Oriental Trader
Company Inc.
O.T. sent me this box in October. I am taking part of their Blogger Community Program.
I am just now getting around to taking pictures and posting about the 13 different objects they sent to me for free. I was pretty shocked when I saw this box on my front porch one day. I opened it up & thought they sent it to the wrong person because there is a lot of stuff in here & I actually totalled it up and it was not a cheap amount.
I should also add "this review is based strictly on my opinion. Others may have a different opinion or experience with the product I've listed. I was provided the sample free of charge by the company and I provided my honest opinion. No other type of compensation was received for this review."
This is the box I received from
