Today we got such an awesome new fabric from Japan, I just had to write a blog post dedicated to this fabric. It is a red Japanese cotton fabric with lots of super cute deers, squirrels, strawberries, birds and hearts. I just love love love this fabric. It is so beautiful.

We made our own Christmas stamp for decorating all packages for Christmas this year. It’s our first modes4u-stamp with a cute character: Santa Claus, a reindeer and gingerbread man. We thought it would be nice to decorate all packages during the holiday season with a cute Christmas stamp. This stamp is handmade and totally unique. I hope you guys like your cute decorated packages. Merry Christmas everyone
