DokiDoki by Japan Crate! Subscription Review



Today's review I will be showing you another subscription box. This one is brought to you by Japan Crate, but the edition of this box is DokiDoki. They emailed me and asked me I would be interested in reviewing this box and I immediately responded with YES! I love the whole kawaii trend and I have a feeling that's what this box is going to be filled with which is super exciting for me lol. So let's get a closer look at what inside this box.

 
When I first open this box this is what I see. As you can tell these boxes are actually pretty big in size and they are packed very nicely as well. All of the products that are in these boxes are placed nicely inside instead of just being thrown in a box. They wrap everything up in tissue paper as well so it helps everything stay in place when it is shipped to your home.

 
Right on top we have the flyer that comes inside every subscription box I have received. This is where I will find all the info on the products that are included in this box. As you can see this looks just like a comic book. I love how they got creative with this part and turned it into a comic book. It truly makes this box already stand out and we haven't even gotten inside this box yet lol.


 
Underneath the flyer, this is what we are left with. As you can see this box is full! I am quite surprised with how many products I already see in this box. I am super pumped to get inside and take a look, can you tell? I've only said that about 5 times by now lol.

 
The first product that I found in my box are these adorable food picks. These are in the theme of space. As you can see there are little stars, aliens, UFO's and planets. These are adorable. I have never seen anything quite like this before. It comes with 8 picks, which is a lot! You can use these several ways such as helping you pick up smaller foods to eat, or you can simply use these are decoration when you are serving food to someone. These would be super adorable cupcake picks which Is how I think I will be using these.

 
Next up we have this blue squishy donut. This is adorable too. I has a cell phone loop on the back so if you wanted you can hang this from your phone. I must say this looks pretty realistic. I think this is super different. It is really squishy as well which makes this fun to play with too lol.

 
Next we have something similar as well. We have the same product as the one previous just a different shape. This one looks like a paw. I love this! This is perfect for any animal lover quite like myself lol. This also has a cell phone loop that hangs from it so you can attach this to your phone too. You could actually hang either of these anywhere. Both of these would really good keychains just because they are really light weight....and they would give you something to play with throughout the day lol.

 
Next we have a Kawaii notebook.  This is absolutely adorable. I have also been looking for a mini notepad like this for my purse so this will be perfect. On the front cover there is a little chicken lol. I love how random that is and it is really cute as well. I love the size of this notebook too. It's perfect for small places such as purses because it's really not going to take up a lot of space which is important as well.

 
The next thing I have in box are these sushi wrappers. At first glance I thought these were cupcake liners, but I was wrong lol. If you look at the shapes you can tell that you could use these for sushi. How ever you don't have to use these just for sushi. I think these would be great for any other snack food as well. I think these are perfect for little snacks, because afterwards you just throw it away and then you are good to go. Anything that saves me from doing dishes I am a fan of. So I really do like these lol.

 
The next two items in this box took me quite some time to understand what they were lol. Everything is in Japanese and it gets confusing, which is why I am so glad that they included a cheat sheet in this box. Just so I am not lost lol, but this item is a blind box item. I'm sure most of you are familiar with those types of things, pretty much it's a surprise. There a few different things you can get, but you wont know until its open. It looks like the little figures inside each box resemble sushi and there little key rings, pretty adorable if I do say so myself. I'm not a huge fan of sushi but one of my really good friends are so I'm sure she would really appreciate this item. That's why I decided not to open up this one for all of you.

 
The next thing in my box is this little curry kit. I had no idea what this item is either, so I had to read my handy dandy little card. This is like those little meal sets. These are super popular right now. Pretty much it's like a teeny tiny meal kit which you make the food from all the ingredients in the box. There so bizarre and there are like a million different ones such as burgers and fries and so many other. These originally got super popular in Japan and then the U.S started making them as well. I have not ever tried one of these so I am a bit excited to see how this goes. The only thing that really concerns me about this item is that it's curry! Not exactly my cup of tea lol. I will be sure to make a separate blog post on this kit so you guys can see how it turns out, so make sure you stay tuned for that!

 
The next item I have to share with you are these adorable sauce containers. These are pretty adorable and super small too. This set contains three different tiny containers along with a funnel so you don't spill anything. I'm not exactly sure on what you could store inside of these but I'm sure I will put these to use some how. There is a duck, bunny, and rabbit. I love the creativity behind these. This is definitely an item that you would not find in the U.S, which is another reason I really like this. 

 
There's still more! Lol I feel like this post is forever long and there are so many things in my box. Up next we have some pens. These are styled like little geisha dolls. These are gorgeous pens. In the pack there were two that were included. One pink one and one sea foam green colored one. I bet you will never guess which one is my favorite lol. I think these are perfect, you really cant go wrong with included a pen. I am always on the hunt for pens. These immediately made a home in my purse.

 
The next item is a set of three disposable boxes. The set included three different patterns of these boxes. You really could use these for anything. On the front of the box it shows it storing food which would be a super cute way to pack your lunch, or even your child's. Simply after you are done with your meal you could just throw everything away. which is super easy because you don't have to worry about hauling anything back home.

 
The time has come where we are now at the last thing that was included in this box. For the last item it is.......... STICKERS! lol I am obsessed with stickers and stick them pretty much anywhere so I was actually really glad to see these inside my box. As you can see these are adorable, and I love how these included two different sheets.

 
So that's it for my DokiDoki box! As you can see there was a ton of stuff that as included in this box, and all of it was awesome. It's so cool to get all these items from Japan, just because these are things you cant typically buy everyday. It's cool to have a look at some things that come from Japan.

The Colour Polka Dot! Review!

 
Today I have a review for all of you from a shop on Etsy by the name of The Colour Polka Dot. This shop owner sent me a few different things to review. I am super excited to share all of them with you today.
 
 
The first item that was sent to me to review is this adorable Kawaii cookie that is made out of polymer clay. This cookie looks just like an Oreo and its so cute! I love how its small too. I think this is probably one of the cutest things I have seen made out of clay. She really did an amazing job with this piece. She sells these on her shop in a variety of colors as well, which is pretty cool.
 
Retails:($3.74)

 
On the back of this Oreo cookie she placed a small circular magnet which was a great idea. You can stick this guy anywhere and it would look soo cute! I am a huge fan of this, and as soon as I opened it I placed in on my fridge right away. I always get compliments from my friends about how adorable this cookie is. The magnet that she placed on the back of this is a pretty good magnet that can surprisingly hold a lot which is awesome.

 
Next up we have one of these headphone charm. I wasn't able to find this exact listing but I will include some of the same kind of products linked below. She does make a pretty good variety of these. The one that she sent me looks like an M&M. I now notice that you cant really tell in the picture that it is an M&M but I can assure you that it is lol. It has a small M on the front and it looks identical to one.
 
Retails:($6.36)
 
Retails:($11.22)

 
If you have no idea what a headphone jack charm is I will explain. Pretty much it is a a decoration that you can place inside the headphone jack to give your phone some extra decoration. I would say I am a fan of these because they can add a lot to your phone. I do have to admit that this is my first time trying one out and I am a fan. I do have to say that not only is this used for just décor, but I think this could double as some extra protection for you phone. By having this in your headphone jack you are now safe from getting anything inside the headphone jack which is pretty cool!
 
 
The last item I have to review for all of you is this bow. As all of you guys know bows are my favorite so I was really excited to see this little guy inside the package :) I'm not sure what the name of this print is but I really like it. It's not too crazy and its not too plain either. I think this bow would be perfect for pretty much ay outfit really. I like how she chose this one for me! I also like how big this bow is. Im sure you cant really tell from the picture but this bow is pretty long in size. I don't have any bows this big so I'm excited to try this one out. In her shop she modeled this one by having a big bun in her hair and placing this bow under the bun and it was perfect! I think that will be wearing this bow!
 
Retails:($4.49)
 
 
I love how the clip placed on the back is a simple alligator clip which is my favorite! This bow was made beautifully and I'm super thankful that I will be able to add this to my bow collection!

 
I am super impressed with these products. It's not everyday that I'm given the chance to review some unique products like these. I am super honored to be chosen to do so. I love this shop and the uniqueness in this shop. This shop owner is extremely talented and I really suggest you checking her shop out :)

MacyBabyQ18 On Ebay! Holiday Gift Guide!

 
I received this amazing case to review from a shop on eBay by the name of MacyBabyQ18
 
 
She made me this gorgeous deoden cabochon case that I am in love with! To be quite honest this is the shop that started it all with making me fall in love with cases like this! I ordered one from her a few months ago and I loved that one so much. I decided it was time for some change so she created this masterpiece for me, and I am loving it! This is probably my "girlyest" case that I own and I just love it lol. It definitely a case that is one of a kind and will grab a whole lot of attention and that's for sure lol. As soon as I put this one my phone, I instantly received lots of compliments and questions on where I got it lol.
 
As far as the pieces go, as you can see there is a whole lot going on.  There is a lot of cute little foods like lollipop, icecream cone and cupcakes. There is lots of glitz and glam on this case. I love how the glue that she used to place all these pieces down is pink as well, so it goes really well with the pink theme to this case. In all the empty space that there isn't a big cabochon, she placed smaller pieces like small rhinestones, and pearls. She did a fantastic job at covering this entire case.
 
I think my favorite part of this whole case has got to be this adorable Barbie shoes! I am in love with these and I think these are the perfect touch to this case. I love how she put these one. In fact these are real Barbie shoes!, which is beyond creative and really makes this case one of a kind.
 

 
As you can see from the side, this case has got some serious dimension to it. This is pretty heavy case but it really is held together nicely. Nothing is going to fall off of this bad boy, and I really mean that for sure. I have dropped this a few times, and to my surprise nothing bad has happened to it.
 
This is a picture of the actual case that she used to make this gorgeous case on. As you can see its just your normal plain IPhone 6 plus case. I really do like how she chose to make this on a light pink case, it add's to the perfect pink theme to this case.
 
Overall I'm impressed with the quality of this case, like I mentioned before this is my 2nd case from this shop and it's gorgeous just like my last one. This shop owner has got some serious talent and does such an amazing job at creating cases it's pretty insane. I'm so beyond happy with this case and I know for a fact I am going to get a ton of use out of it.
 
This case would be great for any girly girl, but she makes such a wide range you could find the perfect phone case for anyone in this shop!

PlushItOut On Etsy! Holiday Gift Guide Review!

 
 
I have a plush to review today, from a shop on etsy called PlushItOut
 
 
She sent me this adorable plush that is a donut! I am in love with this, its really adorable. I don't understand what the hype is all of a sudden with donuts, but they are everywhere right now lol. Shirts, pants, phone cases. You name it it's there lol. I think donuts are adorable and I think this piece is perfect. I love how this plush is made out of felt. It makes it really soft and cuddly that's for sure!
 
Retails:($12.00)
 
Each sprinkle is actually hand painted on. I love the colors she chose for this. It really makes the light pink (frosting) stand out a lot. The sprinkles aren't everywhere either which make it look more uniform and more put together. She did a great job at placing the sprinkles and did a really neat job with the paining process
 
The stitching along the sides was done perfectly, there are so flaws. She did an amazing job with this and that's for sure.
 
The back looks like how a real sprinkled donut would look. Just the plain donut on the back, I really like how she chose to do this. It makes it very realistic. The size of donuts she makes is 7.5 inches wide by 7 inches tall. This is a pretty big plush actually.
 
I'm pretty amazed with the quality of this donut. Most homemade plushes are not this well made so I'm pretty blown away the quality of this piece. In fact just because this plush is round this makes a great pillow as well! I have this on my bed now and just love how it looks, its the perfect pop of color! She also makes these donuts in a few other designs which is pretty cool. I like this one the best because this is the classic donut :)
 
These would make great gifts for anyone, like I said earlier who doesn't love donuts?!
