Storenvy Saturday # 1

I adore Storenvy's format to Etsy and I notice a lot of shops switching over as well. I just think Storenvy is more user-friendly from envying (Storenvy's equivalent to Etsys favoriting and Facebook liking) to actually purchasing products and imputing coupon codes. So I decided every Saturday to post some Fairy Finds for all of you adorable people out there. I may need to play with this for a month and figure out if you guys like me highlighting a single store each week or highlighting what I have found that week that I absolutely adore.

Ichigo Shop is a cute little store from Italy that I have ordered from before. They make the most amazingly flawless clay jewelry that is so sugary sweet! I actually own the necklace pictured above but it is still available in so many colors! I really want to buy the yellow version next! This necklace costs $13.00 USD which is a good price. The chains are a plastic covered in thread that makes them so soft and cute. The note hangs off of pastel colored plastic hearts with silver interlocking eyepins. The note itself is made from clay and is covered in a glitter finish which makes it super unique! All of the ribbons, the star, the heart, and the bow is made from clay and the note has a little piercing with a star hanging from it. I love mine and I am certain you will love yours too! VERY cute for Pop Kei and Mahou Kei too!

Reiji just recently posted a lot of really cute cell phone dust plugs! Based in Hong Kong this shop sells a lot of cute items, and one of my favorites is these macaroon dust plugs selling for $9.90 USD in a plethora of pastel colors. I have seen less elaborate dustplugs sell for a higher price so this I would say is very reasonable. That being said, I have also found cute dustplugs on eBay for $1.00 USD so the purchase is up to you. If you can't afford this, taking a preexisting charm and looping it on a chain and through the plastic hook on the base of the plug is simple to do as well. Either way these are cute for Fairy Kei or Lolita.

S&R Stationery sells all sorts of desk and stationery items are reasonably low prices. These pastel black ink pens come in three amazing colors: green, pink, and creme. I adore anything pastel and at $1.50 USD per pen these are A STEAL. Even when the ink runs out these contain a basic cartridge size and can easily be refilled. If you can't be bothered with that they make an amazing display. Show off your wild side in a conservative manner with these cute pens!

Okay you Otaku's or girls obsessed with Mahou Kei and Pop Kei - THIS IS AN AMAZING ITEM FOR YOU. Whether it's for a decoration, sending stickers to penpals, or making little ornaments to hang from trees or accessory shelves these envelops with diecutout paper are for you! I love the girly colors and the bold designs. $3.50 USD gets you five envelopes and five cut outs PLUS she is holding a special where you get two more free envelopes! Visit Strawberry Milkmade to find this and more handmade items that are just as magical and unique! 

I have ordered from Oh My Kokoro before and her rings are amazing ranging from $3.00 USD ~ $5.00 USD. This particular design is $5.00 USD. You get to choose the color of the biscuit and then you have many more options each coming in a range of different colors: melty drizzle, custom writing, stars, glitter finish   - ALL FOR $5.00 USD! 

Fun little story: I actually said for one of my rings to say "뽀뽀" but if it wasn't possible that "ちゅ" would be just as fine in chocolate writing. She was kind enough to make both and email pictures to me. I was in love with both so much that I asked if it was possible to send another $5.00 USD directly to her paypal account - SHE GAVE ME THE SECOND RING FOR ONLY $3.00 USD. 

I am not saying that the shop owner will do this for everyone, maybe she just felt extra nice that day or could afford to do such a thing at that time. I felt like sharing a special little moment with you all because it shows how kindhearted the shop owner is. THANK YOU SO MUCH ~ 

OKAY KYARMY! Now you can (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧  PON PON WEI WEI WEI all the way to the grocery store with this adorable Kyary Pamyu Pamyu coin purse available at Octopie for $10.00 USD! The artist even sells stickers and cards with her Kyary design! The artwork is so perfect and pretty and really encaptures much of magic and design in her music videos. This is perfect for Fairy Kei, Pop Kei, Mahou Kei, or any member of the Kyarmy! Be sure to check out some of her other amazing deigns and artwork to!

$2.50 USD will get you this adorable knit bow by Cake of the Dead. She makes lots of amazing knitted items as well as some jewelry. There are many different yarns to choose from for all of her items - including cute circle scarfs! These are PERFECT for Fairy Kei! I can easily see a Sweet Lolita wearing this on a casual day. I know I will be buying from this store in the future!

This last item is for all of you decoden lovers! Some of you make all of your pieces yourself but for those of you who buy items this is a great find! Over at Kawaii Junction they not only sell squishies but they sell some decoden supplies that are so cute. For a single silicone dollop of whipped cream it is only $0.30 USD. Yes it would be cheaper to make these yourself but for people who don't have the time, can't buy the supplies, or don't want to make a mess this is an excellent solution!



I hope you all enjoyed this week's Storenvy Saturday and I look forward to making a post like this every week! This was actually a great idea because I can do a little bit at a time and then set an automatic post for Saturday so you can always expect to see these. Let me know what you think of this post and if you would like to see more in the future. Is there anything you want me to change? Perhaps you would want me to post only stores I have bought from even though I try to review all of them? Or maybe you want me to focus on one shop every week? I love hearing feedback from all of you Fairies and Lolis out there! ^^
