Chanel Factory 5 Collection

[ka3na20]

Looks like lot of stuff are sold out by now... but Guess WHO has them in stock????? “Resellers”
Most of these items retail around $75 but they are selling for crazy $300-400 plus...

Luckily, I was able to buy online the mystery box before it was sold out online. I really wanted the towel for my bathroom framed. I find the srp of $65 reasonable considering the hand lotion is already $55 so I just paid $10 for the collectible towel, mini pouch and nail file. I use the hand creams anyway.

Yay! Can’t wait to see you frame the towel!
Gals/guys anyone who has great ideas of reusing these containers or decorating ideas don’t forget to share those pics here. I love seeing everyone’s bathroom or make up decoration corners plus I’m all in for “recycling/reusing” empty containers.

I ordered the water bottle, bath tin and paint can. I received an email today that my orders are shipped but it looks like they only charge one item in my order though it said they shipped out everything. I hope it’s just an error cause I really want all three of them.

I think you'll be okay! I was in the same situation as you (where I only had one thing ship out) and was super confused, but then I received three other shipping notifications later for the rest of my order so keep watching your inbox!

For the body gel I plan to use it like this ( sorry for my cropping skills haha)

I know you can easily copy or make these but its different when the materials you use are from a limited collection especially from a brand you love celebrating a 100th anniversary moment.

You've almost sold me on the mystery box. It's CDN$90 here and the cream is normally $70 so I'm deciding if the extra $20 is worth it for the rest. How are you planning on framing the towel? I was thinking a shadowbox frame would look kinda cool, I might copy your idea and frame mine too if I get it...!

ETA: Just saw your post with your examples. I love it! That's a great way to use the tin, especially. I wonder if it's more cardboard-y or plastic-y... (I think one of the posts said cardboard, but a YouTube video said it's more of a plastic?)

So went to Holt Renfrew Bloor - pretty much cleaned out. Only washi tape, perfume spray, perfume (L'Eau, No.5) left.

Went to Yorkville and had the nicest SA help me! And the store was empty, no line ups! All the good stuff was gone though. Some tin can soap, body cream, small shower gel, perfumes were left.

the tin (for the bath tablets) is definitely more plastic-y / metal, tin-like ! vs. the can (for the shower gel packets) is more cardboard-y (but durable and thick !)

Omg this is as almost as exciting as getting Chanel Jacket or Unicorn bag ha ha....
thanks for letting me share my goodies ( I think I went overboard too, but the smell is so divine, not too strong not too mellow. I mean even the empty out container smells so fresh and lovely.
One sniff is all it takes to get the aldehyde high!!! I went to Heaven “No 5”...
Bath tablets container is metal, Paint-Cans’ lid and bottom is metal however middle section is more durable plastic/cardboard thing.

I added some of my favorite Chanel make up brushes to show the display (brushes with silver/wood handle are about 10 years old and still going strong, quality is amazing, I do want to upgrade the brush set soon)
Please share your display ideas/creativity this is so much fun!!!

Great ideas! Waiting for your stuff to arrive and pic of your bathroom wall not to mention your wall will smell divine ha ha ...

It looks like they only shipped maybe one item, I would call them to find out soon and if they don’t have it on line then you can still hunt them down at the Botique.

I think you'll be okay! I was in the same situation as you (where I only had one thing ship out) and was super confused, but then I received three other shipping notifications later for the rest of my order so keep watching your inbox!

oh yes, I received the other tracking numbers for my remaining orders. thanks for the info!

I have an idea for the paint can - tissue holder!

I love that! I wonder if it would be better in the more delicate cardboard-y tin or in this tin-tin. I love that roses idea from before for one of the tins too.

eta: Oh, is the shower gel tin the cardboard-y one and the bath tablets is the tin one?

I finally picked my items up and also received my online order... lets be honest, I really do not like the smell of n.5 but bought for collecting purposes... doesn't happen too often either
