Okay, you guys wanna see the bizarre and wonderful and oh so cool mystery box that landed on my #magicporch today? I had no idea what this was or who sent it.

But it weighs a ton! I mean, it’s huge and heavy!

1/

Okay, opening it up, is this leather roll, which says The NEVERS on it.

I have not yet seen the show!

I open the roll and it’s...

Really nice screwdrivers?

?

2/

AM I BUILDING ROBOTS?

I have no idea!

As I said, I had no idea this was coming, what it is, or who sent it.

Just that it’s huge and weighs a ton.

Under the screwdrivers is a huge, handcrafted wooden box. With this lightbulb symbol. It’s locked.

3/

Okay, so you use the medium screwdriver in the hole in the handle, to push a spring lock, thus ‘picking’ the lock.

It opens to these two lovely leather covers to the two sections...

4/

And there is a card, the package is a #GiftFromHbo, and #TheNevers and @HendricksGin.

Well, damn, this is some of the coolest stuff ever.

This is me opening the package!

5/

I mean, seriously, this seems to be a handcrafted solid wood box.

I would buy it just for how beautiful it is!

Okay, take the slides out...packing material on one side, treasures on the other!

Let’s look!

6/

Here is some of the stuff...

I can’t explain how BEAUITFUl this stuff is, metal, leather, solid hard wood...it’s elegant!

I included a ps4 controller for scale...handkerchief, poster, purple satchel filled with a GORGEOUS tarot card deck...

7/

Now, this little thing is heavy and gorgeous, but I have no idea what it is. It has a little prong, and then a shaving edge...anyone know?

8/

There is this leather bound journal...well, it’s half journal.
The rest is how to make tea, recipes, cocktails, and tarot instructions. Again, every page is gorgeous.

Oh, wait, there’s what that silver thing is. Illustration looks nsfw!

9/

Okay, let’s open the other half!

It;s a gorgeous brooch with a skeleton something, a metal tape measure (is carpentry part of the show?), and this wild thing, the pulb actually FLOATS over the pad, while illuminated. THAT IS SO COOL I FORGOT TO TAKE A PICTURE.

10/

And then the coolest part...

This gorgeous tea set, beautiful imagery.

This might be the nicest teapot I have!

Cups, saucer, teapot and lid...wow!

And a beautiful metal curio box with a tea infuser inside!

I LOVE TEA, YOU GUYS.

11/

I have to say...I looked at some other folks got a #TheNevers box, but no two I have seen yet appear to be the same...

They couldn’t possibly making these custom specifically, could they? Like some of the other focus on gin and cocktails, but I don’t drink, so mine is tea?
12/

The box feels like it’s still heavy.

Oh my gosh.

There’s a false bottom.

THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER.

13/

THERE’S STUFF IN THE HIDDEN COMPARTMENT YOU GUYS.

14/

Oh gosh, it’s these perfect little heavy glass jars of loose leaf tea and infused sugar cubes and they smell like HEAVEN. Seriously, this smells like magic, each one. Rose-infused sugar cubes?

WANT TO TRY.

Also this heavy glass and wood thing with a built in infuser!

15/

Okay, that made my day. What a lovely surprise. Amazing!

Thanks for opening the mystery thing with me, everyone!

Let’s have tea sometime! :)

Thank you @hbomax, @HendricksGinUS #TheNevers for the #GiftFromHbo! #Hbomaxpartner

End!

P.S. I am going to make some tea.

P.P.S. I am going to watch #TheNevers
