I am really excited to share with you my first shopping experience with the @homesteaderscoop marketplace! It is a collection of Mom and Pop vendors selling their handmade and homegrown sustainable goods. There are no commissions or transaction fees so every vendor gets to keep every cent they earn!

Did I mention you can buy these goods with STEEM and SBD? Well you can! How about that? You can use the crypto that you have earned/invested in to support these ethical vendors as you enjoy the ecological goodness! Sounds like a win win? If so, I encourage you to jump onboard with supporting this wonderful
community and project initiated by @homesteaderscoop!

Ordering

I was immediately drawn to @walkerland’s rose sachets. I thought those would be so nice to place in one of my drawers. When I saw that she resided in Canada I was a little nervous to order . I had some unpleasant experiences ordering internationally before but I didn’t want that to ruin my chances of purchasing some sustainable goods from this market. I sent her a message through her store and within minutes I received the email above! She got back with me so fast with the information that it gave me more confidence in going with the purchase.

Once I placed my order I quickly received this confirmation email from homesteaderscoop.com that my order has been received and is processing...

I received another email from @walkerland letting me know she was putting my order in the mail the next day and gave me an estimate of a week to 10 days to receive it. I received it in exactly 10 days :D

I then received one more email from homesteaderscoop.com telling me everything was done on their end and showing me the information in my order one last time. There was also a nice message from @walkerland included in the email...

The constant communication and confirmations gave me a sense of peace about my order and it made me feel that I was really being taken care of. They make sure you are confident in their service! I love the way everything was set up and the smooth transaction was a plus. I paid for my item with STEEM and it was transferred automatically through SteemConnect right from my wallet to @walkerland’s. It was a no hassle transaction which I definitely can appreciate! 😃👌🏽

The Package

I was really excited when the package came! Before I opened it all the way I could already smell the rose petals. Then as I looked inside the mailing package I could actually see the petals. I thought

uh oh, the package got damaged during shipping. 😟

Nope! Not at all . What I found was an extra special gift given to me. She packed a few petals inside the mailing package so that when I opened it I would get a preview of what’s to come! I thought that was such a nice gesture. ☺️

The sachet was wrapped so beautifully in tissue paper and string ribbon. I love the added touch of the sticker rose button on my sweet note...

The Goods

I am very pleased with my beautiful handcrafted rose petal sachet! The fabric and materials used are of great quality and it shows she makes these with love and care. Look at the gorgeous details...

Here’s the back of the sachet...

Thank you @homesteaderscoop and @walkerland so much for my order! I am very pleased with the communication, the timing and the overall experience! Most of all I love my new sachet!

FIVE STAR RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These rose petals from the package won’t go to waste. My daughter is already thinking of ways to use them ;D

Oh and you ask if my drawer loves the sachet? Here’s a personal message from my drawer to @walkerland:

As you can see that is one satisfied drawer! 😄
