With every day passing it’s getting one step closer to Christmas. For all of you who don’t know what to give to their friends, aunts, brothers, neighbours, whosoever yet, you can lean back now. For the next 40 days we’ll present you every day a unique christmas gift idea for a very special person. Maybe it will be exactly the right thing, maybe it will inspire you to look for something else.

We start off with a unique Christmas gift idea for: hobbyists

You want to give a present to that person who just does everything himself? Who has gifted hands? Who will never get excited about the things you’ve given him so far as they just were not DIY? Christmas 2011 will change everything, when you give him one of our cool DIY eraser sets. We carry several Japanese eraser making kits with different designs and colours. They all come with different clay colours, several molds and instructions. They can be cute, cool, glow in the dark, glitter and much more. As fun for children as for adults. And after you’ve finished you have unique erasers to use or give away. How cool is that? Check out our many different clay sets and lots of accessories for a good clay experience.

Our clay sets became really popular in our shop and we ran out of stock very fast. We did place an order immediately but it took very long to get them this time.

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.

There are new Kutsuwa clay products available in our shop now. We got 2 more clay sets to make your own donuts, macaroons and other sweets and we finally got some glitter, deco stones and more for decorating cellphones, NDS, PSP and more. There is also a yellow Fuwa Fuwa clay in store now. All products are from Japan and have the perfect Japanese quality.
