The subscription service runs $29.99 / month, which includes shipping, and is the perfect Christmas gift for that hard to please someone.
When you subscribe, you pick the theme of the box you are after, and GlobeIn will then source products for you from regional artists. Each box will include up to three items. And, along with each item, you get the story of the artisan and a thank you card.
Besides the subscription box service, you can also explore the wares of the different Artisans directly. To help you narrow down the search to what most interests you, pick the appropriate Artisan items you like from a presented set. You also pick continents you want to visit so that the wares from Artisans local to those regions are highlighted first.When I used to travel more frequently with the job, I always hunted out local wares as souvenirs. They provided a unique reminder of the trip that a pair of mouse ears or a t-shirt just can't do. With GlobeIn, they provide a similar experience but without you having to travel there. I really like the idea, and look forward to receiving an item from one of their artisans.
And, now for the giveaway for you. Our sponsor GlobeIn is offering here a three month trial subscription to the GlobeIn Box Service. That's a $90 value. You have until 11:59 pm EST on 1/8/14 to enter to win and the giveaway is open to Continental US residents who are 18+. Best of luck.
Email addresses of entrants will be submitted to the sponsor.
