Quirky Crate August 2020 Review
Quirky Crate samples one item from a featured artist or brand each month. This month features the creative design business, Sam Jayne Design. This info card gives you some insight into her company as well as her social media info.
On the flipside, Quirky Crate includes an itemized list of each product and its value. This month's theme is "Pastel Party!"
Time to get quirky!
Elephant Socks - Listed Value $9
I have an impressive collection of Quirky Crate‘s socks; they are my favorites! I love the random colors and designs and often cute animals or pop culture references found on each pair. This month features a coral pair of socks with adorable elephants all over them. They are a shorter and thinner style than usual, which makes them perfect inside slip-on shoes or to wear around the house.
Fama Lam Nail Stickers - Listed Value $6 (Buy here for $7.15)
Nail wraps are an awesome and easy way to amp up your manicure, and even though I might be a little old for nail stickers, I still really enjoy a statement nail or two. The sloth and llama designs are charming, and who could resist the random doodle patterns on the nail wraps. The wraps are unlike any I have tried before. They are thick and the texture is soft, like a bandage. The adhesive stuck right away, but I can tell these will be flopping around, especially after washing my hands 40x a day.
Not my best work, as far as manicures go, but it is definitely fun to look down at. The stickers smelled faintly of pineapples, but the smell dissipated shortly after application.
Ice Cream Truck Purse - Listed Value $38
This bag is adorable! It is a little young for me, but I can't wait to see the look on my friend's daughter's face when I pass this on to her. She is going to love the hot pink details, especially the puff! She is also very into holo at the moment, so this bag is sure to rock her world. It is the perfect size to tote all of a 5-year-old's necessities, which may include a few Bratz dolls and her "yipgloss."
NPW Sloth Predictor Pen - Listed Value $6
I can only dream of living a sloth's lifestyle, especially with a teething 10-month-old! This pen spins every time you click it, landing on one of a sloth's go-to hobbies. Most of them refer to sleeping, which is predictable, however, I wasn't expecting to see "slowly comb hair" as an activity, but hey, sloths are all about self-care. The blue ink glides seamlessly across the paper, and it is generally very comfortable to hold.
Caboodle Enamel Pin - Listed Value $10
Quirky Crate kills it with its pin designs every month. I absolutely love the nostalgia a Caboodle evokes, especially in this classic purple and green shades. This pin fits this month's Pastel Party theme to a T! It has two pinbacks to keep it straight, fitting perfectly on the collar of my jean jacket.
Bubble Sheet Mask - Listed Value $3
SOKO Ready's Bubble Sheet Mask is meant to exfoliate and cleanse your skin. I applied this to my face, and it started bubbling immediately. This sheet mask smells like a delicious grapefruit! I left it on for 8 minutes and rinsed the product off after removing the bubbled sheet. Bubble sheets never seem to work like other types of masks do for my skin, but I noticed my skin was a little red after rinsing. I am hoping to wake up to a beautiful, purified complexion!
Sam Jayne Art Print - Listed Value $15
I needed this print. It is an inclusive nod to what we all long for in 2020: peace! The bright pink background is the perfect backdrop to flatter each skin tone, and the nail colors and midi rings add a modern, feminine touch. The print has a glossy finish and measures 6"x9". It is printed on a thick sheet of paper, so it could either be framed and hung or propped for display.
Ice Cream Coin Purse - Listed Price $6
My favorite local ice cream shop has a raspberry cone that looks exactly like this... all of a sudden my mouth is watering? Who doesn't love a novelty coin purse shaped like a treat! At this size, this silicone purse could hold many coins, but I think I will be using it as memento storage. I am a collector of nostalgia, so this can hold my son's first movie ticket or maybe even his first lost tooth!
The Verdict: August's Quirky Crate was a huge success. I can't wait to gift the purse and sport my new Caboodle pin! The trinkets you'll find in Quirky Crate make fantastic and unique gifts, and they are also so much fun to accessorize with. The total value of this box adds up to $93, over double the $36.95 + $6.50 shipping subscription cost. Out of all of my many subscriptions, I have the most fun unboxing QC, making it worth every penny each month; I cannot wait to see what next month's Halloween themed box has in store!
