yay for 1 years!!!

It's been 1 year now since I've kept this little hobby of mine up, polymer clay sculpting and decoden. Even though I don't keep the stuff, it still makes me pretty happy to get request from others to see what I can do with their idea. What makes me even more happier is that their face lights up when they received the finished creature or thing ^__^ I've never gotten a frowny face yet! Heehee. I must admit, I'm still an amateur polymer clay charm maker, it's not as cute or really nice looking as all the polymer clay charm makers out there that I love and follow, but that doesn't stop customers coming to me :]

Imperfect Kawaii, is meant to be a secretive small shop, not to grow bigger. I have no intention in making the shop well known, maybe some day when I'm older (because nursing school is my first priority in a few years). Without having promoting the shop so much except in casual tweets, DA submissions, and a few chats, 242 items have been sold alone! My co-worker was impressed by the numbers since we don't promote our shop so much. We couldn't have done it or even keep going without our sweet customers! Thank you all very muchy ^_^ You are all a sugar cube to my cup of tea, making it extra sweet and delicious. In this matter, making this shop keep going ^.^ Hope you all stay tuned for more stuff!

Alwayz,

A gift from me to you!

It's our main shop's birthday on March 25th, and we'd like to give our buyers a little something more than just a freebie! We're giving away to our first 25 customers starting March 18, 2010 a Sanrio Surprise Baggy ^__^ What's inside? Here's a hint, but not too much!
You'll get:

-a few small kawaii memo sheets
-Sanrio character candy
-stickers
-Hello Kitty pin
-promo cellphone charm (not sold in stores!)
-and the cute Hello Kitty bag itself!

While supplies last! Only the first 25 buyers will receive this pack of Sanrio Surprise goodies!

Also, the owner of the shop has made a special video for everyone to see ^__^ It's a short storybook history of how Imperfect Kawaii began!

Hopefully this encourages you to send in a submission for our 1 year anniversary contest!!!

Thank you all for your 1 year of support to help us keep growing in our world! :] Couldn't do it without you sweeties!

Love,
