We recently added more beautiful Amuse dessert figurines to our store! They’re incredibly kawaii, sporting cat faces, fruits, ice-cream and more. They’re great to decorate your room, doll houses etc., or to give as a gift. We also have brand new Amuse bags and plush wallets too, featuring animals. They come in different colors and they’re really handy for shopping or carrying around small items. Take a look at the many lovely Amuse items we have in store.

We spotted so many lovely projects from our customers over the last months again on our Facebook site that it’s about time we introduce them here on the blog:
Samodiva’s Treasures sewed a lovely kindle cover with our Camelot Dream A Little Dream fabric. Don’t you just want to get comfy and start reading?
Isn’t this diaper bag just amazing? Le Petit Monde de Lilaxel? sewed it using our Michael Miller Summer Night Lights Border fabric.
Our customer Evelin Mostafa made a gorgeous bag set with a handbag, coin case and pouch using our pretty Timeless Treasures autumn fabric.
Les Bêtes de Céline showed us pictures of lots of pretty loop scarfs that she made. This one is sewn with our Spring sampler organic fabric by Cloud 9.
Per sfizio ma non solo showed us several projects on Facebook. She made a gorgeous pencil wrap case using several of our fabrics like e.g. the teal Urchin Forest organic birch fabric. She also showed her great project how to turn an old pair of jeans into a skirt and used some of our fabrics like the pretty Voile Koi fabric as embellishment.

Redecorate Con Lola Godoy? made a lovely fridge magnet notepad that she covered with our Timeless Treasures raspberry fabric.
And finally also a non-fabric related product. Isabelle Torloting from the blog Lovin Bento used our 4pcs Eiffel Tower bento box set to make a delicious bento.
Time for a mini edition of “what customers make with our fabrics”. In the last weeks our Dutch customer fabriekt.nl showed us her beautiful bags she sewed using many of our Kokka and echino fabrics. Our French customer Bienvenue Chez Flaneuze is using our Michael Miller Kiss me fabric and the colorful Timeless Treasures cat fabric as Furoshiki. Furoshiki are traditional Japanese wrapping cloths to transport things.
Time for another round of “What customers made with our fabrics”. Many of you posted your projects on our Facebook wall and we can’t help but share it.
Marion from Les Z’Opérations du Dr Marion blogged about this great children’s shirt that was made with our maritime Michael Miller fabric. What an awesome summer shirt.

Alessandra showed us on her blog Per sfizio ma non sole a great ensemble for girls which is based on our organic girl Fort Firefly fabric by birch. Super pretty!
Samantha sewed amazing children’s clothes with our Dear Stella snail fabric. The pattern looks gorgeous on toddlers.
What a fun idea: Concepcion Tejeda from Tenerife made lots of panties for her dog. One of them is done with our Alexander Henry skull fabric.
Our Italian customer DIY – Diynamic crafts from Italy used our Michael Miller space fabric to sew a pretty cinch bag with a lace detail.
Anja from Germany used the Alexander Henry Zocalo fabric to make this beautiful bag. Unfortunately the beige color is discontinued, but we still carry the fabric in other colors.
Wow, our customers in Europe are really creative with our products. Many people from Spain, Italy and France posted pictures of gorgeous things made with our products on our Facebook wall, so we want to share some of them with you. They are truly inspiring.
Our customers from Spain made some amazing stuff. Lola Godoy showed on her blog Redecora Te a great Washi Tape necklace makeover for which she used our black heart and purple spots Washi Tapes. A little while ago we also spotted an incredible shoe makeover there. Lola used one of our Robert Kaufman fabrics to give some high heels a new look. La Inglesita sewed an amazing children’s raincoat with our laminated Dino Dudes fabric. We totally love it.
In France our customers showed us lots of lovely bags lately. On Le Petit Monde de Lilaxel we saw this amazing school bag Lilaxel made for her son with our Super Kids fabric. Céline from Les Bêtes de Céline also sewed an amazing waterproof schoolbag with our echino bike laminate fabric. We adore the color, it looks so fresh and happy. Marie-Anne Thuillas from Made in Hémisphère Sud made a great big bag from our echino wildflower laminate fabric.
We finish with a great idea provided by our Italian customers Ross E Cris Petrilli. They put our funny dachshund fabric on a canvas and use it to display the prizes and ribbons their dachshund received at several contests. Isn’t that lovely?

This is the last part of our big Sunshine City series. In the last week we’ve shown you lots and lots of pictures from different shops in Tokyo’s huge “city within the city”. So what’s left to show today? Basically everything that didn’t fit into any of our other posts. And that is mainly general shop impressions or very kawaii accessories. It is amazing to see how crowded those shops are. They are filled with cuteness on every centimeter.

Super kawaii clocks with Alice in Wonderland themes

What a crowded shop, every inch is used to display products

These candles are super kawaii

So many different hair accessories

Lots of bags and bento accessories in one shelf

Very cute wallets, bags, pouches, pencil cases and lunch bags

We love the products on the top shelf, but are not sure what they are. Little stools or hat boxes?

Kawaii beauty accessories like brushes and combs

What a variety: on this pictures you see kawaii things from suitcases over bags to waste baskets

Those wallets look really pretty
In the past weeks quite a few customers showed us on our Facebook wall what they did with fabrics they ordered from our shop. We always love to see these projects, as they are a great source of inspiration. So we collected a few pictures to show you on our blog.
Our German customer Anita made a summer dress for her little daughter with the lovely Michael Miller Nicht Fairies fabrics. It looks wonderful and immediately makes us think of warm summer nights with starry skies. Les Bêtes de Céline from France sewed another great bag with our laminate fabrics. She combined two black and white fabrics from Michael Miller with an Eiffel Tower and zebra design. The combinations works perfectly and as the fabrics are laminated, they are also waterproof and great for outdoor use.
For the first time we also saw our fabrics being used in furniture projects. The blog Sew Much Ado used the laminated echino frame fabric in pale pink to reupholster four chairs in her dining room. She did a very detailed tutorial, so you can copy that project. It’s a great idea to use laminates, as it happens quite often that food or drinks are spilled on chairs, especially when you have children.
Our customer Alicia from California reupholstered a stool with a kawaii Cosmo animal fabric. It looks awesome and gives a whole new look to this piece of furniture.
Feel free to post pictures of your projects on our Facebook wall, we’re looking forward to it.

Our customer Nicole from Germany sew this wonderful summer dress for her daughter

Our customer Alicia from the USA reupholstered a stool with our fabric – great job!
Again we spotted wonderful things that some of our customers made with our fabrics. After we already introduced you to the cute boy’s shirt Caroline from the Sew Can She blog sewed, she now also made a beautiful handbag from our echino fabric. The combination with the real leather handle is perfect, it is an absolute astonishing piece.
The French designer Les Bêtes de Céline showed us a couple of weeks ago a picture of how she was working on a shoulder bag with our echino laminate fabrics. Now she finished the bag and we totally love it. She combined two echino laminates by Kokka, so the bag is waterproof. It’s absolutely lovely!

We are in love with the echino handbag made by Sew Can She

Here Les Bêtes de Céline is still working on this echino laminate shoulder bag

By now the waterproof bag is finished and absolutely beautiful
We were contacted by a German seller who is organizing a special promo bag auction on Dawanda (the German version of Etsy) for a charity project called “Atmenreich”. They take care of children during the day who have respiration illnesses (lung etc.). Of course we agreed to join this project as it is for a good cause. We will sponsor some of our Japanese fabrics and send it to the seller. They will then sew some cute bags with those fabrics and fill it with lots of cute things from other sellers in Germany. These kawaii promo bags will be sold in April on Dawanda.com. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that this will be a successful charity project.

we are mentioned on the first page of the flyer as the fabric sponsor (name: Kawaii-Planet, our Dawanda shop)

I got an email from one of our customers who sent me a picture of a bag she made with one of our fabrics. Its a really cute pink fabric with hamsters on it. She made a cute little handbag with it and will sell it in her own shop now.
I am always very excited to get emails from customers sending me pictures of their finished projects using our fabrics. Please send me pictures of your projects using our items and I will write a post about them and include a link to your shop.
