Late DokiDoki April Crate Review + Sakura Matsuri 2017 at Brooklyn Botanical!

Hello guys, Tsubaki here! Sorry for this late posting but things got really busy due to everything happening! So just to update, New York had their Brooklyn Botanical Sakura Matsuri this year April 29 -30th! I only went on April 30th due to my work hours. Below is some pictures I took along with some stuff I got <3

The sakuras were amazing this year! 

My favorite origami piece was the unicorn.

Everything was so lovely I took many flower pictures!

Got this cute traditional bag that I am highly using for my portable phone charger, a mini kendama and a box of these awesome Royce white chocolate covered chips. I highly recommend the chips they are so good and you don't need to eat all of them to enjoy it!

Onward to the DokiDoki Crate! I must say sorry for not having the YumeTwins Crate here because it did not come in and will hopefully get a replacement box.

This crate came with a lovely flower pen, a cute Rillakuma pouch, a Sentimental Circus face cloth, a super soft kitty plush, a hair scrunchy featuring one of the Disney princesses, a very nice note pad featuring the got to see movie Your Name and the cute monthly Hoppe chan! The note pad came just in time because I needed one for all the stuff I was doing plus the design is very nice and soft colored.

I got the Belle scrunchy which is great because I like Belle! Only thing I am worried about is that the lettering coming off because it isn't stitched on so there is a chance of it peeling off after a while.

The Sentimental Circus cloth is the reason why I really wanted this month's DokiDoki crate! I love Sentimental Circus and it is kinda hard to get here in the States. I love the design and if I could I would buy the rest of the different cloths of all the characters! But until then at least I got cute Mouton <3

Last is this cute fluffy kitty! I love it because unlike other plushies of this size it doesn't have beans in its tummy so its fully squishy!

Overall I really liked this crate. I hope more Sentimental Circus items comes to more kawaii crates because I love San-X products and feel like it really should be more advertised and known!

January YumeTwins and DokiDoki crates!

Hello everybody! Tsubaki here and back with some more kawaii crates! I just hope the Sanrio crate will be shipped since I can not get the next Sanrio crate because of bills.

But lets start with YumeTwins because they arrived first!

The inside of the box is so cute with the purple and teal and little unicorns <3

The theme this month is New Year!

First is the Rillakkuma New Year Mochi which has two mochi inside which you bake and also a little Rillakkuma mini figure! The mochi was good I ate both because it was the 2nd week of January! 

Next up is this cute and much needed Rillakkuma shampoo bottle which is a great size because it can fit a great amount of shampoo in here.

The main attraction of this crate is the Sailor Moon plushie! I got Sailor Moon!

Next is the Tsum Tsum cosmetic pouch which I need because I got more makeup brushes and such! Very cute and a god sizie for lip sticks and brushes,

Last but not least are these soft and cute Sanrio cozy socks! I got PomPomPurin which I adore! I always need more fuzzy socks so this is a plus! 

What is also awesome is on the community page in the book the crate comes with one of my pictures was in it this time! Yay!

Onward to DokiDoki!

There theme was New Year's Resolutions!

From the top left is Julie: Shogatsu edition which is a suer cute plushie that will give you prosperity and success! 

On the right is the Nekomimi headband and its super soft and you use it to keep your hair out your face! Great if you do a lot of facials at home.

Below the plush is fortune candy, Genji pie cookies and yogurt candy because the AMUSE cat purse was selected for inspections by US customs. I love all the snacks especially the yogurt candy because they taste really good.

Next is the biscuit pen which is great because it is small and you can hook it on your bag so when you need a pen you got it! 

Our monthly Hoppe chan is dressed as Mont Fuji! 

All the way on the right is a macaron case which I am using to hold some small stuff. Very cute and very useful for small items you need to keep on your desk.

Last is the very well needed relax panda hand rest which is awesome for any desk! 

I hope that everyone is having a great start to this year! I will try by best to keep this flow of blogs coming since I am going to have a load of work to do starting next week.

Until next blog!

Japan Crate Order Review plus Update

Hello everybody! Tsubaki here and I am back with another review from Japan Crate, more specifically the Japan Crate Store! The last DokiDoki crate I reviewed came with a coupon for 50% off so I got a few cute items that I didn't have a chance to get because they were from previous crates I didn't get. Currently their online store is having a Holiday sale as well for 50% so if you really wanted any of the items I reviewed but didn't get the crate, this is your chance to get it!

Now let us get started on what I got from Japan Crate Store.

I got three items and they are from left to right, The Homeroom Bear ID/Pass Holder, Take Omo: Spooky Style and below is the Chocolate Dipped Biscuit Pen!

The Homeroom Bear ID Holder is so soft and cute and has a snap on the top so you can put it anywhere. Mostly it would be good to put it on your bag so you won't have to take it out when you are tapping your ID to get into school.

The Take Omo Spooky Style I got is the vamipre one which is called Omo. I just loved how Halloween themed it is so I needed it for my collection of little plushies I have all over my desk. The other option which was sold out when I looked is the Frankenstein one which is called Take. 

Last but not least is the Pocky pen/ Chocolate dipped biscuit pen. I love how it looks and I love Pocky so much. When I could I would buy and try all new flavors of Pocky and recommend some to other people. What is great about this pen is not just the fact that it is cute but you can take pen stick out so you can refill it! Mostly cute pens are like a one time use or mostly for decoration so this is awesome because now I can keep using it forever! Also the wrapping the pen was in is so cute that I might reuse it.

Overall if you want to get someone a sweet little gift and you know they love cute functional items I suggest you get it form there while the sale is going on. <3

Now I finally can update you guys on something I got from Yume Twins in September which was the Sanrio bath bomb! I got the Hello Kitty one and I finally used it! To my surprise I did get the gold colored figure which was in the bath bomb!  

It is super cute and smells great from the bath bomb. 

That is all for now but I will try to update you guys in more awesome stuff later, until then be happy!

Happy New Year with December Crates and Hamee Phone case Review!

Hello everybody and Happy New Year! I know this post is a bit late since its now January but I haven't done the December crates for DokiDoki and Yumetwins. Also hopefully soon I will do a review for the new Sanrio crate, it is just it will be delayed due to shipping issues. 

First off is Yume Twins!

A nice Christmas themed crate we have.

Came with a lot of goodies. especially since Yume Twins is going to improve on a lot of stuff they have including the items they put in the crate.

First thing I was head over heels for was the Rillakuma hand towel! It is so cute and i still don't want to use it because I just want it for myself!

From left to right we have the Snoopy Pocket mirror which had a variety of 12 different designs you could have gotten! I like small mirrors because I already carry a lot of stuff in my bag. Below that is the Amuse Kotoritai Kinchaku pouch and I got the yellow one which is one out of five. Next is the cute Mame Shiba Inu Smartphone Cleaner which was one of four designs. I currently have it on my new phone case which I will show later! Below that is a Christmas Bath Soak which smells amazing from the packaging! Last is the decorative tape featuring The Return of Lum which is one of eight designs and a Woodstock plushie! There was a chance of getting one og the four Peanuts plushies but I am so happy I got Woodstock <3

The main item of this crate which was spoiled early is the Neko Atsume Plushie Hat! I got Tubbs and it was one of three cats you could have gotten! It is soft and straps under your chin! 

This crate is amazing considering that there were so many different designs for the items you could have gotten. I think the randomness is what makes it enjoyable! 

Next is DokiDoki!

This crate marks the 1st year anniversary for DokiDoki! How exciting!

There was some awesome items in this one! Starting from the left we have Paw gloves which are so amazing that I use them everyday since it is cold here! The gloves are so soft and they are easy to type with so you don't even have to take them off! Next is a cute fluffy pink pen which is always needed since I run out of pens. Up top is Hoppe Chan on a cute Christmas cupcake! Following is Calvin from the Homebear series. You could have gotten Calvin or CoCo in the crate. The small Loppy next to it is a squeaker toy which is adorable because I have squeaking things. Just be careful its easy to use since it is so small! Next is a very useful Loppy Eco Bag! I use this so much and I think its awesome they had this because using plastic bags is quite a pain. Next is the cute Mame shiba cellphone cleaner which is so cute that I haven't found a place for it yet! Hopefully I will. And last is a cute organizer for the New Year!

A closer look at the box since its so cute. But overall much love for DokiDoki since they have such neat surprises in their crates and hope they will continue to go strong!

Last review for the day is the Hamee Plie Trouver Phone Case for IPhone 6s!

I got it in a light green color and the design of it is so simple but very pretty. There is a slot holder in the back that allows the card to be scanned if needed and the front features a stripe where if you swipe it you can pick of your calls without opening your phone case! This is one of the best cases I had in a while and really wanted to treat myself to a decent case for my phone. I highly recommend this case for IPhone users that want a dairy case, the little ring to place phone charms on and great accessibly with calls while looking amazing! 

Thank you for coming by and I hope your New Year is starting off great! Until next time!
