Cara Box Reveal | April

Cara Box

CARA BOX

cara (car-rah) noun   :   beloved friend
Awesome things in the mail + Meeting new women + Encouragement = Cara Box

Kaitlyn @ Wifessionals started a monthly box swap. Each month there will be a different theme. Anything from a season, to a color, to a topic (like fashion or childhood).

Towards the middle of the month you will create a box or package, specifically for the woman you were paired to send to, and ship it off to her. Your other partner will do the same for you. You can participate as much or as little as you choose which is the best part. And since you are re-paired each month, you can come and go as you please!

I first heard about the CaraBox in Feb and received a delightful box the first go around. Last month, I was quite busy so I did not participate, but I did this month and have met two wonderful ladies! I have really enjoyed getting to know both of these ladies, and I encourage you to check them out 🙂 I sent a box to the lovely Courtney @ Air Force Wife and Our Life, and the adorable Taylor @ Pink Heels Pink Truck send me a box! And I was super pumped when I came home yesterday to some awesome bloggy mail…

This months’s theme was Go Green with Earth Day being this month and I was so excited because I love to “go green”! Taylor was so creative and sent me the most practical and perfect box of goodies. I LOVE making my own products and had told her that we make our own laundry detergent and even wanted to start making our own chapstick (because I am obsessed) so she sent me the ingredients to make the Lip Scrub that I had as a guest post on my blog recently! It is absolutely perfect and I cannot wait to make it!
