First peek!
The information card is a high-gloss postcard that briefly describes all of the items inside. I’ll say it again… I love The Golden Girls! Who was your favorite Golden Girl – Blanche, Dorothy, Rose, or Sophia??

Peaches & Petals “Thank You For Being A Friend” Notecards (5 pack) | $10.00
I received a pack of five glossy notecards featuring the four lovely Golden Girls themselves! The cards are blank on the inside and have the Peaches and Petals logo on the back of the card (bottom-center). My coworker is always joking that she is slowly but surely turning into Dorothy – she will definitely be getting one of these cards from me… along with a piece of cheesecake! He he!
Anchor Friendship Necklace | $9.99
This is a beautiful gold-colored anchor necklace! The card reads, “Make a wish and put on your necklace. True friends give us something to hold onto, and help us stay afloat. Wear your necklace as a reminder that you are my anchor…”
The cute anchor charm is on a bright gold 16″ chain. I love the sentiment behind the charm but personally prefer a longer chain. This will go in our gift / giveaway stash for sure!
FunkyTech Foxy Fox Two-Port Splitter | $7.50
Aww! This is such a cute little headphone splitter! There is a key chained cap at the base to protect the connector plug. It is compatible with any device with a standard 3.5mm headphone socket. I would have loved this on family car trips growing up. We did not have smart phones and tablets when I was a kid, but I definitely had my fair share of backseat arguments with my brother over the Walkman! 🙂
Manna Kadar Split Pan Bronzer and Highlighter Duo | $21.00 (Full-Size Price)
We have seen a ton of Manna Kadar products in subscription boxes lately and I was excited to finally get my hands on one myself! Unfortunately, my bronzer / highlighter duo was wrecked in transit. Luckily, Peaches and Petals has seriously awesome customer service so I sent an email letting them know of my damaged product and I have a new one coming my way soon! Awesome!
This is a 3-in-1 product that can be used as a bronzer, highlighter, or eyeshadow! The powder is highly pigmented and metallic and is advertised as being suitable for all skin tones. It is paraben free, cruelty free, and allergy tested as well! I’m looking forward to receiving my replacement and will experiment with this to see how I like it.
Inspirational Decal | $2.00?
This is a larger rectangular decal that would look great on a filing cabinet (my old office cabinet was completely covered in stickers!) or nested in a planner. This is a great quote that serves as a reminder to appreciate the special people we have in our life over our possessions. 🙂
Oh Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Wooden Box | $5.00?
This fun wooden trinket box is adorned with lyrics from Cyndi Lauper’s iconic 80s hit, Girls Just Want To Have Fun! This was my Peaches and Petals “Friendship Surprise”. I am pretty sure I can find a use for this box somewhere in the house. I can stash a lot of paperclips, stickers, loose change, or secret surprises for Little G in here!
For those of you who are too young to know who Cyndi Lauper is, I’m sorry… AND…
You’re very welcome, world.
My Thoughts
To be honest, the August 2016 Peaches and Petals box was a bit confusing for me… The actual contents of the box felt a little young for me personally, yet it had awesome references to The Golden Girls and Cyndi Lauper which are probably too old for some subscribers to fully appreciate! I will be making great use of the Peaches and Petals friendship notecards and am excited to try the Manna Kadar bronzer / highlighter duo when the replacement comes in!
I’m interested to see the contents in next month’s Peaches and Petals box and whether it will suit my style better!
September’s upcoming theme is….

Wow…. I can honestly say I saw every episode and love it more today than then.
I loved Dorothy, bitter at Stan all the time. Blanche taught me my early lessons on sex, Sophia was just a typical mother and Rose was so innocent and her stories..
Great show.
Omgosh I love this box!! Such fun contents!! Love those Golden Girl cards and that bronzer!! Super happy they sent you a new one!!
This box looks great. I haven’t done boxes before, but this looks like fun!
I subscribed to Peaches and Petals last fall. I loved the fluffy knitted scarf I got in one box but most other items seemed very random and sad to say cheap. I have noticed that the past few months have had some better items and were much more theme related; aside from this month which I feel was a return to random and cheap. But in the world of subs there are always going to good months and not so good months and downright awful months. I’m glad to see that P&P are doing better.
I’ve been a P&P subscriber for five months now and I don’t see that ending anytime soon! I love this box so much, it’s my favorite out of all the boxes I get at the moment, and even some of the things that are a little random or ‘cheap’ will definitely get use from me, so I don’t tend to mind if this particular box has it’s ups and downs. Thank you for the review!
