Burke Decor Whole Home Subscription Box Review – July 2015

I received my box today. I posted a picture on the MUT Burke Decor. You can also click on my name to see the same picture and a cute dog photo too 🙂

I just got my box… No info card like everyone else that got it at the beginning of the month. I got an ugly black vase with no name, a tozai tray that’s cracked down the middle and a Kai nightlight. What a letdown. I’m canceling this sub because this is the second month in a row that I’ve gotten a different and crappy box.

Has anyone else not received their July box yet? I’m starting to get a bit worried. O.o

I like this month’s box. My very first thought when opening the box is that everything is giftable. This is the time of year when people tend to move. The items will make great housewarming gifts.

I always wanted a salt and pepper grinder set, but never bought a set. It lights up which is fun for my younger son. I like Liz’s idea about putting flowers in the wine bottle. I may try using it for homemade salad dressing. The towel reminded me of Skandicrush. I didn’t know the brand was featured in it! I am happy that it is 100% organic cotton although I don’t care much for the design. I always welcome another towel because it is better than using paper towels to clean up.

I’m hoping next month has COLOR!!!

Would anyone be open to trading their salt and pepper grinders? My mom has arthritis in her hands and I think these would be perfect for her. She’s actually mentioned wanting a set for her birthday. I’d love to work out a trade with someone. My email is wldflowur13 (at) gmail (dot) com. Thanks! -Lisa

Will you be reviwing one of their spa boxes? I’m very interested in what they contain. Thanks

Hey Liz – will you be reviewing the new Decoterie decor box? I was thinking about subscribing to Burke Decor but then I found out about that one and was intrigued.

I loved the June box and was able to use everything in it. I really like the tea towel in this box but I know the wine bottle and electric spice mills would just end up being unused clutter in my cabinets. I’ll skip buying this month but I’m looking forward to seeing next month’s box!

Do all subscribers receive the same items each month? I received the hand towel and bowl , and Turkish Towel that Liz did last month but in different colors. I also did not get a list of items or a detail sheet last month.

I HATE this box. I wrote them and told them to cancel if this is the kind of stuff they were going to send. I have four salt and pepper grinders and I don’t cook or drink. I was interested in decor items, not kitchen items. I was soooo disappointed in this, mine will be going up on EBay.

I liked June’s box a lot better, this is too ‘black and white’ I like more colorful things.

The “wine” bottle is a porcelain bottle modeled after a wine bottle and meant for olive oil (which explains the spout.) If you Google it you’ll find much more info than they give you on the sheet Burke includes.

Liz- could you explain more about the bottle? Why do you call it a “bottle” (in quotes)? Is it meant for wine (which would be weird, right?), or is it a wine-bottle shaped container that you could use for other things? Thnx.

Six AAA batteries!?! Dang! I was thinking of giving them to my Dad since he just told me his pepper grinder broke. Guess I’ll have to stock him up on batteries, too. 🙂

That’s a good idea about using the bottle as a vase! Although the bf was talking about making his own dressing.

I’m glad to see that there are variants of the towels going out. I love the one you received! 🙂

Six AAA batteries each?!? Yikes.

That looks great. I’m glad I signed up for the every month box! I’ve been looking for a nice Salt and pepper set and those look amazing and high quality! I’m so excited. I hope I get my shipping notice soon 🙂

I like your box, I was thinking of trying this one out.
