Wantable Accessories July Box

Hi guys!

Another fantastic early birthday present from someone who apparently thinks I deserve to be completely showered with gifts.

This is the July Accessories Wantable Box. It came ridiculously fast, and I’m so happy with it.

My preferences are (in case you’re curious):

Love – Rock ‘n Roll, Boho, Mix ‘n Match, Earrings, Necklaces, Rings, Silver Tone, Multi Tone

Like – Classic, Glam, Watches, Sunglasses, Scarves

Dislike – Bracelets, Hair Accessories, Gold Tone

The whole idea is you’re most likely to receive products you love, and you’ll never receive products you dislike. So, really, you should at least like, if not love, everything in your box. Here’s what was in mine!

Francesca Necklace

There wasn’t an “I Love Trees” option, but somehow Wantable knew anyway! I totally love this necklace.

Anna Earrings

I don’t wear big dangly earrings all that often, but I sure do love them. And these are turquoise (my favorite color) to boot!

Kate Necklace

I love how delicate this necklace is. It’s definitely on my list to wear to an opening night party. Or maybe I already have!

Angela Watch

This is super cool and once I master how to put it on, it will be even cooler! I love the studded look and the wrap look. Put them both together and count me in!

I get two more Wantable Box birthday gifts (how did I get so lucky!?) so I think my next one will be a makeup box and then, depending on how that goes, I’ll choose between the two for my last one. Presents are exciting, y’all!

Sunny Summer Swap

So, back at the beginning of May I signed up for:



Basically, you get paired up with someone and you have a $25 limit to spend on anything summer-related you want. You learn about your partner and sent them a swap filled with things they'll love that'll help them jump into summer!

My partner is 34-year-old mother of three, Dara of Not in Jersey. We swapped Goodreads accounts, and I read through some of her blog. She posts lots of mom related things as well as crafts things and pictures of her family. It was really fun getting to know her!

We decided at the start that we'd send each other our swaps fairly early because we were both leaving town, so I received my box on the 28th.

I got:

This beautiful card set with a colorful parrot on it

Three pairs of earrings: little birds, dangly balls, and butterflies

Essie Turquoise and Caicos nail polish

Two Stephen King novels: Misery and Thinner

And these cute little bird clothespins

I'm not 100% sure what I'll do with the clothespins yet. I might buy little magnet strips so I can use them on the pretty magnet board my best friend made it. I think they'd go nicely with it.

This blog swap was tons of fun! I'm super excited to partake in the next one Melissa does, and I love her blog! Make sure to check it out at Lulu and Sweet Pea.
