Everything in the May OwlCrate.

owlcrate_may2016_book

Everland by Wendy Spinale ($10.22) – Another brand new book that was just released May 10th.  I love that they send such new books.  This  is a twist on the classic Peter Pan story. This is the first book in a new three book series with a fairytale cast in a steampunk world.

London has been destroyed in a blitz of bombs and disease. The only ones who have survived are children, among them Gwen Darling and her siblings, Joanna and Mikey. They spend their nights scavenging and their days avoiding the ruthless Marauders — the German army led by Captain Hanz Otto Oswald Kretschmer.
Unsure if the virus has spread past England’s borders but desperate to leave, Captain Hook hunts for a cure, which he thinks can be found in one of the survivors. He and his Marauders stalk the streets snatching children for experimentation. None ever return. Until the day they grab Joanna. As Gwen sets out to save her, she meets a daredevil boy named Pete. Pete offers the assistance of his gang of Lost Boys and the fierce sharpshooter Bella, who have all been living in a city hidden underground. But in a place where help has a steep price and every promise is bound by blood, it will cost Gwen. And are she, Pete, the Lost Boys, and Bella enough to outsmart Captain Hook?

owlcrate_may2016_nailwraps

Steampunk Nailwraps by Espionage Cosmetics (These are discontinued but others go for $10-$12) I love nailwraps and while I don’t wear them all the time I love to play around with them and to wear them when going to an event or out of town. These are really detailed and will be fun to mix in. Find out more about the Espionage Cosmetics subscription box in the directory!

owlcrate_may2016_ring

The Infernal Devices Ring by Sparks Emporium (This is exclusive for OwlCrate but other rings go for about $6.00)- This is a really pretty ring and it has an adjustable size so that it will fit everyone.

owlcrate_may2016_pin

Gear Wings pin by Elope ($7.95)- Five different pieces were sent out and I love the one I got. It is a really heavy weight pin and I plan to add it to one of my bags.

owlcrate_may2016_key

Skeleton Key Necklace by Crystal Compass Designs (I don’t see this one on the site but others go for about $18.00) – I love love love this necklace and will be wearing it often. It has a longer chain so that I can layer it over a top and it will be a fun accessory.

owlcrate_may2016_print

Art Print from Creative Daffodil Studios ($12.00) – Another great item this month. This is on photo paper and will be great in a frame on my wall.

If you can’t tell from my review this is totally a me box this month. I love the theme of Steampunk and I love any and all things Disney so mixing both of my loves just makes me so happy. I can’t wait to wear my new accessories, try out my new book and hang the art print in my office.  I’m actually giddy just writing this review and looking over all the items again. I’m putting this book as next on my pile of to read books.
