Pipsticks & Agenda Lovin’

IMG_4807

I am so so so happy to be working with Pipsticks! If you don’t remember, I reviewed their sticker subscription service a few weeks ago, and instantly fell in love. We have since decided to make beautiful music together, and this month’s package was no different. I immediately wanted to rip it open and devour all the kawaii goodness it was sure to hold. But look at how nice I am. I actually took my time to give you guys nice pictures before the fangirl destruction (sad cloud face was placed to cover my address, not to reflect any kind of negative emotion – sorry, stalkers). 😉

FanMail Promo Code

You may remember my review of the newest geeky girl subscription box, FanMail. I absolutely loved the inaugural box and thought it was one of the first geeky boxes that is truly worth the fee. I got so many amazing goodies from so many different fandoms that I basically didn’t know what to do with myself. What could be even better?

FanMail decided to partner up with me, and offer all my readers $2 off their next box with the code: Mel2OFF! Isn’t that completely wizard? I thought so! I’m especially excited for this month’s theme: Super Sheroes. You know you are going to get some pretty amazing stuff crammed in that little box with such an amazing pool of ladies to choose from!

Remember to give the ladies behind FanMail some love too by adding them on the following social media outlets and telling you how much you love them and their company:

Pipsticks Review & Coupon Code

I can’t tell you how much of a sticker fan I was when I was younger. I used to go to Publix with my dad for our weekly grocery trips and I would immediately run to the sticker racks. I was allowed to buy a couple of sheets a week to use on my scrapbooks, crafts, what have you. It literally made my day to see a new pack of adorable stickers – ones that were puffy, others that were scratch and sniff, and, of course, the coveted Garfield ones! That’s why I was so happy to get a package in the mail from Pipsticks, a monthly sticker subscription service.

I didn’t know what to expect when I ripped open the absolutely adorable packaging, but was so surprised to see the amount of goodies held inside! There were 15+ sheets or individual stickers included in my envelope, and some really fun postcards and one especially pertinent notecard that I plan on framing immediately. I like that the sticker sets varied from cute and kawaii to big and bold. They are perfect for fellow agenda freaks and crafters alike. I can’t wait to start using them to decorate what’s left of my 2015 Bando planner! They were also really unique and clearly expertly chosen. I loved the design aesthetic on basically everything.

FanMail Box

I am so happy that there are so many subscription boxes coming out that aim at female geeks! It’s about time, in my opinion. Like most subscription boxes, FanMail will have a different theme every month and cater to the fashionable, yet geeky female. It is $21.99/month & usually comes chock-ful of goodies retailing at about $50 – what a deal! So what came in this month’s Fantasy box?

Well, a whole bunch of stuff did!!! The box was full of goodies, including a wedding invite to the purple wedding from Game of Thrones (who wants to be my +1?), a Toothless t-shirt from How To Train Your Dragon, Sorceror’s Stone Soap (which I’m sure will make you all sorts of magical), a gorgeous Legend of Zelda Hyrule Royal Crest necklace, Harry Potter nail decals and button, Thranduil spider brooch from The Hobbit & a couple of character pins from Once Upon a Time & Lord of the Rings.

I told you it was packed with geekery! I personally loved this box and thought that for the price, you really got a lot to choose from. Not only quantity matters, of course. I’ve reviewed other, more well-known boxes, and have been disappointed at their “filler junk.” What I liked about this box was that it had a lot of quality items that fit a broad spectrum of fandoms. For example, I’m not a Zelda fan, but my best friend is so I am going to gift her the necklace. However, every other item in this box fits my interests perfectly and they are not items I’m just going to toss. The Thranduil brooch is drop dead gorgeous, I love the pamper myself in the bath so the soap will definitely be used, I’m a nail art addict so I’m beyond excited with the decals and I love me a good dragon tee (in fact, I already wore this one to Florida Supercon a couple of weeks ago)!

Lastly, I loved the little added feature of a list of geeky media (movies, TV shows, comics) that you should check out for the month to stay up to date on all things fandom. How cool is that? I honestly can’t wait for what they will have in store for their members this month with a fun theme like Out of This World! Interested? Make sure to sign up – spots are filling up quickly!
