Hello everyone!

Thank you to everyone who came to visit us at our table in the Anime Expo Artist Alley last weekend! While it kept me very busy, it was a lot of fun to see you all in your cute outfits and cosplay costumes! I really appreciate everyone who came by even if it was to chat. This was my 10th year in a row attending AX, so you guys helped make it memorable since I couldn't really leave my table to see the Exhibit hall much.

AM2:

I'm not sure if anyone following me was planning to attend AM2, if so I'm sorry to say it appears as though that convention is cancelled. I know that their website is still active, but the Anaheim Convention Center has confirmed that the event was cancelled from their venue as of April and there have not been any announcements about the convention moving. Actually there haven't been any announcements from AM2 since February, PERIOD. Inside news about the convention being cancelled didn't come out until a few weeks ago. Supposedly all the staff has quit and there is nobody available to take down their website or make any announcements :/. So if you bought an AA table, a premier passport, know a friend who has and you were unaware that the convention was cancelled, PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS so that they can start the process to get their refunds if you/they have not received them already!!!!

A lot of the artists (including me) who signed up for tables after the convention last September have already started receiving refunds in the mail for our spots even though we did not request them. This gives me pretty clear indication that we will not be selling at AM2 this year as the CuteParade website previously stated. Which brings me to my last point of news below:

I just received a shipment of some custom made supplies for necklaces! I'm quite excited for these! I made some new items that completely sold out at AX this year and I didn't get photos of them TT_TT. I'm also getting ready to do a few other goodies for the shop! I finally found someone to make the supplies for me, so I'm really looking forward to it. So exciting!

More heart puff earrings are coming soon!

Since the Tune in Tokyo event is over (Looots of fun btw :D), I can work on random crafts again! I think it's time for more heart puff earrings :3 There will be a few more colors available this time as well! woo!

Oh! New tails are coming soon as well. I have some tails left over from the event and I have a few new sizes, colors, and patterns! I have to photograph them all first, but they should be up relatively soon.

Heart Puff Earrings now for sale in our Etsy store!

I finally managed to finish these. I made the little heart puffs a while back, but didn't have the chance to decorate them or figure out exactly how I wanted them to look as a final product. At this time this is the only pair I have made. They are available with findings for pierced ears or clip ons.

Thank you for looking!
