She walks viewers through each item—a custom "Stay Wild" teal and leopard‑print t‑shirt, a 2020 shimmery gold purse calendar, a leopard‑print tassel necklace, matching pink tassel earrings, a leopard‑print hair tie, and a monogrammed travel/makeup bag with a gold strap—explaining their design, functionality, and personal appeal. Christie promotes the Framed subscription options (t‑shirt only, monogram box only, or both) and shares a link in the comments. She also mentions an upcoming Canada trip with a group of 10 creative friends, encouraging viewers to stay live for future updates. Finally, she announces a recurring Thursday "Tip of the Week" livestream series focused on paintbrush techniques, directs viewers to her YouTube channel for past videos, and wraps up the session.

Hey guys, how's everybody doing tonight? So this is Christie with The Social Easel, and we have another fun box reveal tonight. So if you missed it, I did one on Friday with two of my other subscription boxes, and tonight we're gonna do one from my friend Sarah with Framed. So if you haven't seen these before, These are super fun. I have Sarah's subscription box that includes a box full of goodies, and also I upgraded to get the t-shirt every month too. So I'm gonna open this in just a second and let you guys see what we have inside. So if you're watching, just say hi, let me know where you're watching from, make sure I've got the comments on, and then if you you want to be notified when I go live, you can comment "live alert" or "yes" or "live," one of those, and it will trigger to let you know when I go live so you don't miss any of them. If you've already done it before, you don't have to do it again. Hey Karen! Hey Debbie! So I'm super excited. My friend Tamara Bennett from Southern Adornments opened hers already. I don't know if she did it on Instagram or Facebook, so I'm avoiding all her social media so that I don't see what we got inside of the box. Hey ladies! So let's see what's inside of here. Let me actually really quick, I'm gonna activate my little messenger bot. Make sure this is all good. Turn that on. That's good. And then I'm going to post the comment— or post in the comments the link to Sarah's Framed in a Box subscription. This will just give you— it won't automatically sign you up for anything, but that's where you can go check out more information about it and see some of the cute stuff that Sarah has. So I think I've been a subscriber for, I don't know, almost a year or so, about as long as I've known Sarah, because I'm a sucker for boxes and I love them and literally love everything I always get from her. Super cute bags, love the t-shirts. She has the softest t-shirts ever and they're always trendy and cute. She made us some custom ones. If you don't know, we're all going to Canada next week. So make sure comment live alert or comment live so you can keep up with us while we're in Canada. There is going to be 10 of us creatives all together. You guys probably know a lot of my friends, but Sarah and Tamara and Heidi, um, Casey. So, um, we're gonna have so much fun, and we have all kinds of little secrets and surprises for you guys while we're in Canada, stuff that we're gonna do together. Um, so you're going to want to make sure that you're live with us. Okay, so this is the first thing. This is my t-shirt. Always comes in a separate little bag. And you can do— you'll see when you go to her website also, you can choose to just do the t-shirt every month, or here's our little hint. This is Stay Wild. I can't wait till Facebook fixes the glitch that turns everything backwards. But you can choose whether you want the t-shirt or every month, or if you want the monogram box every month, or if you want both, which is what I have. So this is my cute shirt, which is perfect for me if you know my personality at all. So I'm a little bit wild. So super cute, and it has my favorite color in it too. So it's got teal, it's got leopard print, and Sarah designs all of these, so you will not find these styles anywhere else. These are only through Sarah. So these are her custom designs and they are just adorable. So that's my, that's my t-shirt. Now, so that should give us a hint to what's inside the box. Here's my little card. Ooh la la leopard. This is inspired by the wild side in all of us. And I can read what's in here, but I'm not going to read it to you guys. Let's start with this. Oh, I definitely need this right now. Between myself and the 3 girls, keeping up with everyone's appointments when I'm on the go is really hard. So this is a cute little— isn't that pretty? Shimmery gold little calendar for 2020. Perfect for your purse. So that's number 1. Oh, this is too cute, a new necklace. Let me know if any of you guys already subscribe to Sarah. You may already be getting her fun stuff. This is a super cute— I'm gonna scoot back a little so you can see this. Now it looks really good with my workout clothes, but how cute is that? A little leopard print tassel necklace. This would be really cute with a tank and like a cardigan or a kimono or something with your little leopard print necklace. And I have the perfect earrings to go with this. I don't know if you guys have seen them, but they're big pink tassel earrings and they have just a little bit leopard print on the post. That goes in my ear, so that'll look super cute with those. All right, I'm gonna take that off and hopefully not twist it all up. What do you guys think of that? Send me up some hearts if you like that one. Oh, it's super cute little leopard print hair tie and Last but not least, so if you don't know what Sarah does, she does monogramming. So yes, she has the boxes and the t-shirts, but she does monogramming and that's what she's known for. So this has my monogram on it, which is CHR. So now I have a new little super cute travel bag for my makeup or whatever. There's something else inside. I don't know if this is just a strap. I believe so. So you could use this as a little travel purse or use it like a clutch. I like that it has this little wristlet on it too. I love that. So if you're one of those people who loses everything in your purse all the time, this might be, this might be good to have a little see-through one. What do you guys think of that? It's pretty cute. And then you have, I love how shiny this gold is too. you've got a pretty gold strap you can put on it too. I'm going to put this on real quick. So anyways, I couldn't wait any longer to open it. I didn't plan on doing a live tonight, but then I didn't want to see what Tamara got in hers, so I had to open mine. That's so adorable. So if you want more information about that, I have the link in the comments to Sarah's website, and you can do the t-shirt, the box. So every month she does a different theme. Last month, and I did do this box reveal if you want to go back and look at it, but last month I got this super pretty beach bag which I take to the pool and to the lake every single time I go. So that's awesome. I was trying to think of some of the other bigger things that I got that I love. One of them is like a robe, like a towel robe thing. I don't know what it's called, but it has my monogram on it and it's black and fuzzy and soft. So that was like a spa package. So every month is a different fun thing with her. So that is all I've got for you tonight. This is quick little live. It's the girls' first day of school today. So now nighttime regimen is a little bit faster so we can get everybody into bed. So I'm gonna jump off and make sure everybody's ready for school tomorrow. Trying to get back in our routine. I am gonna be back on Thursday. It will be during the day, so it'll probably be— let me check my appointments really quick and make sure I'm not telling you wrong before I give you a time. Okay, so it'll probably be around lunchtime and I'll have new hair again. So I'm getting my hair done in the morning and then I'm gonna jump on live with you guys Thursday, Thursday of every week for the next several weeks is going to be my, like, tip of the week. And right now we are doing paintbrushes. So every week I'm gonna go live with you guys and show you what a specific style of paintbrush can do, what you can do with that particular paintbrush. Last week was week number 1, and I did the large flat brush. So if you missed that, go check out my YouTube channel because it's on YouTube, and you can also go back through my live videos. But YouTube is something that I've gotten updated and I have someone running that for me now.
