My tokidoki collection!

Now if you know me personally, you'd know I have a soft spot for anything remotely cute or hello kitty. Out of this strange obsession and yes it is strange when your best friends have to answer the question 'why are you in the kids section looking for a birthday card if she's 19' my love of vinyl toys appeared, specifically tokidoki!

I'm in love with Simone lengos work and 90% of my collection as you'll see in this post is tokidoki! Amongst these I do have a gloomy bear kid robot figure which started my collection, I found it in the window of a charity shop and made my mum que outside for it the next day and at £1 it's the best buy I've ever had! and some skellanimals along with a little mermaid Barbie!

At the moment my collection is mainly based around Unicorno's and Cactus pals! As you have to buy unicorno's blind boxed I have a double of ritmo and bellina as well as dolce, mooka and pepperino I have singly! just 5 more to go till my collections complete, although something tells me i'll never complete my collection without spending too much on opened blind boxes on-line!

So this is how my shelf stands at the moment! I'm putting up another 2 just to compensate on room because I actually have nowhere else to store any more!

No matter how old I get I know there's one thing that will never change.. I will forever continue to collect vinyl figures, it captures my childhood in a heartbeat and I'll forever hold on to that.

Tim Shumate Appreciation

So I know I've posted images by Tim Shumate before but I decided that he derserved an appreciation post because I honestly believe his illustrations are worth admiring, and this time next month I'll have two of his designs tattooed on me and I'm planning a third incorporated in my sleeve.

Hello kitty cube craft

I decided to try the Hello Kitty Cube from :- http://www.cubeecraft.com/

thinking it would be easy! but 3 hours later I completed it realising that it actually isn't and using normal A4 paper was a huge mistake!  So the Next one I make, which I will be making soon I'll use a tougher more durable paper! (it does specify that thicker paper is better on the page itself).

so yeah, the final product ....

I'm really happy with it, it has a few minor mistakes but for my first attempt it looks good amongst my vinyl toy collection!

Bought a little mermaid vest that arrived this morning! so happy with it even if it was addressed backwards! my obsession with Ariel is going a bit far now but really couldn't pass up this vest she's tattooed and pierced including a septum ♥





Pretty sure this spring/summer I'm heading back to my rebellious clothing style! I live in short, shorts that come above my Tattoo but studs, lace and creeps are a must I think I keep falling in love with so many!
