The box includes cards highlighting the month's selections and the vendors/makers behind each item. The cards are bound together into a booklet by a black velvet ribbon! This month's theme is "September Soiree." Pretty much everything you need for a fab wine-tasting party!
Now, on to the items!
Bloomingville Marble Cutting Board - Retail Value $30 (On Amazon for $25.50)
Wow! The first thing I thought when I lifted this cutting board was that it is HEAVY! This is a legit marble cutting board! (It has foam pads on the bottom to keep it safe.)
I like the rounded shape, and the off-white/grey marble is perfect for all white and stainless steel kitchen. The simple leather strap is a nice touch, too.
This measures about 12 by 8 inches. It would be perfect for serving cheese, crackers, etc, but I wouldn't use it to cut/prepare foods since it could stain and it is handwash only.
And speaking of cheese...
Bloomingville Gold Stainless Steel Cheese Server - Retail Value $10
I love a gold utensil, but I wish this one was dishwasher safe! It's a perfect item to go with the marble cutting board, and the value seems very fair.
Rifle Paper Co. Herb Garden Coasters - Retail Value $14
If you've read MSA for a while, you might already know that I love anything Rifle Paper Co. makes! Put beautifully illustrated florals on a notebook/print/coaster, and I'm sold!
(And since we're talking Rifle Paper Co., did you know they now have a line of candles?! Fingers crossed we see one in a subscription box soon!)
These are made from a thick pulp board, so they should be good for multiple uses, but a few MSA readers have recommend laminating coasters like this to make sure they last forever.
Bloomingville Porcelain Votive Holder - Retail Value $10
(Subscribers will receive one of three different designs. All designs are gold.)
This little tea light votive measures about 3 inches tall and has a glazed ceramic interior. Our house is modern minimalist (or modern messy on most days if we're being honest), and this is the perfect amount of gold and shine to add a little sparkle! (And since the interior is glazed, this could double as a bud vase.)
Creative Co-Op Cast Iron Mouse Card Holders - Retail Value $7.50 each
These mice aren't something I would have picked out, but now that they are in my hands, I can't deny that they are pretty cute! The mice measure about 2 inches tall, and each of them holds a metal stick to attach a card. (Perfect for labeling a cheese spread!)
Verdict: This box has a total retail value of around $86.50 That's pretty fair, given the $54.95 price for the box (plus $10 shipping to most of the US). I thought this box was well-curated, and all the items are quality pieces, too. (And I'm in love with the marble cutting board!)
I think my one hesitation with this box is that it seems as though the design styles change from month to month. Sometimes I find the aesthetic to be modern and clean (which I love), other times it is a bit more rustic.
For example, here are the spoilers for the October box:
That wooden crow definitely feels rustic to me, but at the same time, I see how it works for Halloween decor.
