Grab Bag 2011 - Round THREE

Go Go Go!

 

Happy Monday From Florida!

GB 2011 V3.0 is on the way to Rodd. Weighing in at 9.5 pounds! Tracking# 9101785091401290301331

Go Bawx Go Bawx Go Go Go!

 

I will start explaining the situation to my wife. I can't imagine her reaction to thinking that was all for me.

 

GEAUX BEAUX GEAUX!

 

Luckily for me, I've done this before. The box bothers my wife less than me buying stuff :-| (better trade then spend money I suppose)

 

LOL... wife could care less about the box. Daughter on the other hand has a strange fascination with everything that is in the box.

 

Ummmm.....so.....ok, I just actually found a bag of post cards from the last round tucked under some junk on my desk. I will rectify the postcard situation, and apologize profusely.

 

The package has arrived! I picked a couple things out of the box, and have some stuff ready to go in. It may take me a day to get everything to fit back in the box though.
I open everything back up to take a picture of the contents when I got it, but Jeff just posted that. I did take pictures of what I took:

Edwin Jagger Sea Buckthorn soap
2 packs of Shark blades
1 pack of Gillette Super Thins
1 tube Lather lip balm
I haven't tried any of these items yet, and the Sea Buckthorn smells great.

and what I put in:

Hand turned zebrawood brush handle. First one I have turned in quite a while. It is drilled about 7/8, I haven't done one recently, so my memory is foggy, but I think a 22mm knot from thegoldennib.com would be perfect. Just epoxy your own knot and it's good to go.

SCS Arrimarse EDT - "Arrimarse combines berries, greens, citrus, white florals, woods, musk and oakmoss. It is a fresh and clean summer fragrance that is crisp and tart."

and a handful of small straight razor toys.

I will post again when it goes out.

 

Schweet! Go Bawx Go!

 

Rodd, very nice handle.

 

Thanks! It felt great to turn again. I hope the new owner posts a picture of the finished brush.

 

The box has wings! It is on it's way to Byrd.

 

Can not wait for my turn. Looks like a lot goodies in the box.

 

I'm really looking forward to seeing the contents of the BAWX change as it winds its way around.

 

The box is here!!!! I have good news and bad news.
Good news: The box has a bunch of great stuff and smells incredible.

Bad news: The box smell incredible because all of the TSD sample AS's leaked during transit.
They are now anywhere from 1/4 to 2/3 full and most of the labels came off. I will wrap the lids with electrical tape and re package them before I send it off.

I am at work right now but will try to get what I am taking and what I am adding posted either tonight or tomorrow and get it back on the road as soon as I do.

If they are the ones I put in there, I bet I forgot to tape them shut! They were in a baggie though... I guess there was a hole in the bag. Sorry Ya'll.

 

Pretty much everything stayed in the baggie...I should have clarified. No worries, the only issue is the lost AS and the fact that they are not all labeled now.

 

I'd go ahead and pitch the ones that lost alot of their stuff. It'll make the box lighter and cleaner.

 

OR....chuck them all in one bottle = Frankensplash!
