I love the message on the side of the box. It’s a good reminder that I am making memories for my children when we are having fun!

The theme for June is Picnic!

Dearest affiliates of the good life,

Because there’s something about eating outside that makes each bite better, savory with a sense of abundance, adventure, and joie de vivre, this month we invite you to take your victuals out to the yard, the park, or some special spot a hike away…

Sure, it can be kind of a thing to pack everything up and haul it out of the kitchen, but that’s just where the items in this month’s kit come in.

I am ready to have a picnic outside if it stops raining long enough. I love how the bottle basket matches the blanket.

Peace Picnic Basket - cambodia
Peace Picnic Basket – Cambodia

The Peace Picnic Basket ($30.00) is made by Peace Handicrafts, which trains and employs deaf, disabled and unprivileged people. The backing is made out of upcycled material that stands up against the rugged ground. The fabric side is soft. I took the pictures when there was a break in the rain and noticed no soaking through to the fabric side of the blanket. I don’t know if it is waterproof, but it seems to be a good blanket to use when the ground is wet. We will be putting the blanket to good use this summer!

I am excited to receive the Neem Wood Travel Cutting Board ($15.00) which is handcarved by a small cooperative of 24 artisans. There had been times when traveling that a cutting board would have made sandwich making much easier. I will be packing this board up whenever we travel as a family. Imagine how beautiful the board will look with an array of cheeses and fruits.

Color Travel Cup - India
Color Travel Cup – India

The beautiful stainless steel cup was made by Dilshad Hussain and his group of stainless steel artisans located outside Moradabad, India. They work exclusively with Noah’s Ark, which runs three schools, provides the families of 700 artisans free health care and access to clean water and more.  The cup is gorgeous. Are you ready for a refreshing drink?

Palm Leaf Bottle Basket
Palm Leaf Bottle Basket – Mexico

You need a refreshing beverage to pour into the beautiful Color Travel Cup. The Palm Leaf Bottle Basket ($12.00) is the June Basket Substitute. It is approximately 11 inches high and is handwoven by weavers in Oaxaca, Mexico. The intricate design makes it a stylish choice for transporting your choice of refreshments.

I extended the Palm Leaf Bottle Basket as far as I was able which is why it looks lopsided.

The June Artisan box is still available until it’s sold out! The total value of this month is $69.00. The items make for a great picnic theme and are useful. The colors are beautiful, especially on the Color Travel Cup. GlobeIn has been innovative in offering subscribers basket options and the ability to pick past themes. We will be using the items in the June GlobeIn box often!
