pocket mirrors!

some time ago, i had this awesome customer from the u.k. who requested pocket mirrors with the washi designs i use. well, here they are! well, some of them ;).

at the moment, there are 5 designs to choose from, but considering the fact that i sold one (the koi cutey pictured above) immediately after listing it, i can tell i'm going to be expanding to even more designs very soon!



you can use these 2.25" handy mirrors for checking your makeup, your hair, or my favourite use: peeking around corners like a super sleuth! ;D and each mirror comes prettily packaged in a matching organza bag, ready to give to a friend or toss directly into your purse!



and at only $6 each, how can you say no?! every girl needs one of these!

if you see any washi designs in my shop that you think are just dying to be on a pocket mirror, leave me a comment and let me know! you can name a pendant, magnet set, etc. that uses the design you're thinking of so it's easier for me to know which one you mean.

yay, pocket mirrors!

oh, and ps - these were a total bugger to photograph! lea, now i know what you had to go through with your pocket mirrors!

'japanese wedding'

i just made a new batch of my japanese washi fortune cookies! these feature cute little white cranes in flight. cranes are a staple of japanese weddings.

these are now listed in my shop :). to read more about them, go here.

i needed to actually make some so i could take pictures for the listing, so i went ahead and made the 20 of these i needed, but with my wedding 'thank you' fortune inside. now that i'm done taking the pictures for the listing, i can mix these in with the sakura ones i made for my other washi fortune cookie listing! if i hadn't done this, these cookies would have just gone to waste, because i make these custom-ly per customer. how effecient of me, yes?

also, don't forget to stop by my shop and check out my $4 tile pendant necklace sale! i've got to clear them out of my inventory so i can replace them with aanraku bail versions :).
