CroneCrate Unboxing: October 2016

We’re so #hexed to receive the October installment of our monthly honorary CroneCrate subscription. As you might remember from last month, CroneCrate is the internet’s only crone-centric subscription box that delivers all the essential cursed and enchanted objects straight to your hearth. Some of you might remember that the Crones That Be granted us a one-month gift subscription to CroneCrate as a prize for our Witchfinder contest. That means that you can win all of the items in this month’s box! Join us for a spooky #unboxing to scope out our October CroneCrate under the light of a waning supermoon.

 

 

Unfortunately, we dropped the product description card in our cauldron shortly after transcribing the text below — sorry, POMEs.

Once again, we’re sorry to inform y’all that you still can’t subscribe to CroneCrate on the regular — we reached out to the CroneCrate Marketing rep again to ask about opening up subscriptions to the general public, but she only threw her heads back in unison and emitted the most terrifying, blood-curdling scream we’ve collectively ever heard in our lives. However, as we mentioned at the top, you can actually win this month’s CroneCrate by entering our Witchfinder contest, so get to it! If you need us, we’ll be working on our bunions.
