We're on the front page! Thanks to the lovely treasury that is found above, I was lucky enough to come back home and see that Daisy is on the front page of Etsy right now (it's 9:24pm while I'm typing this). So, since this rarely happens, I've taken a screen shot to remember ^^. Daisy was also featured in another lovely treasury created by imeondesign so do check that out as well below ^^! Got my hair cut, but it doesn't really look much different since I decided to still keep it long haha ><;;

Treasuryhog.

Hi everyone! Sorry I've been MIA during the past week. I've been incredibly busy finishing up an important wholesale order that I was suppose to ship out earlier on in the week (but will ship out on Monday/Tuesday). Due to fatigue and working on this wholesale order, I know some of your orders have been delayed a bit, but please do not worry as I will try my best to have them finished for you during this week once my wholesale order is out of the way. I'll have photos posted up later of my wholesale order so you can see the amount of toys that I've been working on finishing up. I can't wait to get these out, as well as all of your orders as well, since I know you're all patiently waiting.

Also, a big thank you to Angela for featuring my hedgehog Toki in her wonderful treasury full of hedgehogs! Check it out down below (:


Stay tuned for more updates and pictures of my wholesale order. And please look forward to receiving your orders soon. I've updated the order status section. Thanks for being super patient.

A treasury of bunnys.

I just wanted to make a quick post to say thank you to both helendesign and WhisperandHush for featuring Max and Daisy in their treasuries! yay! Although they are not in the same treasuries, the fact that two of my yellow bunnies were featured in separate treasuries today still makes me happy! (Okay, well Max was featured on May 1, and Daisy on May 2, BUT I have not slept yet, and so it feels like the same day to me, as I'm writing this at about 2am ^^). Anyways, please check out both of these wonderful treasuries! The first featuring a theme of yellow, and the next featuring cute plush stuffies! Thanks again Helen and Dawn!



Also, I'm currently sitting at 991 shop hearts. If I reach 1000, I'm thinking about doing a giveaway. I'm not sure what will be up for grabs yet, but I'm definitely thinking about it! So if you aren't following me yet, please do so that you can stay up to date with the latest information :D

Sunny Treasury.

I'm happy to announce that my cute bunny Daisy has been featured in a cute and sunny treasury over on Etsy. Definitely check it out when you have some time because it's really cheerful and bright!

Special thanks to ZionShore over on Etsy, for making this wonderful treasury, and for featuring Daisy in it as well ^^ yay!

Featured in an Etsy Treasury: Toki

So it hasn't been that long since I've added Toki to my list of oddly cute characters over on Etsy, but I'm happy to announce that Toki has been featured in a treasury full of super cute hedgehogs! It's almost like he's made a new family! Horray!! So, I thought I'd share this treasury with you. Thank you to HanaLetters for including my little hedgehog in your wonderful treasury :D

If you haven't checked out this treasury yet, please do so before it expires (yes treasuries expire), but my screencap will last forever! hehe~

This treasury expires Friday, April 23, 2010

Gwen, my lovely evergreen owl, has been featured in a new Treasury on Etsy. Thank you so much to VintageofNow for including my owl in your wonderful treasury.


Speaking of owls, I've been watching this owl named Molly along with her little owl babies ^_^ Yesterday I was able to witness the hatching of her third owl chick. It was just amazing and I invite all of you to watch as well if you have time. She's a beautiful owl! Here is a live feed where you can watch her and her adorable family:

I'm off to go rest a bit before I get started with working on finishing up some orders. I had waken up with a terrible stomach ache, which had begun since last night.

Cute Treasuries and updates.

On October 24 and 26, 2009 my pandas and my owls were featured in two very super adorable Etsy Treasuries!

The excitement of being featured.

Recently, Kai (my super cute knitted owl) has become quite popular! Not only did people purchase him in two consecutive days (and within hours apart on the same day), but he has also been featured in a Treasury this morning! I'm so glad people are getting to see Kai and are showing interest in him as well :)


A big thank you goes out to angelasermoneta for featuring Kai in her treasury.

Now for some super exciting news! Kai was featured on the front page of Etsy's Gift Guides!.

When I came home from my Korean class, I signed onto Etsy and did my regular routine of checking for messages. Then I spotted something strange.... the stats for Kai showed 500 views!. I had relisted him on the 6th of October, so when I saw that he had been viewed 500 times my eyes opened really wide! I've never gotten that many views for an item in less than a day before! So I started searching around on CraftCult.com to see if I had maybe been featured on the front page of Etsy. Unfortunately I wasn't featured on the front page of Etsy, BUT my owl WAS featured on the front page of Etsy's Gift Guides!, which is still SUPER AWESOME!





I am so super happy that many, many people were able to see all in one day! ^_________^

So my Marching Polar Bear has been featured yet again in another exciting Treasury! Thanks so much to GEOmetricSTYLE for featuring my polar bear :D. Make sure that you check out my polar bear in this awesome treasury :D. It expires on Monday, Sept. 21, 2009 at 5:41 AM (lol) but if you miss it, click on the photo below to view a larger version of the picture so that you can see my polar bear ^^




As the weather gets colder, I find myself getting prone to illness quite easily. Which is so strange for me. I'm fearing getting a sore throat, as I have not experienced a sore throat ever since getting my tonsils removed earlier on in the year. I have to say, getting them removed wasn't that bad, but recovering from the surgery was one of the WORST experiences of my life! HAha, it was really all too painful of a recovery, and my sleeping pattern (rather than getting better), has complete flipped upside down. My internal clock is still set to function in the other side of the world haha. Oh well, I think I'm starting to adjust now, waking up earlier, and trying to sleep earlier (although the last 2 nights I've been up really late).

The other night, I went out on a triple date of sorts. We ventured into Korea Town, and ate at two different restaurants. The first consisted of REALLY spicy food, but I just LOVE my spicy rice cakes! I will definitely buy those when I go to Korea in December as I know that will definitely warm me up haha. At the other restaurant I had some bulgogi which was yummy :) I don't think I've ever eaten so much food in my life haha. But it was a good night out with friends :)

Gotten a few orders in this week that I'm really happy about and I'm super excited to work on them. I've got 2 sets of pandas to make, plus a marching polar bear (the one that was featured ^^) as well as the rest of my organic order to finish! It's been a lot of fun, and I'm always excited to take in more orders. Keeps my hands busy :D

Thinking about purchasing a shelf space in this new shop that is opening downtown to sell some of my toys there ^^ But I will probably be able to do that in the new year since I've spent so much this month on plane tickets and hostel bookings for Lisa and My Trip to Korea to visit Janet. Hopefully I will be able to reserve a spot for my toys in that shop though. It would be an exciting venture :D.

Anyways, I've got to get back to working on orders as well as a logo for someone ^_____^
Hope you are all having a lovely weekend~

Featured, Reviewed, and Currently working on.

Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful day.
I'm still feeling sick and drinking some yummy green tea while I write my post (mmm I'm so glad I bought the right one! lol).
A lot has been going on lately. I finished all 3 of my recent orders and shipped them out the other day so please expect to receive them in the mail soon :D I finally had some time to start working on my organic order! I have been wanting to work on this order for SUCH a long time, but always ran out of time because of other orders that were needed sooner, but don't worry I haven't forgotten about you! I am actually almost finished making an organic mushroom bear! It's so adorable! and made out of organic cotton yarn and filled with organic wool stuffing ^_____^ I had such a productive day yesterday and managed to get a lot of things done and was able to work on new things which I am happy about.

During the week, some of my toys have also been featured in treasuries.
On September 12, 2009 my Mushroom Bear Family were featured in a Treasury called The Mighty Mighty Mushroom which was created by woolcrazy. I was so happy that she decided to feature my mushroom bear family, as they were a recent listing of mine :) Thanks so so much!




On the 15th, my Sleepy Owl (Kai) was featured in a treasury called What's on your needles! I was so thankful to PanicaLab for featuring my owls ^____^ And I'm glad that my owls are so popular among different people on Etsy ^___^




Lastly ChocolateCherriBomb did a review about my shop/some of my toys. It was mainly a review on the giant mushroom bear which I had made for her and I'm super happy that she loved the mushroom bear so much! And I'm really thankful for the review as well. Please head over here to read the review.



Things left to work on:
- 1 set of pandas for Tiffany
- Organic order for Rosi (1 mushroom bear (almost finished), 1 Yuu-kii bunny, 1 small momo bear, 1 kai owl)

Recently I've noticed that people have been featuring me in their treasuries! It's always super exciting when they let me know that they have featured one of my little characters in their treasury. I meant to take screen caps of each one that I was featured in as it happened, but I haven't always remembered to. But I plan on doing so from now on and providing a link to that person's shop here at my blog as a thank you (although I do normally send them a thank you message through etsy ^^). So here is the latest treasury that featured something from my shop (my adorable owls!)

A big thank you goes out to HeartshapedCreations for featuring me in her treasury :) Click here to check out her super cute treasury!

My owls were also featured in LittleWhiteDresser's treasury on July 25, 2009. A big thank you goes out to her as well :)




Another treasury that I was featured in a while back was created by Owlonthesill. I hadn't taken a screen cap of it, but I'm so happy that she did! So here it is.

Jennyndesign had also featured my pandas in her treasury, but unfortunately, I forgot to take a screen cap :( but definitely stop by her shop :) She makes amazing handbags :)
