Vending at iDoll

I mentioned before, that last year in December I was selling at iDoll for the first time!

Due to my good experience applying and vending at iDoll last time, this year I applied to vend at iDoll Vol. 49 in Tokyo on 23 April 2017!  I will be vending with KitDolls who make crochet items (it will be her first time vending, yoroshiku onegaishimasu!)  If you happen to be in Japan at that time, we hope to see you there! iDoll Vol. 49 will be held at TRC it will be my first time going to that area.

Below is our “PR cut” image — the table number and location will be announced on the iDoll’s website as the date draws closer. I am still preparing the items I am intending to bring/show case so I will post about it when it gets closer too.

When I visited Japan last June for Blythe Con Tokyo, I met up with a Alphond who told me that applying for iDoll for Foreign sellers isn’t very difficult and that I should try for it. Turns out we found some cheap air fare to Japan in November and so I decided to bite the bullet and apply for iDoll!

Sewing lesson with Momolita ^o^/

Last December, I was very fortunate to be able to get into a class hosted by Momoko sensei in Tokyo! I am addressing Momoko san as Sensei, as she is the teacher I am learning new tips and skills from. :) Please check out her website – http://www.momolita.com

I was very interested in attending Momoko sensei’s sewing class for a long time then, but there was never a right time to do it, until last December when I had a short trip to Tokyo, after visiting Singapore. :)

Hanami in Tokyo

Due to some good timing and using our upcoming 10 year wedding anniversary as an excuse, we managed to visit Tokyo for about a week, just in time for Hanami! Meaning of Hanami on wikipedia.

This time we were quite broke (lol) so focused most of the time on taking as many photos as we possibly can, walking about was great exercise too lol! I brought Aki along with me for photos ^o^/
