The inspiration for this shop has always came from my love for my dog, Yuki, a Shiba Inu who I've adopted in April 2009. She makes every problem shrink into little tiny speckles of dust and every time I look at her, her puppy-dog eyes tell me a sweet story that fills my heart with a sense of warmth & joy. Like a lovely letter written by her little soul. The concept of the shop is a way of sharing that happiness I receive from her to you.
I originally started this shop back in August of 2009 selling hand-sewn Shiba Inu keychains. While I enjoyed making them & hope to someday bring them back and improve on the quality, that will have to be put on hold now due to my injured wrist preventing me to from doing certain motions without feeling pain.
During the past year of self-discovery & designing items for an entirely different shop with a whole different concept, it has led me to designing new items for THIS shop!
I love minimalism and I wanted to bring that into my designs. Minimalism does NOT mean minimal effort! Each design is carefully thought-out until I am completely satisfied with the results. As I've always said to myself: I would not sell it if I wouldn't buy it myself. All designs are my original artwork and illustrations. Each item sold here are original designs, printed & hand-cut one at a time by yours truly.
I really hope you can appreciate the thought, hard work & effort that has been put into each idea. Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
