Hello you beauties!

Can you believe that it's almost the end of February already! I'm counting down the days now until summer (I'm getting really fed up with college now) - just less than 4 months until college is over! So today's post is the last post of the month and I'm really excited to get started with it! So here is this month's GeekGear World of Wizardry subscription box review!

As per usual, the first item I pulled out of this month's box is the t-shirt - something that we get in every month's box. The t-shirt in this box is one of the cutest ones we have ever received. It is called the 'Beautiful Beasts' t-shirt as it really is a t-shirt with beautiful animals on it. It is really simple and so really easy to wear so I can see myself wearing it a lot.

Let's talk about the print in this month's box. It is amazing, called a movie print. It features Daniel Radcliffe posing as Harry Potter and Eddie Redmayne posing as Newt Scamander (obviously this is to celebrate the release of Fantastic Beasts a couple of months ago). This print is the perfect addition to my print collection.

I was extremely excited to pull out the Wizarding World colouring book from this month's box. Some of you may know that I once used to sit and colour literally every night and I still sometimes do as it is a great activity to help de-stress. I also became obsessed with collecting Harry Potter colouring books so I am glad to add this one to my collection. The pictures in it are lovely too.

In this box we also received a Daily Prophet Reporter Journal notebook which I am happy to now own. As a writer (and also a future Creative Writing student), I am always in need of new notebooks and the detailing on the pages is beautiful. I can't wait to use this more.

Before we move onto the house themed products in this month's box, I have one final item to mention to you all. It is the Gryffindor Sword letter opener which is honestly one of the most adorable things I have ever seen. I probably won't use this (mainly because I don't receive many letters) but I definitely will have it on display all the time - the detailing on it is just beautiful!

Now we can move onto the house themed products, which surprisingly there were more than usual (usually we only get 1 or 2). For those of you who don't know, my house is Slytherin, so I was excited to see the green and silver Slytherin tie in this month's box! I have been desperate to own one of these for so long, and I even saw some when I was at the Harry Potter studio tour in London last year but I couldn't justify paying almost £23 for one! And I'm glad I didn't because now I own one and I didn't even pay that much for the whole box! I think we all know now what I am dressing up as for Halloween this year...!

The second house item in his month's box is a Slytherin (or whatever your chosen house is) scarf! I am so so happy to own this, and I know it's going to be perfect paired with the gloves and hat that we received in previous boxes. It's also perfect for the chilly, windy weather we have been experiencing recently (goodbye Storm Doris!).

The final house item and the final item in the whole box is a lovely little Hogwarts bookmark, that has a strip of colour on it to represent your house - so naturally mine has a strip of green on it. I love these metal bookmarks as I do already own a Slytherin one that I bought at the Harry Potter Studio Tour last year and I find that they hold very well in your book and looks very very pretty too.

I was really impressed with this month's box and I am still happy to pay each month for this subscription box as it is definitely worth the money. Every item in this month's box is definitely something that I will use. Definitely think about subscribing to this box if you can afford it!

I'll be back on Wednesday with my monthly favourites post for you all!

Hello you beauties!

I always get extremely excited about this box so I was so happy to open it up this month. So let's not waste anymore time, and just get on with revealing this month's box's content!

The first item (like usual) is the month's t-shirt. This month, it is one in your house colour, so obviously mine is in a green. A bright green to be exact. Which is not something that I find very flattering but it'll be great to wear on a lazy day at home. I just love the print on the front of it this month, with it being the Hogwarts logo. I'm sure I'll wear this one a lot.

The next item is a pair of socks, with these having your house logo on them. So obviously I got some Slytherin socks. I'm always loving and needing new socks so I am really happy that these are in the box this month.

There were two posters included in this months box. One is the Daily Prophet front cover featuring Dumbledore, and the other focuses on spells that we are introduced to within the Harry Potter stories and the uses for them. Both are brilliant and will make a great addition to my bedroom wall.

They also included a Gringotts Vault key which is something I am very excited about now owning this as it fits perfectly with the Galleon we received in last month's box. And it's something great to talk to my friends about, and great to have on display in my room.

Next is a tiny Weasley Wizard Wheeze's Jelly Bean jar, which I must admit I am slightly disappointed about. I thought they might provide something more exciting like a practical joke. Instead this jar is tiny. And I'm not really keen on jelly beans. Oh well, I'm sure I'll find some use for this item.

Another house product that we got was a cushion cover which is honestly one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I'm going straight out to buy a cushion to fit it so it can be placed on my bed and be great decoration for my room. I'm even going to make sure to take this to uni with me.

Finally, as per usual, they included a print in this month's box again. This month it is a Patronus print which looks amazing and I can't wait to put it up on my wall with all of my other prints that I've collected over the past few months.


If I'm honest, this box hasn't been the best but I still really do believe it is worth every penny I spend on it. I can't wait to see what they bring us next month.

I'll be back on Wednesday with my monthly favourites post for you all!

Hello you beauties!

Being a massive Potterhead, my favourite time of the month now always is receiving this subscription box! It arrived earlier than I thought, as I wasn't expecting it to arrive until after Christmas, but it actually arrived on the 21st. However, with so many posts already planned for Blogmas, I have only just been able to bring this post to you all! So I'm sorry, but I hope you enjoy it!

The first item in the box is the t-shirt. We get one every month and I always love them. This month, I'm not the biggest fan. I like everything about it apart from the colour. It says "Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home" which I think is really cute. However, the t-shirt I got is a bright yellow which is not really a colour that I like to wear. I would've preferred the black one. But I'll still wear it and I still like it.

We also got an embroidered badge of the Hogwarts logo which is a lovely addition to the box but I don't really think I'd use it.

We also got a Hogwarts crest magnet in a neon colour (I got the neon orange one) which is cute and I can't wait to use it on my fridge.

We then got a Harry Potter mug (a plain white mug with a wool-y Harry Potter warmer for it) which is absolutely adorable and I can't wait to use it for my hot chocolates.

The print we got this month is a Newt Scamander one, and it is actually amazing! I can't wait to add it to my growing collection of Harry Potter prints on my wall. I will admit though, I still haven't had chance to watch 'Fantastic Beasts' yet and I feel like I'm missing out!

We also got a Hogwarts crest keyring (as you can probably tell, this month's theme was simply Hogwarts) which I think I'm going to use on my car keys once I finally pass my driving test.

The final two items are my favourite things in the whole box. Every month we always get items linked to our preferred choice of Hogwarts house, and each month I always choose Slytherin. This month these items were a beanie hat and smartphone gloves which are perfect for the colder weather. I am so excited to use them.

So, as per usual, I love this month's box. I really can't wait to see what the new year brings to the subscription box, and I am more excited than ever. I would love to know if any of you actually have this subscription box and your opinions of it.

I'll be back on Saturday (New Year's Eve!) for my final post of 2016! It's going to be a really special post, especially for me.

Hello you beauties!

I had loved this box the past few times I have received it, but for a particular reason, I was extremely excited about this month's GeekGear Harry Potter box. And it's completely obvious why - it was their Christmas edition! I couldn't wait to see what they gave us this month, and I know you can't either, so let's get straight into it.

Of course, the first item I noticed in this box (and was extremely excited about) was this month's t-shirt. The one we receive this month is a red on with the 'Magical Congress of the United States of America' t-shirt, which links with the Fantastic Beasts hint that we were given in last month's box. Now, I have yet to see this film, but I am already so excited to have some merchandise for it.

Next there is the Hogwarts House Lanyard, and like I always do, I have chosen the Slytherin house for this month's box, so I received a Slytherin lanyard. I love it, but I have no real use for it yet. Still glad to have received it in this box though.

Then we received a Harry Potter piggy bank which is honestly one of the cutest things I have ever seen. I have a lot of money boxes (my pug one will always be my favourite) but I'm sure I can find a great place to display this.

We also get a Fantastic Beasts postcard, which is lovely enough, but is honestly not one of my favourite things in the box and something I doubt I will get any use out of.

The print for this month's box is honestly one of the best things I have ever seen. It is an exclusive for the best, and is the scene of a Weasley Christmas. I am looking forward to finding a special spot for this on my bedroom wall, not just over the Christmas period but all year round!

As it is Christmas time, I was not surprised that they included Christmas cards within this months box, and the two designs (we get 4 cards in total) are just the cutest things I have ever seen. One says "Merry Christmas Ya Muggle" with a very Quidditch theme to it, and this is probably my favourite of the two (and I think I'm going to send one to my brother as I know he will love it), and the other just says "Happy Christmas" on it but also has a picture of Dobby dressed up in winter clothing. This one is cute to so I'm going to have to send on of these to someone too. I am really really happy with this addition to the box.

We also got a Galleon in this month's box! I was so excited to see this, as I've always wanted to see what a Galleon would look like. It comes in a little plastic case to protect it, and is quite heavy, so is obviously not made of plastic, which is great too. I am so happy to own this product. Now just to collect a Sickle and a Knut!

The final item is probably the most exciting out of all of them in the box. It can specially packaged, in a box designed to look like a wrapped present. It was Harry Potter's wand! I think it's great that they include wands in this box, because who doesn't love collecting wands!? I am so happy to actually own Harry's wand now too, because even though he is the main character, I never thought to buy his wand (I already have Hermione's and Voldemort's).

So I was extremely pleased with that box again this month. The GeekGear company never fail to impress me, and I can't wait to see what we get next month (just in time for the new year, hopefully).

I will be back tomorrow for day one of Blogmas (are you as excited as I am!?)!!

Hello you beauties!

I have seriously been too excited for this box. I am a massive Harry Potter fan - massive! - and so Harry Potter merchandise is everything I live for. This box is perfect for that. So let's see what was in this month's box.

Again, I chose to have a Slytherin themed box.

This box costs: £19.99 + £2.99 p&p

There are 9 items in this box

Let's first talk about the t-shirt in this month's box. It is actually amazing. It is a t-shirt that says 'I Solemnly Swear I Am Up To No Good'. You could get a grey or a purple one and I am so happy that I got the purple one (it's my favourite colour!). I can't wait to start wearing it!

The next item I am really excited about is the 'I Solemnly Swear I Am Up To No Good' travel mug. While it is only a plastic one and probably won't keep drinks warm for very long, it is perfect to keep drinks in while out and about. It is perfect for the coming winter months and will encourage me to drink more warm drinks during the day.

Next I pulled out a house 'Prefect' badge, which I thought was amazing-ly cool. Mine is green, for the Slytherin house. I have seen these around before and have always wanted one, and now I am glad to finally own one. I will probably wear this pin with every outfit.

Next are two posters which I am extremely pleased with. One is a house poster. Mine is green that says 'Keep Calm and Be A Slytherin'. I love this poster, and I have always wanted one. The other poster is one of the rules that Dolores Umbridge created during Harry's fifth year, which is one of the most awesome posters I have ever owned. I am so excited that they did this.

They also included some ribbon with the Hogwarts crest and all of the House crests. It looks cool, but I really don't see why they included it. I know I'll have no use for it.

Next is another AMAZING product. In the box, we got a 2017 illustrated calendar! I am not usually the sort of person to use a calendar as I usually forget to change it each month or to even use it in general. However, the illustrations on this calendar are so beautiful, so I know I will definitely be using this every day next year. I can't wait for it to be 2017 already!

Then there is a wall hanging of 'Platform 9 and 3/4' which is actually metallic, and so I feel would be greatly protected. This is really quite cool and I'm going to make sure to find somewhere to hang it in my bedroom, especially once I go to university.

The next and final item in the box is a double-sided print, which I have already put up on my wall. One side is another 'Platform 9 and 3/4' print, and on the other side has a picture of Hogwarts. Of course I chose the picture of Hogwarts to display on my wall. I love these prints that they put in these boxes. The illustrations are amazing and they're all such good quality.

Again, I absolutely loved this box and I really really cannot wait for next month's box. And apparently November's box will be their Christmas box which I am so excited about as Christmas is my favourite time of the year!

I'll be back on Tuesday with my monthly favourites for you all!

Hello you beauties!

As you all may know, I used to subscribe to the 'My Little Box' beauty boxes, but I have swapped that box for an even cooler Harry Potter subscription box. While I know it's not beauty related, I thought I would still write my monthly reviews on it, as I know some of you may still be interested in it.

This box costs: £19.99 + £2.99 p&p

There are 8 items in this box

You get to choose the house you want for the box, or choose to have a mixture. Obviously I'm a Slytherin, and so as soon as I opened the box, I saw the green tissue paper showing my house colour, holding the surprises together with a lovely 'Dark Mark' sticker.

The first item that stood out in this month's box was a lovely t-shirt. The t-shirt was an Ollivander's t-shirt and I have worn it as much as I can already. I was unsure what size to choose so I went with a size bigger than I usually get, and it's huge on me, so it's a good job I love wearing baggy clothes. It feels and looks great though and I am extremely happy with this first product.

Next is another major product in the box - Voldemort's wand! When I went to 'The Making of Harry Potter' for the first time back in June, I bought Hermione Granger's wand then and have wanted to add to my miniscule collection of wands since then. Even though they're not of the same brand, I'm so happy to have another major wand in my collection and I hope there will be more to come in the future. 

The next item is a large-ish badge that says 'Proud to be a Slytherin' with the Slytherin snake on it. This is a lovely addition to the box, but because the badge is so big, I doubt I'll wear it out of the house. I'm just going to find a special place to display it in my house.

Then I pulled out a Hogwarts tea towel! The design of this product is really special - with 'Hogwarts written on it and part of the castle drawn around it. I doubt I will use this much now, I might save it for if I ever get to go to university but I do honestly believe this is a lovely addition to the box, and is a decent sized towel.

One product I was extremely excited to see was the Marauders Map! Both my brother and I have always always wanted one of these, and now I finally have one! The quality of it is great - whilst you can't actually see people walking around on it, the detail put into the actual map and outline of the castle is brilliant, and the feel of the product is great. It is made of extremely glossy paper which I feel will make it last a whole lot longer.

Next is a cardboard glossy Azkaban Poster, which I am actually very happy about. It is very cartoon like but also very detailed and a decent size too. I have a lot of posters on my wall already, so I will probably save this for when I go to university to decorate my room, but I am very happy with the inclusion of posters in this subscription box, and I feel like it will last for a very long time.

I must have actually screamed when I saw the Hogwarts Letters in the box this month. They're so detailed and look so life like, and they gave us two as well, so it's a great idea to send one to a friend! My brother loves Harry Potter just as much as I do, so I decided to 'send' one of these letters to him and he loved it. It's a great addition to my Harry Potter merchandise collection.

The final product in this box, and again a pretty amazing product, is a Deathly Hallows Necklace! I have honestly ALWAYS wanted one of these and now I finally have one! What more, the part of the Resurrection Stone can actually turn, which I find makes this even more unique. The chain is a decent length and the fact that it is silver makes it a brilliant item, and I cannot wait to wear it more in the future.

I cannot begin to describe how much I love this box. While I love my beauty subscription boxes for the makeup additions to my collection each month, this Harry Potter box gives me an acceptable excuse to 'geek out' once a month while getting great and decent quality products for such a low price each month. I already cannot wait for next month's box already, and I would definitely recommend that you all treat yourself to this box as well. But be quick! As you can imagine, this box sells out extremely quickly (usually within a couple of weeks).

I'll be back on Saturday with my monthly favourites for you all!
