She's Crafty


I've been getting Crafty Sampler boxes for over a year. I love that there's usually a lot of sellers that you'll find here that aren't always in the other boxes out there. I've gotten turned on to some fabulous indie shops from them! As a buyer, you can choose from 2 box sizes and they are priced SO inexpensively! A small box is only $12.00 and a large box is only $18.00! This includes shipping! 
These make excellent gifts for the person who likes soaps and tarts.

For contributors, you only need to send in 20-30 samples to be included, but if you send in 50 or more, you receive a free large box for that month. You'll also be advertised on their web page. Whoever sends in the most samples that month is also chosen as the Featured Contributor for the month, with extra advertising and exposure. If you don't have an advertising button, Paulina will actually make one for you free of charge! How cool is that?
There's also a Facebook page where you can keep up with the latest contributors and giveaways.
Tell her The Beauty Pirate sent ya!

Here's the video of a typical box:

And for a close up of the earrings I'm wearing- from indie jeweler Vowangems, who is currently having a 75% off sale on their already low prices! 

Contibutors:
Wildberry Zinger Tea wax melts
Fragrant Flickers (319-899-0772) does not currently have a web site, which is unfortunate, as the products that I've received before are a pure delight. They do sell at retail locations throughout Iowa, so keep your eyes open if you're in those parts- but for the rest of us, if you want to try out some amazingly scented products, give 'em a call and place an order over the phone.

The only thing is, you get a small box for 50+ samples. I send large boxes to people who send 100 or more. Just to let you know. lol
