Each box comes with a card detailing the items included.
Gold Foil Snowman Card by Lark Press - Estimated Value $5.00
I couldn't find this exact design on the Lark Press site, but I linked to another holiday card by them for value purposes. I really like the tiny snowman scribble on this 3.5" x 5" card! The gold foil details look so pretty against the stark white of the card, and the Tiffany-blue envelope is an elegant, wintry addition.
Pink Snowflakes Card by E. Frances Paper - Retail Value $4.50
This silver-accented card is about 4.25" x 5.5" and comes in a sage-hued envelope. I like the delicate watercolor-paper-like texture of the card. While this one is blank inside, the message on the outside is specifically for Christmas. I think my favorite part about it is the unconventional color palette of sage green, pink, and ruby red.
You Made the List Card by Grey Moggie - Estimated Value $6.00
This card is pretty darn cute. I like the retro vibe and the contrast between the icy-blue and berry-red inks. My family and I like slightly cheeky cards like this one, so it's a great fit for my holiday!
Season's Greetings Ice Skater Card by Pencil Joy - Retail Value $4.50
This card is soooo cute! I used to figure skate, plus this doodle looks a little bit like my mom, so you'd better believe she's getting it in her stocking this year. I love the playful style and the bright pink color, too.
Magnolia Crate Snowflake Keychain - Estimated Value $1.00
This keychain is just a little bonus item from the folks behind this subscription, so I couldn't find it online. (I just guessed at the value.) But it's super sweet and perfect for the holiday. It's nothing too fancy and doesn't seem like the most sophisticated quality metal, but the design is pretty and had me feeling festive the second I saw it in the box! It could just as easily make for a stocking stuffer if it's not your style.
The Verdict: I really like this little box! The fact that they draw from small, high-quality letterpresses and feature a range of traditional, fresh, and even quirky designs really appeal to my tastes. I also liked that not every card is Christmas-specific since I have family and plenty of friends who don't celebrate the holiday. All of these cards feel special and unique—I'm happy to not have to dig through the picked-over assortment at the card store this year!
