They are unpredictable. Today this is hot, tomorrow it’s not, today they like this, tomorrow they’ll hate it. Teenagers, cool kids and adolescent people are just a mystery. Choosing Christmas presents for them is like playing roulette: You can win or you lose. But certain things seem to be a safe thing.

It is so interesting to look at these kind of pictures and find all those cute things on it. Every time you discover another cute little thing  You can order those kawaii buttons in our shop: cute fabric buttons

the cutest buttons ever

We had a fun DIY day in our office today. Pui Chi, my sister-in-law, came to our office to start her own new project. We work together with her to help her make her own chop collection and she will also make some buttons for our shop. We ordered all the machines and equipment already and today we tried out all of them. She made some really cute buttons with some leftover Hello Kitty fabrics and Japanese fabrics. Then we tried out the chop machine. I was really surprised, the chop making machine is amazing. The quality of the final product is really, really good. I documented our day with some pictures:

Hello Kitty buttons and strawberry buttons made by us

first step to make a chop: we designed it on a computer, then printed it on special paper

next step cutting out the chop sponge and transfer the image onto the sponge with the special machine

we dropped a few drops of ink onto the chop sponge and started testing. The result is very nice and very detailed.

Next we went back to Shinjuku because I wanted to check out a fabric shop I heard about.

Our destination was “Okadaya“, a multi-level fabric shop I heard about online. We checked out all floors, unfortunately I wasn’t that excited about it as we saw a lot more in Fabric Town in Nippori before already. However, the shop opposite, which also belongs to Okadaya, is totally worth a visit. See some pictures below:

We went back to our hotel, picked up our stuff and took the express train to the airport.

We finally have Rilakkuma Relax Bear fabric from San-X Japan in our shop. They are super cute. There are even matching buttons available. I will be on the lookout to get more different San-X fabrics soon. Additional, we got also tons of other kawaii fabric and buttons, like cute animal kids, bears, monkeys, strawberries, some new Hello Kitty fabric and Hello Kitty buttons and more.
