Hi Everyone,
As most of you know, earlier this year I announced we were starting an Alejandra.tv subscription box. You probably saw the announcement on Facebook and could tell how excited I was to start hand-selecting my favorite organizing products and ship them to your front door every 3 months.
First off, I just want to thank each person who subscribed! I had really great intentions to send fun stuff to you in the mail that would not only make you smile but help you get organized so life could be easier.
Unfortunately a few things have changed. And it’s really hard for me to write this message because I hate starting things and not finishing them properly. After all, one of the things I teach is to finish the things you start. Unless of course, the things you start no longer work for you.
And that’s what happened with my subscription box.
As we were getting closer and closer to finalizing products for my first box that was expected to ship in July, I started realizing that although these products are MY favorite and would work in MY space, there is a chance that they might not work in YOURÂ space.
And if that’s the case, my subscription box would be your clutter. And I don’t want you spending your hard-earned money on something that ends up in a corner in the basement unused. Better yet, you end up with something you don’t even like. That’s just not in alignment with my message and mission in life.
Instead, I recommend you only buy want you really need in efforts to reduce clutter and be more efficient đ After all, less really is more.
Why didn’t I think about this before I started the box? Well, I did. But due to recent events in my own personal journey to stay organized, I now have a new perspective on living with less (more on this topic to come).
Because of that, I’ve sadly decided not to continue with my subscription box. If you subscribed, your credit card will not be charged. It never was charged. If you have a question about your account, please contact Quarterly.co directly at hello@quarterly.co
I am so sorry if you were really excited about this service. I was too. But unfortunately some things are just not meant to be. And sometimes we realize that later than we hoped for.
However, what I can say is that we have a lot of other fun stuff going on at Alejandra.tv that I am excited to share with you soon!! đ
Stay tuned,
Alejandra
P.S. – If you were curious what we had planned for the first box, the theme was “Limited Edition / Hard-to-Find Organizing Products!” and although the products weren’t finalized, here is what I had originally selected!! I’m still totally excited about these items!! đ If these products work for you, you NEED them, you like them, and will put them to good use, I totally recommend them! You’ll just have to order them on your own instead of me shipping them to your door! đ And if you don’t like them… well, that’s okay too!
- Bright Color Time Timer – Okay, so I have been trying realllllly hard to keep my mouth shut about this one (because it was going to be in the box) but I recently discovered that Time Timer has a super FUN colored timer that is limited edition! And after a few conversations I learned there aren’t many left in stock. I originally picked the bright blue timer, but the green is cool too! I love the Time Timer and now love it even more now that it comes in a bright color! Fingers are crossed they will one day make a pink one!
- My Favorite Pen in FUN colors! – I have to give the credit to Alina from UK for this one! But a couple months ago I received a fun package in the mail from her with a pack of my favorite pens in COLORS! I had NO idea they came in anything else besides black, blue, and red. Turns out they are easy to find in UK but not sold in stores in the US. After doing more research, I found you can buy them online. The box was supposed to include the purple and/or pink pen! #iwillneverswitchpensEVER! #thankYOUAlina!
- As Seen Nowhere Before PINK Cord Macaroon! – In my office organizing series, I showed my favorite cord organizers for hiding and containing wires. They are fun to use and are super cute (they look like French macaroons). You can find them at The Container Store in every color BUT pink. The box was going to include pink.
- Hot Pink or Aqua Door Hook –Â One of the “gems” I found at the International Home & Housewares Show in Chicago in March was an over-the-door hook with adjustable hooks running down the organizer. It’s hard to explain but it’s super sturdy, you can add accessories to the hooks, and it comes in a pretty aqua color and also hot pink! There is no link to the product because it isn’t available in stores yet. However, it was most likely going to be in the box.
- Colored Label Once Labels – I’ve shown my erasable labels on my food storage containers in a past video. You basically write the date of when something was prepared or when something expires. You can also use them around the house for storage bins, file folders, containers, etc. Well, the company recently came out with colored labels with fun designs. They aren’t on the market yet but were most likely going to be in my box as well.
