Salt & Pepper Shakers from the Palestinian Territories - Value $20
These ceramic salt and pepper shakers are hand painted are stunning! You can really tell how much work and craftsmanship goes into every detail, and I love the watercolor look of the paint, too!
Ceramic Spoon Rest from the Palestinian Territories - Value $18
I love that we get a matching set!
If I could change anything about the spoon rest I would make the groove in the handle a little deeper - right now the spoon kind of balances in place. (That's a very minor critique, though.)
It also has a hole at the base of the handle so you could add a leather/suede tie to hang it.
Neem Wood Spice Bowl from India - Value $15
This is one of my favorite items in the box! I love the simple design and the material choice. I feel like this would work with almost any kitchen style.
This could work for holding spices, salts, tea, etc.
Ilocano Asin Sea Salt - Value $12
This month, subscribers could opt out of the regular basket and choose this salt instead. I love that GlobeIn offers so many customization options - this is one of those subscriptions that I feel keeps getting better with time and they seem to really take subscribers' feedback to heart!
This salt is (apologies in advance for using this word) moist, with a crunchy texture. It is best used for grilling, roasting, and finishing.
Verdict: This box has a value of about $65. I think that's good for a subscription box that focuses on fair trade and giving back. And as always, GlobeIn impresses me with their themes and curation each month!
This box also feels like it would make a wonderful house warming gift!
