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!

I have prepared some postcards and new name cards ^o^ I will be sharing more previews of the items (Mostly for Smart doll girls and should also fit Dollfie Dream II/III) I am bringing in this post as it gets closer to Sunday 14th December!

I am already back in Vancouver, a little jet lagged still, with some odd muscle pains ^o^;
But I wanted to say a BIG and heart felt THANK YOU Blythe Con Japan, the Organizers, Volunteers and Sponsors! It was a super awesome convention, and I enjoyed myself thoroughly despite some personal hiccups on the day of! Like sneezing too hard due to allergies and pulling an odd back muscle the morning of Blythe Con…. o_o; And thank you to my kind kind hosts (you know who you are!) for having me this time, it really helped to have a roof and company, and also sound advice for my reducing the pain from my odd injury XD! Words cannot describe my gratefulness :) I was telling my husband how much fun it was when one day the adults of the household were all playing with dolls at night LOL! I will post some quick snippets from my phone here, there is quite a lot to share, so I will be eventually posting other photos and activities in detail when I can.
I also want to thank my dear husband for staying back to care for our furkids, especially Ginko (she has epilepsy and needs medication 3 times a day, hence it was not possible for us to travel together for a while now…) I wished he could have come with me, but I am really also very thankful if not for him staying behind, I probably won’t be able to bring myself to focus on the convention and activities around it.

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. :)

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^/
