Geek Gear has a special Harry Potter themed edition of their monthly subscription box, now called World of Wizardry! When you sign up, let them know which house you’re in, and they’ll take care of the rest, delivering a box of magical items to you every month! The items are not authorized or official, but they are good quality and very creative. I love how the box looks like a chest.

Neatly wrapped in Ravenclaw blue tissue paper.

This charming book is the list of contents with brightly colored pictures.

Stay in touch via social media and see what this month’s winners will get as amazing prizes.

Famous Quote T-Shirt! “Hogwarts will Always be there to Welcome you home, ” J.K. Rowling said this when speaking about going back by page or by the big screen about the beloved Harry Potter series. There could be no truer words for a die hard Potterhead like myself, if I’m happy, sad, sick or just emotional Hogwarts (especially at Christmas) can make my world all better.

Hogwarts House Hat! Blue and gray Ravenclaw hat it so cozy and warm. It’s thick enough to wear during a winter wind or inside because it’s awesome. I love that the patch is very well secured, meaning washing this treasure will not ruin it.

Hogwarts House Gloves! They match the hat perfectly and are small enough for my little hands. I was super excited that I could still play with my touch screen phone while wearing them. I’m not sure I’d want to do chores involving snow in these gloves but they are wonderful for what we call winter here in Arizona.
Hogwarts Crest Key Ring! This key chain is no joke, it’s heavy duty, if you swing it you could potentially harm someone. I would use this with other key chains in my ignition as they might get heavy and bend my key, I’m not sure that’s a real thing that can happen but I remember my father saying it in my teenage years where having tons of key chains was all the rage. I will be using this for my work badge because it’s way more fun then a boring black lanyard.

Harry Potter Cotton Mug! A cuter sweater/decoration for a basic mug could not be found, this is too cool! I love the softness of the cotton used and that it’s thick enough to keep the hot (or cold) from my beverages from my delicate hands. I’m not sure I’ve ever owned a mug with so much personality and I have a mug issue.
Hogwarts Crest Patch! This makes me want to grab a jean jacket and decorate it with this high quality patch. It’s so brightly colored and thick, I can’t wait to put it on a tote bag from the craft store and make my own reusable grocery sack.

[Editor’s Note: OMG this is the best patch idea ever!!!]

Large Hogwarts Neon Magnet! This splash of color makes me so happy. I love seeing this bright symbol on my refrigerator from my dinning room table, it’s the little things that put a smile on my face.

Fantastic Beasts Artwork! I have not seen this movie or read this book yet so I can’t really speak to the images. I can say that this is a beautiful piece with a magical flow. I love the colors that are used to bring the animals to life.

UPDATE: The artist Yu-Ming Huang reached out to us to let us know that his art was used without permission by Geek Gear. As detailed in later reviews this has been a problem with this subscription which they seem to have resolved by firing the person responsible for it.

Geek Gear’s World of Wizardry box is so much fun! It amazes me how many unique products can be made with a little HP inspiration. I loved that there was so much product to wear  this month. Showing my Potterhead status while also showing my house some love has never been easier. Not only do I like that each box is house specific but I love that everything is high quality and functional. I also think it’s great that no two months boxes have had the same exact items.

What did you think of this month’s Geek Gear World of Wizardry box, and what house would you be in at Hogwarts?

    I love the idea for a reusable grocery bag. That is the perfect idea for my patches and maybe even some of the pins. Hmm or the pins could go on the bin have in my car to put the bags in. Oh so many things to think about now.
