Apollo Jewelry Surprise Box December 2018 Review

This month I received a holiday card with a hand-written note.

As well as sheets devoted to each item I received.

The box includes an invoice detailing the retail price of the items included and the discount you received by subscribing. For reference, I said that my style was glam, crystal/gemstone, and vintage.

Apollo Jewelry Surprise Box December 2018 - Snowflake Cookie Necklace 1 TopApollo Jewelry Surprise Box December 2018 - Snowflake Cookie Necklace 2 Top

Snowflake Cookie Necklace – Retail Value $31.50

This necklace is handmade in California using polymer clay. It is on a 20-inch chain with a 2-inch extender and a lobster clasp I think it is cute for the season but I definitely don't think it is $31 cute- it definitely looks a bit too handmade for my taste, especially considering I marked “glam” as one of my styles.

Crystal Clover Bracelet – Retail Value $22.50

I find this bracelet to be quite charming- it is delicate but very dainty and beautiful. The bracelet is a 5.5-inch chain with a 2-inch extender, and it didn't snag on anything while I was wearing it. I wish there was more information about the metal used, however – I would hate if this will turn green with contact with water.

Apollo Jewelry Surprise Box December 2018 - Jingle Bell Bag Charm Top

Jingle Bell Bag Charm – Listed Value $6.99

This jingle bell charm is cute- it actually jingles! This was listed as a box exclusive item, and while it would be cute on your purse or keys I also think it would be really cute attached to a wrapped present to add some extra charm (see what I did there?).

The Verdict: This wasn’t a great box for me considering over half of the value goes to the homemade snowflake charm. I think this could be a good box for you if you really appreciate the homemade jewelry look, and to get the most out of your subscription I recommend being as specific as possible in your notes when you sign up. Value-wise this month’s box had a total value of $60.99, which is above the promised retail value of $50.

To Wrap Up:

Can you still get this box if you sign up today? The items you will receive are based on your preferences, so you aren’t likely to get the same things I did. When you sign up, you can choose your delivery date window as well.

Value Breakdown: This box costs $30 + free shipping, which means that each of the 3 pieces included this month have an average price of $10.

I am a staunch believer that pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza and when I’m not working as a family law attorney I enjoy hiking the Louisiana trails (alligator sightings are a favorite!) or relaxing with Duchess, my cat. I’m a sucker for anything labeled a mystery box and I’ve never met a bath bomb I didn’t like.

Hi Jessica,

Apollo Box here! We are so sorry to hear that you didn’t like our Snowflake Cookie Necklace. Our Apollo Jewelry Surprise Box Team thought the necklace was a good fit for the “vintage” style and it was holiday themed. But we totally understand why you would be disappointed that it took up a majority of the box cost. We’re so glad to hear that you like our Crystal Clover Bracelet and Jingle Bell Bag Charm 🙂

If you were ever to order another Apollo Surprise Jewelry Box, we would make a reminder to give you the glammest of glam jewelry pieces. We truly appreciate your feedback because we want to provide the best jewelry subscription boxes for our customers and take customer feedback very seriously.

Thank you so much for the review!

I agree…that necklace looks like something my kids would have made in elementary school. The bracelet is ok but looks like a Dollar store item. And, who wants their key chain heavier with that bell thing?
