Last Monogram Box Opening....ever!!

Good morning, good morning! Happy Thursday! Today is officially an end of an era of the Monogram Box. This will be our last Monogram Box opening. This is our last Monogram Box. It's one of those bittersweet feelings about, um, I've done this for 9 years now, a little over 9 years, um, and I'm excited for the change. The change is coming to you in April. You are officially going to get the Style Box in place of your Monogram Box starting next month. So today's box opening, we are opening the March Monogram Box, which is officially the last Monogram Box. Um, you know, I have mixed feelings about it. I feel, I feel very proud for what we've done over the last 9 years. Um, I have loved this box. Um, you have loved this box, but I'm also very, very excited to, um, introduce you to the new style box, and I think you're gonna love it just as much, if not more, than the monogram box. And so I'm excited for the change. So this is officially goodbye to the monogram box, hello to the style box. Um, and also we're celebrating today because we're kicking off our, um, our launch of the new style box. And so, um, the team put together all of our existing subscribers are on the wall. So you probably see your name, you might see your name, we'll do some videos and stuff. But all of our existing subscribers are on the wall. Um, those of you that are switching over, staying with us and getting a new style box Um, I had some new subscribers sign up overnight, so I wanted to celebrate. I've got Mackenzie and Tammy and Kristen. We're gonna put your names on the wall, um, as we start the brand new era. And I, I call it a chapter, you know. I've been reading a lot lately, but this is just a new chapter. It's the same book, new chapter. Um, it's going to be the same great items that you love and expect from us um, just without your initials on them. And I, um, I'm here for it. We've done a lot of monograms over the years, and I'm ready for the new box. I'm ready for the possibilities that it gives me. It gives me opportunities to put different things in there that I've not been able to. I'm not tied to making sure I have one piece that can be monogrammed every single month. That kind of restricts some of the things I can put in the box. And so I'm very, very excited about it. Amber and I have worked very hard over the last couple months planning out your boxes for the rest of the year. You guys are going to love these boxes, and I'm really excited for you. So Joan, thank you so much. Like, y'all, y'all mean the world to me. Joan says, we're proud of your dedication and accomplishments for the new style box. It's been a lot. It's been a lot of second guessing. It's been a lot of work. Um, we shifted over, we rebranded This is the new box, which I love, and I hope you love it too when you get the first one next month. So we started out with completely rebranding, then we had to completely switch over our software. Today was the first final test. Well, it's the final test. We got everything over there. All of our teacher subscriptions ran on the new platform today, and they— it was seamless. So they're going to start packing those today here in the warehouse. And so there was like 3 parts to this. 1, rebrand. 2, move software systems, which I've never done for 9 years, even though I wanted to, because I was too nervous that it would cause a lot of customer service issues or hiccups with our subscriptions. But it went flawless because of the team that's been working on it. And then number 3, our third part, which we will do next month, Um, everything moves to the fulfillment center. And so, um, April will be the last box we pop— we pack here in Wichita Falls, and then May will be packed at our fulfillment center. So lots of big things have been happening, lots of big shifts have been happening. You're seeing lots of different things going on with the store, but those are the 3 main things that we've been working on since the beginning of the year, and I'm really proud of the way we've been handling it. So Let's start by unboxing our very last monogram box. Let me know if you're a subscriber. I'd love to say hi to you in the chat. There's so many of you here this morning. Good morning everyone. Um, tell me how you feel about this last monogram box in the chat. I would love to see your feedback. For all my subscribers, this is an ultimate box, um, so You know, we have 3 levels. Those 3 levels are going to continue on the style box. And so we have our, our box, which has 3 to 4 items in it. We have our combo box, which has the items in the box plus the t-shirt club. And then we have the ultimate box. And around here we call that all the things, but it is the box, the t-shirt club, and a matching accessory for the ultimate box. So I am opening the ultimate box today. So let's take a look at the very last monogram box. When it comes to you, it comes like this. So you see your t-shirt club right on the top of the box here. So we're going to start with the t-shirt club. And if you, if you know the, the hint around the t-shirt club, um, oh please. It's— I don't know what that is. Okay, we're fine, everything's fine. Um, I don't know what that is. Um, if, if you know the spoiler— sorry, I got distracted. Listen, I gotta put my phone away. It was like some urgent thing that's gonna happen in 30 minutes that I know nothing about today, so it threw me off because I wasn't planning on that. Do you know that phone distracts you sometimes? That's what happened here. T-shirt club. Sorry, I'm live. I shouldn't be checking my messages. It's just one of those things when you multitask all day long every day, it just happens. And you know, it just happened in the middle of my live. I can't help it. Okay, T-Shirt Club. If, if you know, you know. I'm wearing the T-Shirt Club today, um, Life Is Good. Let me show you. I put this on this turquoise, uh, color. It's a different brand than we normally get because I wanted this specific color, and I'm going to show you why in just a little bit. But I know that it fits just the same as our Bella Canvas, um, so I was, I was super excited to have this. Life is Good. It's distressed, it's got some dark green, um, on it. So this is our t-shirt club for the month. I've been wearing this like once a week since I snagged one when they came in. So I've been wearing it all the time. I'm wearing it with shorts, I'm wearing it with jeans. I'm wearing it with cardigans. Like, I'm wearing it every season that, that comes through our week. Um, I'm wearing it. So here is the shirt. Now, all of our combos— excuse me— all of our combo subscribers, all of our t-shirt subscribers also got the Life Is Good sticker. These are waterproof. It's perfect to go on a tumbler, on a suitcase, on a laptop, on a notebook, wherever you want to throw those. And then here's the other thing. I— they're really subtle, but I have on the earrings. I love these earrings because you can wear them with everything. And so here are the earrings. Our Ultimate subscribers got our earrings. They're a clear crystal encased in our— the gold, and they're just a— they're just a drop, like a really cute drop earring. So all of our Ultimate subscribers got these They go not only with this shirt, but they're clear, they go with everything. So they're just really pretty and dainty, and I love those. So these are the, the earrings that came in the Ultimate Box. Okay, now Amanda says, I love this color shirt, I love this color shirt, this box, can't wait to see what the new adventure brings. Thank you, Amanda, thank you so much. Angel says, love the tea, Casey, all the things. We get, we get all the things. Okay, so let's dig into the box now. Here's your kind of first look at the box, the monogram box. This was the reason I needed this color tee. I needed to find something that matched the pop of color that's in the box. I always coordinate the t-shirt to the box in some way, and this was the reason. I was like, I need something in this color family. So we're gonna— I'm gonna put this back because we're gonna start with the main item here. Um, we fell in love with this bag. Amber and I fell in love with this bag, and this is a gorgeous oversized tote bag. It is so soft and well made. Look at— look, stretch it out a little bit. You have to fluff it out a little bit, it's been in the box. Um, it's a great bag. This is a great travel bag. This is a— and it's so soft. And do you see the lining? Like, it's not a weird lining, it's a soft faux suede lining. And so it's got a big pocket on the inside of it right here. This is an excellent travel bag. Just throw that under the seat in front of you on the airplane. This is a great work bag because you can fit laptops and notebooks and all the things in there. It's just a great bag to have in your lineup for whenever you need, um, a nice bag. It's kind of a different color than I normally use. We went a little lighter than the dark camel color for spring summer, but this is a great tote to end our monogram box on. Um, so that was the main item. So that was what I started with, was this tote bag we had custom made for us. Um, and it was kind of based off of something that we had seen at market we used for inspiration. And so that's where we started. Then we took and we added a monogram to a key fob for you. Um, so the little key ring, it's made to go on your wrist. So if you're carrying all the things, we're going in somewhere, you can throw your keys on your wrist. Um, we monogrammed it in the turquoise color because that's the pop of color, and we did a straight monogram on this. So this is my first, middle, last name. And as the only person in the world that calls me by my middle name is my husband, he calls me Sarah Jean all the time. Um, and so we did it, we did it as straight initials instead of a monogram style. And so we did that in the turquoise color, so you can have a cute little, um, key fob for your keys. And then this is where the color comes in. I thought, what else do we need with this bag? I think of travel when I think about this bag. And so I saw these on TikTok, and I became obsessed with them, and I screenshot a couple, and I said, Amber, we need these. And so we had them custom made for us. Basically what this is, it is a jewelry, uh, travel organizer. So you can take your cute little earrings and you can put them in— well, you take them off the card, but you just drop them into one of those little sleeves and they separate from each other so nothing gets tangled. You can drop a necklace in here, you can drop a bracelet in here, you can drop more earrings in each pouch so nothing gets tangled. You could use this a couple different ways, however you wanted to use it. But then it just closes and zips up, and you can throw it into your travel bag, and all your jewelry is there for it. So this is a soft cloth jewelry organizer. So that's what you got in your, um, in your monogram box this month. So let's recap. Real quick, and then I'll show you a sneak peek. Okay, so we got this giant tote bag. It's such a good size because it fits all the things. Let me, let me get this box together here. We got a giant tote bag, we got a wrist monogrammed, um, key ring, uh, we got the travel cloth jewelry holder. If you're a combo box, you got a cute t-shirt. Let me not cover the whole box here. If you're a t-shirt club subscriber, if you're combo box, you also got the sticker. And then if you are ultimate box subscriber, you all got all of this plus the crystal earrings. Just put them right there. So this is our very last, um, monogram box. We have about 60 of these boxes left, and I decided today I would allow anyone that's not a subscriber to go ahead and grab a box if you wanted it while we have them left. So we have about 60 boxes left. So all you have to do is type the word link in here if you're watching on Facebook, and you can choose from the monogram box, the combo box, or the ultimate box, and it will put together a box for you and monogram your key fob. If you're watching on YouTube, Amber's going to drop the link over there for you, um, and you can grab one of these from our shop. They're only here until they're gone, and then once they're gone, they are gone. So this is our very last, um, monogram box. If you want to buy one for a friend, if you want to grab one for yourself because maybe you're not a subscriber, um, here's your last chance to enjoy an official monogram box. Now Who's excited for the April style box? I got a sneak peek for you. I also have the teacher tee and I have, um, the t-shirt club tee to show you today. So we're going to dig into that. Just type the word link if you're on Facebook and that will come over to your Messenger. But let's talk a little bit about the style box before I let you go today.

There's some— I call it Columbia blue in here. It's just a nice light color palette for spring. Um, so this is our April style box sneak peek.

Um, super— Amber's bringing me one so I can show you in real life. That's what the kids say, IRL. Um, here it is right here. It's a Columbia Heather, Columbia Blue, and it's got, um, a pastely pink. It's really, really cute. And if it's still cold where you're at, you can wear this with a cardigan, you could wear this with a denim long sleeve. Like, there's there's, there's, um, if it's, if it's not 95 like it is here today, you can wear this with layers still. And you can just think about all the sunny days that are ahead coming, coming our way. I'm a little nervous about it because we, we've hit almost 100 degrees here in March, and I'm like, what does that mean for June and July or August? Because that sounds awful. Um, but sunny days are ahead. So this is the first, um, this is the t-shirt club for April. And then also today, all of our teacher subscriptions are running today.
