Fair Ivy (review)

My take:  Well, my extended absences here have led to this...a lapse in "compensated" reviews.  I do not get paid for reviews, but most all of the reviews you see on this site are from PR firms or companies who have asked me to take a look at their products, with the product as my "compensation." 

Now I find myself at a loss with none of these reviews in the pipeline. So I'm going to share with you some of the products/services I've purchased on my own that I absolutely love.  Not for compensation but just because I've bought some of these things myself (or have won them in giveaways) and I think they rock!

First up, Fair Ivy.  This website came to my attention when I entered a contest somewhere (Facebook?) to win these delightful Kiwi earrings - and I won!

Handmade kiwi earrings

Adorable, delicate, delicious itsy bitsy kiwi slice earrings!

Check out our other fruit studs — we also have strawberries, pink grapefruits and oranges!

Price: $7.50

I was so struck by how cute these were, I went to their website to check them out (clever how that marketing technique worked out for them, no?)  So what is Fair Ivy about?  Let me let them tell you:

Remember, in the days before texts, email, Facebook and twitter, how we used to communicate via the Postal Service (yes, I really am that old!)?  I sure remember....and I remember the thrill of getting packages just for me, especially surprise packages.  Now I can pass this thrill along to friends and family and you can too (see Frequently Asked Questions here).   They have packages for men, women, girls/teens and even pets!  Know of anyone going through a rough time and you can't be there in person for them?  Have a favorite aunt you want to surprise? You need Fair Ivy!  You can even purchase specific items (like those kiwi earrings) in their new shop!  You can even follow them on Facebook and Twitter for more information and the occasional discount.  I'll have to file this in the old "why didn't I think of that idea first" file *sigh*. Go on, check out Fair Ivy today and send a little love via the post office today.
