Regarding th meat dish being described as random. The theme of the box is European and marmalade and cheeses and more were sold in them. Dundee crocks are quite famous and very collectable. The crock is representative of that. I love the vintage crocks. Two pillow cases would be nice though. I actually have a mirror similar to one in box but hoping to find place for the other. Nice reveal.
I love the pillow case. It would like great on a bed with two solid color pillows. The pink flowers would be great in the middle of them. Also could look great on a rocking chair. My mom would love this box it is totally her. Hugs and blessings
I am really hoping I love this box more in person cause I already ordered it. My hopes were so high for this box but I have no idea how I am going to style any of this in my house, especially the mirror. And of all the designs those ramekins come in ( butter dish anyone?) why choose the "POTTED MEAT". Thanks for your review and I can't wait to see how you style everything!
I’ve been anxiously awaiting your video on this box. I know it’s always a risk to wait but I’m so glad I didn’t preorder. I love the pillow and the blooms but that’s all I would personally use. I have so many candlestick sets in varying shades and materials, I don’t really like the mirror or the box. I don’t need the little meat dish or the book even though the book is nice. The value is there for someone who could and would use all these items. Also, this curation came too late in my opinion. This would have been more enticing if it was released in March or April. It’s very Spring like and I’ll be decorating for Fall at the end of next month so I just wouldn’t spend $149 for this box this late in the year. Thanks as always for your review.
I would have wanted 2 pillowcases as well. The book was cute. Out of curiosity, where do you store all of your books? Not sure if we have ever seen a bookshelf tour.
Mmmmmm, quite disappointing and very cliché. One pillowcase is a no-no for me, and I didn't like the squigly quilty feel of the cover. Looked very crafty, like "look ma, I'm learning to quilt" or something. The mirror and pot were predictable and forgettable, and definitely no Versailles vibes (which is all about luxury, golds, rich sumptious textiles). The stark white was not in keeping with cottage style, again got the impression of chalk paint trift flip, rather than, well loved and piece I found at the vintage market. The single ramekin will probably go directly in a knick knacks donation box, a completely pointless object, or maybe cat food storage... The candlesticks looked cheap ( I am pretty sure you can get set of the shiny ones on Temu) and faux rose gold finish did nothingfor me.coppers, pewters, tarnished silver or brass are far more evocative of the cottage style. The flowers were equally uninspiring. Summer cottage garden is all about poppies, cornflowers, zinnias and hollyhocks, hardy geraniums, and generous hydrangeas. That bouquet was just few stems put together but very pedestrian. Cottagecore, and French country cottage styles speak about faded dignity, well loved textures and objects, mossy greens, butter yellows, warm creams and browns and powder blues and pinks. It's comfort and romance. This collection felt disjointed, uninspiring and far from the subtle dignity and charm of French cottage. They should learn a thing or two from the French box you showcased few weeks ago. Now that's how you do French cottage style. Even your cheerful and enthusiastic nature couldn't make up for this disappointing offering. I wonder if these boxes have had their time...
I think it's a cute curation. I agree, I would have preferred 2 pillowcases. I would have skipped the dish or preferred 4 of the little dishes. Those stems were absolutely beautiful.
Great job unboxing Sam and you look beautiful! 40 looks good on you 😊 I Dodged a bullet with this one! The DIY projects were also in the spring/easter box… I believe I got my Halloween box for $99 and that was killer. I’m so bummed. The crock is all that would really be in a French/European home, maybe the pink stems. Think natural WOOD… A mirror and candlesticks? WOW! How unique (not). Need 2 pillowcases not matching but similar design. That was based on her painting so I’m sure she could have come up with another coordinating design. Why not some lovely prints for the wall instead of a mirror? The BOOK was the only thing she talked about during her interview with DS… Pinterest works just as well 🤣🤣 Yes I’m being critical. $149 in this economy is a big ask for a box (without real purpose🤷🏻♀️) and a mirror that has nothing special about it. Sorry, just being honest.
This was my first time ordering a Decor Steals box - mine hasn’t arrived total with shipping and tax $167 - I am already disappointed. I agree a poster not another mirror and candle sticks and a tiny pot and the stencils will just be thrown away no need for that. I purchased this for myself for our 35th anniversary gift - yes no more purchasing these types of boxes for me
Put butter in it or melted cheese or use it as a dip container 🤷♀️ I mean you got to use it somehow 😂 Also wish they didn't write meat on it. Many people don't eat meat so wouldn't like that written on it.
Did you not like the flower print on the box or pillow cover? You never mentioned it 😢 Normally when you unbox an item the 1st thing you do is mention the print on the box and how gorgeous it is. But didn't this time 😅 Was it not your style? Also you look beautiful in that pink dress 💖
@@Thepinkenvelope oh that makes sense than 😆 I guess since I only have UA-cam where I watch your videos so I wouldn't know 😅 I'm glad you liked the flowers 😊🌷
Loved it. First steal it box for me, and it was a wonderful experience. Thank you for including decorate with me in blog. Always my favorite part to see everything styled!!! Oh and the box comes with a style guide too, which also inspires great ideas. Found a great video for making potted meat if anyone is up for the adventure: ua-cam.com/video/SdKzWQOVET4/v-deo.htmlsi=qFZU85-gWAEpUViS
thanks for the review. I was waiting to order until I saw it. I figured the box and the candlesticks were in here....that being said.....this European cottage box is going to be a pass for me as well.
I totally agree, 1 more pi!low case is needed and remove the crock thingy. I was thinking the box could be used as a trash can in your bathroom or line it as a umbrella stand. I wouldn't buy it cause its not my style.
They’ve had some mind blowing ones in the past which is why I jumped on buying this one sight unseen. Not my favorite compared to some of their others🤷🏻♀️but don’t hate it. Agree that dish is so random. Doesn’t fit at all🤦🏻♀️
Agree 100% 2 pillow cases or at least another that collaborates with that one. And absolutely NO TINY MEAT PRESERVER DISH..That wad extremely random...just doesn't fit in..I love your idea of using that box as a riser!..I keep thinking I may use alot of the decor around my fireplace it's the same colors..hmmm😊❤..thanks for another great video!! Your my fave😊❤
Well I ordered and I’m feeling a bit of remorse. I never expect to like everything in these boxes but usually there’s one item I love. I’m not excited for anything in this box. The value is there but the mirror isn’t giving me wow feelings like the half moon table or bench did. And instant fatigue over owning another set of candle stick holders.
Beautiful items! The mirror & planter box were my favorites. Well done on the curation DS & my 100 year old home! It doesn’t fit my style, but it is beautiful nonetheless. I will wait to see what they have in store for Halloween, Fall & Christmas 😁.
If i didn’t need a mirror in my home, this box would not have been a good purchase for me. What meat are you supposed to put in that tiny jar? So strange. 1 pillowcase?... for the price increase I thought I would get a couple wow pieces. I think my favorite items are the mirror and the candle stick holders. Maybe add the candles? The box is definitely too big for my kitchen. Idk something is definitely missing from this box and I usually love their surprise boxes.
The mirror is definitely amazing ❤ Big mirrors are expensive 😢 Put butter or melted cheese in the meat jar. Printed pillow cases like these come single 😅 Someone said use 2 solid colors and add this flower pillow cover in the middle. I definitely think some candles 🕯 would be a nice touch. Maybe add a pot and put the dried flowers given and then put it in the box. Just some ideas from me if that helps 😃
I absolutely think the value is there! I'm not sure I have the need for more home decor right now, but i do hope they re-release last fall's box, i missed it last year.
I think I will find a place for everything in the box but the little crock I will probably end up using daily so I am glad it’s food safe…the mirror is my second favorite…😊❤
I think Decor Steal has done so much better having designers curate the boxes. I ordered this time sight unseen. I am glad I did. I get mine tomorrow. There isn't anything that I don't like in this box. Usually I sell a couple of items, but I think I will use all of these....even the little random container. Thanks for unboxing.
I’m so glad I waited for spoilers. I would have been disappointed if I’d have ordered it for myself. It’s not for me. I hope they really come through for the Fall/Halloween/Winter boxes since those are my favorite seasons to decorate for anyway. Crossing my fingers they don’t replace any of them with repeats/rereleases!
Love it! But happy I didn't order because it would have broken my heart to have no place to put it. The meat pot I would either save to serve homemade Boursin, or get the hard dish soap and put it in it with the scrub brush. Or just keep the scrub brush in it.

Omg yes 😍
I loved it too. The flowers are beautiful 😍
Maybe that's what they were going for when they gave 1 pillow cover. 🤔
That pillowcase would be pretty framed if it matched your decor❤

Would have liked a vase for the flowers, but love everything else.
Gorgeous box
Yess 2 pillow cases
I don’t get the potted meat container! I think the rest is pretty but not my style at all! I love that pillowcase but would want 2 for sure!
Love decorate with me!!! Bring them back!!!
Not sure about this box, next time I’ll wait for the preview prior to ordering!
Cute box but glad I didn't order this. Not a fan of the contents. Would have liked more vintage type smaller items. Thank you for sharing!
I actually looked up that meat dish and there’s a neat history to it. People sell them on eBay. I wonder if it’s authentic or a replica?
Pretty sure it is a replica

Girl! Is that a dress? Where is it from???
Wantable! It has pockets too! thepinkenvelope.com/directory/wantable/
I would have wanted 2 pillowcases as well. The book was cute. Out of curiosity, where do you store all of your books? Not sure if we have ever seen a bookshelf tour.
I’m glad I didn’t order this one it’s just not for me and my farmhouse decor. The mirror is beautiful along with the pink flowers .
You make me laugh how you put your hand behind objects. Seriously lolol
I’m actually blocking my eyes. It makes the camera focus on the product and not my eyes.

Same. I'm glad I waited on this one.
Agree!
I think it's a cute curation. I agree, I would have preferred 2 pillowcases. I would have skipped the dish or preferred 4 of the little dishes. Those stems were absolutely beautiful.
This one's a no-go for me. I didn't really expect to like it because of the pink floral theme. Doesn't fit with my farmhouse at all.
Big no on this box

@@patriciasmearman1078 thank you! It’s from Wantable - thepinkenvelope.com/directory/wantable/

Love it. Definitely prefer a set for pillowcase. The box would be great for my canes and umbellas, once dry
I hate the sound of paper towels rubbing together. It makes my teeth hurt and gives me uncomfortable chills. I know it’s weird
thanks for the review. I was waiting to order until I saw it. I figured the box and the candlesticks were in here....that being said.....this European cottage box is going to be a pass for me as well.

Not for me and this is the first time that I’ve held back on a DS box. That book is GORGEOUS!
Pretty but not my style.

Ordered mine and cannot wait for it to arrive. Thank you Sam for the unboxing.
My box came today and I really love it! My mirror was shattered though! I’ve reached out to customer service. Can I count on them to make it right?
Yes, they absolutely will
I absolutely think the value is there! I'm not sure I have the need for more home decor right now, but i do hope they re-release last fall's box, i missed it last year.
@@acjessie6 me, too! Wished I had bought it
The distressed box would work well as a trash can in the bath or bedroom.

I would use the little meat pot for pate or soft cheese for charcuterie or as a butter keeper if I didn’t live in a hot climate. Would work in winter.
I love how it all comes together once everything was opened! In my opinion, the box is well worth $149 and the shipping price is amazing.
I think the pillow would be cute on a bench with a solid pillow also
Yes!
Great outfit for opening this box
I WANT that pillow case ❤❤❤
❤ beautiful
Loved it
