I’m going to be honest here and say that I feel so dumb for not taking photos of each box theme before they went out. I don’t know what I was thinking (well, I know I was thinking, it’s 2:00 am and I’ve been packing things for hours, so let’s seal these boxes up and get them ready to go!), because I totally spaced it!
If you have a photo of the Beauty, Boho, or Color boxes, please send them my way! =]
Anyhow, a lot of people were wondering what the items they received were worth, and maybe next time I’ll include a little printout in each box for you so you can look things up more easily!
Here’s a quick rundown of what was in the boxes, what the items retail for (at the moment), and where you can get these items if you missed out or want to buy another one for a friend or family member!

Considering these boxes sold for $15.00 including US shipping ($25.00 including shipping to Canada and $29.00 including shipping to anywhere else in the world), I think these boxes were a pretty good deal! I kind of wish they didn’t sell out so I could have bought a box for myself!
I am so thrilled with the feedback and excitement we’ve gotten about Indie Gift Box! Thank you all (contributors and buyers) for making Indie Gift Box’s launch such a success!

I loved my color box SO much. Such a fab birthday gift – I plan on buying a box in August too… I’m thinking a Boho box, but they all sound so incredible!!! For those interested, here’s my review: http://www.lariatsandlavender.com/2012/07/indie-color-gift-box-review.html
