost of the box.

image

The items as always, are delightful. They include a magnetic photo frame from Sass & Belle, oversized owl paperclips, a piggy keyring flashlight and a yummy smelling wax melt.

To sign up or purchase a one-off box visit ihearthomes and don’t forget to browse their gorgeous Christmas range.

September Happy Mail – Paris

ramblingmads

Although this arrived as October started, September’s Happy Mail is all about one of my favourite places – Paris.

I am definitely a Francophile, a love spawned from childhood holidays in the sunny south, tales of my French ancestors (my great-great-grandmother was called Salome) and the food. I am also quite fond of French literature and of course, the capital.

From the Eiffel Tower to the Sacre Coeur, the patisseries and the madeleines (of which I, a Madeleine, am particularly fond), the metro and the tiny alleyways everywhere.

Katie of ihearthomes has assembled another great little box of goodies referencing the City of Lights.

image

There’s a notebook for all your Parisian dreaming, with a cute pencil to get them all down.

image

Stickers for the postcards ‘wish you were here’ that you’ll send, and gift tags for those all important holiday presents.

image

Eiffel’s tower is well represented, in a cute necklace and also a 3D model you assemble yourself, perfect for your office desk to keep you reminded of your trip!

image

There’s also a hanging heart, an iron on Bambi patch a lollipop (heart-shaped), a cute poster and a little sign that says ‘Salle de Bain’ (bathroom) to decorate yourself and your home. Except the lollipop, I recommend you eat that, not hang it up!

image

To subscribe to October’s box or buy other goodies, visit ihearthomes website or Facebook for photos.

Happy Mail – the alternative to all those bills

ramblingmads

Every month the lovely Katie at I Heart Homes ships out little bundles of joy, or Happy Mail.

There are three price tiers, including postage, £10, £15, £25.

I subscribe to the lowest tier, as it fits through my letterbox and that matters when your post gets delivered in the rain and parcels left outside the door get soggy.

Each month the boxes are themed, and all the little treats are associated with the theme. For example August’s was ‘Time for Tea’.

September’s upcoming box is ‘A Trip to Paris’, and I can’t wait for it to arrive.
