Blown away! Worth the wait and every penny

I live in Illinois(USA) and anticipated a longer delivery/shipping from myIrelandbox. Once I received my first box I was so excited, it was like Christmas. The booklet was wonderfully written and included a detailed description of why each item was selected. I’ve already used some of my items and can’t wait to use the rest. I’m also patiently waiting for my shamrock ☘️ necklace!
Looking forward to my next box and wanted to extend my deepest gratitude and thanks to the team (Katherine) at myIrelandbox!
With love, friendship, and support,

Since we received our very first box

Since we received our very first box, we have been in love. Each month we get a special gift and a touch of Ireland that warms our heart. I recommend to all my friends and family that they need to get there My Ireland box for themselves. Whenever I have a question someone is there to answer it. I'm never waiting it always shows up when expected. Again best decision I ever made.

You won’t be disappointed!

I loved my 1st box which arrived in April 2024.

It was full of homemade Ireland items. Mug, tea towel, sheep coasters, tasty jam & coffee.
I especially enjoyed the pamphlet from the owner of the company Katherine. It was about a day at an Irish Farmhouse and it made me feel as though I was there in the home and on the land. She tells it beautifully.

I highly recommend this for yourself or a loved one!

Why you should subscribe...NOW!

I normally do not get subscriptions. But, after a trip of a lifetime to Ireland last summer I wanted to get something that would remind me of my wonderful trip. I subscribed for 3 months because I wanted to give the subscription a fair shot and...IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Katherine does a SUPERB job with the themes of the boxes and her pamphlets are phenomenal. They are the first thing I go to now. The quality of the merchandise is first-rate. The April themed box with coffee, scone mix and jam was over the top. I am definitely extending my subscription to 12 months and this is something for me and my mental health! Thank you for your hard work and I hope to make another trip to Ireland soon.

Waking up within The Irish farmhouse has been a pleasure.

I am so pleased with my "Waking up within the lIrish Farmhouse box". My husband loved the mug and wanted me to ask, if we can order a complete setting. The mug is cleaned and ready for his coffee every morning. What a beautiful scene....it makes us both smile just to look at it. Would you believe that he just asked me what a scone was a few days before the box arrived. What a joy the stories of the The Bean AnTi' are. The Bogs are facinating, never heard about those. So much more to enjoy...the jam, the coffee, the sheep coaster are delightful. What more can I compliment on this box! I absolutely adore it and changed my 3 month subscription to 12 months. It is Christmas every month at my home. Thank you so much for this wee little piece of Ireland every month.

its my little tickle every month to get my box and wonder what it is in it. i have been very happy with it and plan to continue getting it. you know that little book of Irish history from the last month? i wish... just saying, you had something like that celebrating the artists of Ireland, the writers, poets, actors, the rich tales told only by the Irish are beloved to me. At 70 I have only NOW, with his passing, discovered Shane MacGowan. What an interesting, wild! man with words that can break your heart or tap your feet. thats an Irish gift right there!

Please kindly note that customer service does not reply automatically to a query. We are a small business in Ireland and will reply to you well within 24 hours.

Please also note that if you ordered on 15 March, it is the April MyIrelandBox that ships to you. That has now shipped, always within the first ten days of the month, and you should have tracking by now.

Please also note that when you order a 3 month plan, 3 MyIrelandBoxes do not ship at once to you. As you ordered on 15 March, the April, May and June MyIrelandBoxes, each shipping during their respective months and indeed during the first ten days of those months, will be sent to you. This is clear when purchasing.

Customer service will have replied to you of course by now. They are very efficient, as is noted below in previous 5 star reviews

I would not recommend this subscription

From the get go I was extremely disappointed with the contents. This box is extremely expensive and usually only contains a handful of items. Usually a couple of edibles ( chips, candy) , 1 piece of cheap costume jewelry and maybe 1 wearable such as an apron, or a scarf, or a hat. It is by no means overflowing. It does not seem worth the cost.
Additionally, I have never been able to log into my account and the company has not fixed it. Some of the correspondance has taken at least two days.
Lastly, when I signed up I was supposed to get a free necklace. I have never received it.
I would not recommend this subscription service because it is too expensive and I don't feel the customer service was adequate.
I also feel that the items they send can easily be found online. It would be more interesting if they include hard to find or items from Irish companies that don't ship to the US.

Dear past MyIrelandBox member,

Firstly I would like to point out that simply, I think MyIrelandBox is not ‘for you’. It is however certainly for the myriad of members who have left 5 star reviews below, pointing to how much joy it brings to them.
It is also noted by our members, as outlined in many reviews below, and above, that MyIrelansBox contains quality items, and many of them. In fact there is often more than 6 items per MyIrelandBox each month, there can be a dozen sometimes. We would never include cheap costume jewellery - we only curate choosing the best makers in Ireland.
We don’t intend for our MyIrelandBoxes to be ‘overflowing’ with cheap items - we like quality here at MyIrelandBox, as do our treasured members.
Jovana, & Thomas and I (Katharine) are alway here to help with any issues with an account or change of address - anything that’s needed, and we see ourselves as efficient in that regard, as has been noted in reviews below.
The free necklace is a gift from me to all new 3 month plan members. (Currently whilst the offer is there).
It is always given to new 3 month members, currently.
We do not give it to monthly only members. The gift to 6 & 12 month members are monthly discounts.

You will note from reviews below, that the surprises that we choose are thoughtfully curated and many are made exclusively for MyIrelandBox by the Irish makers: such as the candle made in Dingle that was recently included, the St Brigids’s stem vase and even the scarf that was weaved in Killarney.

Our members often wish to buy more of what we send to them, often directly from the makers but find that the latter do not ship to the States or Canada.

Regards from Dingle,
Katharine & the team

Recieved my March box yesterday and it is a great one! Love the knit beanie, the little felted sheep, the sweet shamrock pin, great scented candle and lots of yummy food. Made me so happy. This was my last box as can’t really afford to keep it up, I am 75 so new medicines instead. 🙂 But it was great getting these, thank you very much.

This Monthly Box is just full of fabulous Irish Craic!!!

Hello to our dear Irish friends. I gave my husband the MyIrelandGiftbox for Christmas. I have to say however, that both of us look forward to the box each and every month. When we pick the box up from the postbox, we bring it straight home, placing it on the table with almost a ceremonial reverence. Opening it with excited anticipation each and every month. Carefully looking at each item with great love and true feelings of returning once again to our beloved Ireland. We were there in Sept/Oct of last year and with each and every box we make a promise to return. We want to thank you for taking such great care with each and every selection that is placed so loving and thoughtfully in the monthly boxes. My Irish roots scream out with great joy just as soon we undo the beautiful green tissue paper that the Irish contents of the box is wrapped in. Thank you in advance for all the boxes to come!!

I love MyIrelandBox

I love MyIrelandBox! It brings me back to Ireland every month! I was lucky to visit Ireland about 10 years ago and simply fell in love with the country, quaint towns and the delightful people! I look forward to the box every month and am always happy with its contents! A little bit of Ireland every month is absolutely priceless.

Receiving My Ireland Box is such a joy

Receiving My Ireland Box is such a highlight of every month. I absolutely love the beautiful treasures that are produced by Irish artisans and businesses. Every item is so carefully selected by Katharine and her team.
The monthly booklet itself is such a treat. I have learned so much about the ancestral home of my maternal grandparents. I think My Ireland Box has enriched my life and helped me to discover my Irish soul.
