    Kawaii box reveal and giveaway

    November 16, 2017 - By 

    I’m so excited to share with you the contents of a Kawaii Box today. As you know, I *LOVE* subscription boxes. I think I could happily sit and open them all day. My kids love them too, so were happy to sit and help me open the latest Kawaii Box. What’s inside the latest Kawaii Box? The November 2017 Kawaii Box was called the Kawaii Thanksgiving Parade. Living in the UK we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving at all so I was interested to see what was inside the box. It’s been a while since we last reviewed a Kawaii Box. They…

    Japan Candy Box September unboxing and giveaway

    September 15, 2017 - By 

    We love learning about the wider world. My kids love to find out about other cultures and traditions and especially food! Monthly subscription boxes are a great way to learn a little about new products so we were delighted to be sent a Japan Candy Box to review at home. We’ve tried a few Japan Candy Boxes before, this is a delicious monthly subscription box filled with 8-10 sweet treats from Japan. I love kawaii – who doesn’t it? – and we all loved looking at each packet and trying to guess what was inside. Take a look at our video…

    Kawaii Cakes Biscuit Icing Workshop at Tatty Devine

    August 13, 2017 - By 

    Last weekend I booked myself on a really fun workshop at Tatty Devine. Although they are known for their super cute acrylic jewellery, they were hosting Juliet Sear and a biscuit decorating workshop. It just sounded like the perfect workshop so I signed myself up. I love wandering around East London, which is lucky as it took me a while to find the venue! The Tatty shop is tucked away at the end of Brick Lace and I kept getting distracted by all the colourful street art. They were hosting a super sweet workshop in their Brick Lane store with…

    Kawaii Japan Surprise Box from Asking For Trouble

    September 15, 2016 - By 

    I haven’t treated myself to a subscription box for a while but when I heard about the new Kawaii Japan Surprise Box from Asking For Trouble I knew I wanted to get my hands on one. I love Marceline’s products, she has a cute gingerbread range!, and have made a few small purchases before, such as this gingerbread couple tea towel. When I heard about the limited edition of 25 subscription boxes I knew I had to snap one up. Kawaii Japan Surprise Box Each box cost just £15 (for contents worth around £32) and includes ten items including a cute…

    June Japan Funbox review

    July 4, 2016 - By 

    It’s been a while since I’ve shared a subscription box review but a few weeks ago I was offered a Japan Funbox. Japan Funbox is a service that delivers hand-packed boxes filled with Japanese candies to customers worldwide. I’ve tried a few similar subscription boxes and they are always loads of fun so I was happy to try this. Last week our Japan Funbox arrived in a large box that didn’t fit through the letter box. I really liked the picture on the box and managed to wait until my children got home from school to open it. This is…

    (Unboxing) March Lucky Dip Club box

    April 3, 2016 - By 

    Like many people I love the first day of the month as I receive lots of emails about the latest subscription boxes! I like to treat myself to one a month, as they don’t usually arrive until the end of that month it gives me something to look forward to. It seems a while ago since I signed up for the March Lucky Dip Club box and I was so disappointed to see people showing glimpses of the box whilst I was away on holiday! Anyway, we arrived home yesterday and I was so happy to see my March Lucky Dip Club…

    Sockflow subscription box

    February 8, 2016 - By 

    I do love receiving fun mail which is why I love trying out and featuring subscription boxes on my little blog. The latest one we’ve tried out is the Sockflow.com subscription box which is a monthly sock subscription or sock of the month club, where they pick great quality, coloruful, stylish socks for you. A few days ago a colourful envelope popped through my door containing this sweet little bag. Inside were two pairs of socks and a little card with washing instructions. Now I have to be honest and say I wasn’t sure if the socks were for adults…

    Kawaii Box review and giveaway

    November 5, 2015 - By 

    I love subscription boxes, for me I’m happy to receive stationery, anything with a cute little face, new sweet treats to try or a littel craft kit. For me the Kawaii Box contains all of these items from Japan and Korea which is why I’m happy to be reviewing the latest Kawaii Box and have one to giveaway too. First of all let me share the contents of the October Kawaii Box with you. Inside my Kawaii Box was a Flan Dakigurumi Plush Pouch, a Neko Emoji Mini Mini Pouch and Finger Family Monster Pouch. There was a cute sheet…

    Degustabox September box review

    October 30, 2015 - By 

    This week I’ve been sharing my thoughts on some of the subscription boxes I’ve been trying. I adore getting mail and subscription boxes are just a lovely way to try new products, often at a fraction of the normal price. I read a couple of reviews about Degustabox and one blogger shared a code for a 50% discount on the first box which I used to save myself some money, normally they cost £12.99. I found the site easy to use and I liked the way they kept me up to date with the delivery of my box. The idea…
