New sock designs!

New sock designs!

One of my goals this year is to expand more on my socks collection, so I'm starting really early with 4 new designs. I got a lot of requests to make darker colored socks, so I'm trying to find a good grey/black to add to the collection.

It isn't 100% guranteed these will get made, it all depends on how the samples look! However I'm pretty ...

Evolution of a snake

Evolution of a snake

Lunar New Year has always been a big part of my culture and childhood, and this year we go from the Dragon to the Year of the Snake (蛇年).

I don't have much experience drawing reptiles, so this was really a challenge for me to make a design that was both cute and also easy to use with my ceramic process.

But I think I've finally s...

Shop re-opened + new stuff

After a month long break, the shop is finally back open again! I still need to add the inventory for some missing items (socks, magnets), but most things should be there now :)

I'd especially like to point out the new bird magnet sets! They are an extension of the original songbird sets that started it all.

The Year of the Snake!

The Year of the Snake!

Hi lovely people! Thanks for waiting for this month's update post :D I've been on holiday, so I'm trying to take things a little slower than usual.

This month celebrates the Year of the Snake since Lunar New Year (LNY) is at the end of January. So of course, I had to make a LNY themed sticker sheet featuring all 12 animals :D The snake pos...

New merch sneak peak!

New merch sneak peak!

This month, I've finalized the designs for my spring collection and now am getting the samples made! Coming are Tea Towels, cap designs, beanies + d&d sets.

I know beanies aren't really a "spring" thing, but I'm getting the samples made now so that I can have them ready for next autumn.

After designing new products for several ye...

Happy mail on the way!

I've decided to send the happy mail this month, instead of waiting until after the holidays.

Maybe we still book tickets for spring, but financially ...

Cat mug samples update

Cat mug samples update

I'm starting to lose track of how many samples I've made for this cat mug now. I just got these new ones, and while cute, there are still some major issues.

The biggest one is that I think the mug might be *too* big! The mug without anything in it is already so heavy, and with add liquid the weight doubles. It makes it pretty uncomfortabl...

This week, I attended my second ever Raku course and it was so much fun! The course is run by an experienced artist named Marion Falk along with an assitant, and she took us step by step through the whole process. In total we were 9 people and I estimate we fired about 80 pieces.
