  • I would give it to my friend Maria because she loves beautiful, handmade things and is an amazing person 🙂

  • First off, I love Umba Box! I would without a doubt give the subscription to my mom. We are both creative type people and I can just see us now trying out/crafting with everything in the box. I’ve been contemplating getting a subscription for my mom for months now, but I just can’t afford it. My mom is the most deserving woman on the planet. She does so much for my family and I’d love to give her this little surprise!

    Thanks abeautifulmess!

  • I signed up! I would give a box to my sister. She is always giving people amazing gifts that she makes so it’s about time she got something in return!

  • I would have the box sent to me and then divvy up the goodies to friends and family with birthdays, graduations, and other things that require gifts. If I fell in love with something, I suppose I’d keep it, but otherwise I think it’d be a fun (and money saving) activity to give it all away.

  • It would be great if you mentioned if the contests you post are available for international readers. I would love to win this but I don’t think that’s possible no?

  • i would give an umba box to my mother. she is the one who instilled a love for handmade and vintage goodies in me and i would want to show her what is hip now.

    Good luck to everyone x

  • I would give it to my four best girlfriends <3 It would have something to suit each of their unique taste & personalities.

  • I’d give one to my mum. She is so giving of her own time and creativity she deserves a treat now and again (even though she would never expect it). Plus she loves everything creative and handmade so i’m sure she would delight in receiving an Umba Box!

  • I love the idea of the Umba Box, it’s brilliant! My sister is handmade, vintage obsessed and I think she would just marvel over all of the beautiful things she’d receive every month. She works two jobs and doesn’t have a lot of time to do things for herself, I know it would make her day to get this special surprise every month!

  • My sister and I are crazy about this stuff! She lives a couple states away from me, so I’d send them to her!

  • I’d give it to my friend who also loves handmade things as much as I do 🙂 (signed up for the mailing list via a different email address – missymarie7 at hotmail)

  • i have a friend whose birthday is mid-january so she always loses out on presents-this would be a great way to make up for it!

    I’m happy to have found Umba!

  • I would share it with my sister! She lives on a military base in Germany and I’d ship her the things she likes out of it. 🙂

  • I would love to give this to my sister! She would love it as much as I would!!!

  • I would definitely give one to my friend Mary, who loves to support handmade whenever she can. And, because she is a craftsperson herself, she appreciates the value of a quality handmade gift! My friend Michelle could be the recipient of another one (or at least part of another one… she’s a bit trickier to shop for).

  • I don’t usually enter giveaways, but this one really struck me because it looks like the exact type of gift my mother would LOVE. She’s been a huge inspiration to me as she takes care of my niece and nephew (who were basically abandoned at a young age) and every time I buy her a gift, it never feels good enough. She’s done so much, despite not having a lot of money or a big house, and I wish I could give her the world to show her how appreciated she is. And this is just gorgeous.

  • I’d give one to a friend who has been having a really rough time the past few months.

  • I just wanted to leave you a note and say I really appreciate the way you monetize your website and incorporate sponsors into your posts. Random I know, but I’ve been unfollowing a few blogs lately because every post has a random product or sponsor connected to it and it ends up sounding so disingenuous. Your site doesn’t come across that way at all, so I just wanted to say good job 🙂
