Sticky Kit May 2018 Review
Seashell Sticky Notes
Usually included in this subscription is a small card thanking subscribers and directing them to the Sticky Kit website. Sometimes their site has information about what tapes were included in that month's box, but this month that info hasn't been provided yet. Sticky Kit also includes a bonus non-tape item in their washi tape kits and this time it was a small pad of sticky notes decorated with seashells along the edges. When I say it was small, I mean both in diameter and in that it only includes 5 pages. I've already put this in my desk drawer to use for little work reminders throughout my day!
Pineapple Washi Tape - Buy a similar tape here for $4.99
This month's tapes feature vibrant colors and summery themes, like this white roll that's decorated with pineapples—both whole and slices. I'm all about the tropical fruit trend, but often times clothes and accessories that feature them are a little too loud for my style. So washi tape is the perfect way to partake!
I put this fun tape to use on my phone charger. When I travel, I always bring one with me but often lose track of whether the charger is mine or someone else's. This is a great way of differentiating between other people's chargers, and I might even switch it up by season. If I were to use a thinner tape, I could also wrap it around the USB part of the cord, too.
School of Fish Washi Tape - Buy a similar tape here for $3.22
How cute are these vibrant fish? I feel like kids would love this tape, though it isn't so juvenile that adults couldn't use it too. This tape makes me want to go scuba diving!
Space Craft Silver Foil Pebble Washi Tape - Retail Value $4.86
This tape is a little fancier than the others with its silver-accented pebble pattern and die cut edges. The pattern reminds me of stones you might find in a river or fish tank, though perhaps more bright and dynamic in a pattern than either.
I decided to use this tape to trim the edge of this plant's pot. With the green leaves against my green walls and the terra cotta pot against the copper table, I felt it could use a pop of color. This tape adds interest without distracting from the beauty of the plant, in my opinion!
Beachfront Washi Tape - Buy a similar tape here for $3.00
And, finally, a tape depicting an oceanside scene. This die cut tape is beautifully detailed, with a beachy setting including palm trees, grass-roof huts, a fruit cart, a hotel, a bar, bikes, and more. Can I please go there right this second? It just looks way too inviting!
The Verdict: This month's Sticky Kit Washi Tape offerings were so perfect for the season! As is often the case, it was a mix of lighthearted patterns and more detailed, artful options. I always love the variety! This subscription costs $16.99 and often the contents add up to almost that amount. Even when they don't, the element of surprise makes it worth the small gap in value for me.
