Adventures in KawaiiLand: Ciali in KawaiiLand Review! [ 08-29-2012 ]



Hi, bunnies! It's that time again! What's in the box today?(Fair warning - I might use the words cute, kawaii and adorable a lot in this post xD )



This sweetie lives all the way in Italy and makes just as sweet jewelry and accessories. Her rings, necklaces and earrings all resemble cute things like bunnies and cookies and very delicious looking cupcakes.She is ♥ Ciali in KawaiiLand ♥! (That is the English version to her shop's site. Of course, she also has an Italian version of her site)

For the longest time, I have wanted to own some of her work and I finally got the chance to! Since it was the middle of convention season, I caught her at the right time just as she was making many more goodies to sell. I got quite the haul!



I was able to get a few necklaces, a couple of bracelets, two pairs of earrings and about four yummy-looking rings! She was so very nice to work with. And I even got a free gift!

Now, I know a lot of the people I follow or buy from come from all different art backgrounds but I seldom see graphic designers. I appreciate that she is one and her sites look great. Everything is just too adorable and her hard work shows.


The packaging is another thing I love - very pastel and kawaii, just like the things she makes. I was really happy with the tiny purple stars confetti that dressed up the little packages even more. The first things I opened were the rings I chose. Almost all of her pieces are made with polymer clay and silicone "icing".


I got a lilac bunny cookie, a violet shooting star creme and cookies, a lime green bow creme and cookie, and a very cute pastel rainbow. All of the cookie rings are tall layers with alternating cookie and creme. On the top, there is more creme with different decorations. As you can see, I had to get one of the rings with a bunny. The rainbow ring is the only one that is not layered but still just cute as the rest of them. Each ring comes in their own little gift box with a bright bow.


Next is a pair of candy-looking earrings. These remind me of multicolored twisty marshmallows.Three different colored pieces of polymer clay twist in a spiral up to little yellow stars which are then connected to fish hook earrings. My friends are always tempted to eat them xD


I also got these very delicious-looking macaron earrings. They're pastel blue with little pink bows and white creme in the middle.


The first of the necklaces is a very Fairy-Kei piece. It's a silver chain holding a baby blue rocking horse and a polymer clay rainbow with clouds and a star. I never saw a necklace put together like that but I love it. I wear it often!


The next necklace is actually very similar to the rings I bought. Except this one is an actual cupcake. It's a pink cupcake with lilac icing with a lot of whip cream and star cookies with of course a lot of glitter. And just in case you found yourself really wanting to eat it, there is even a tiny spoon hanging from the silver chain as well.


Another necklace in this batch is more like a set along with one of the bracelets I got. First, the necklace is a long black chain with two little pastel blue stars on either side of a black bunny face. The bracelet has the same bunny but with a rainbow, a lightning bolt, a little moon and a heart all on a baby pink plastic chain.





Another "set" is also from Ciali's macaron section. I got two bracelets, one with regular rounded macarons in different colors and another has heart-shaped ones with mini stars in between. The necklace mimics the bracelet with the star-shapes and mini hearts in between.





 












Of course, I couldn't go without a hair accessory! One of my favorite shapes is the star so I was really excited when I could get a cute little shooting star for my hair. Like all of the other pieces in my order, it is made out of polymer clay. The tail has blue, pink and yellow while the star itself is yellow with a super adorable smiling face.


And finally, my free gift! I thought it was so sweet of her~ It turned out to be a cupcake necklace! It's a very good sized polymer clay cupcake with purple icing and sprinkles. It sits on a silver chain with 6 little stars in similar colors.


I'm so happy that I finally got KawaiiLand stuff! It's very easy to work with her, she makes it a totally fun and painless experience and you get very awesome jewelry that is perfect for any Lolita.


Thank you so much, Ciali! I will definitely be shopping there again!


 Until Next Time~

A Very Cute Review for Ku-Ki Shop! ♥ { 4-1-2012 }

Hello all! Today will be a review on a very cute lil' shop! It's filled with lots of adorable handmade goodies!
The two items in the picture above come from a site called Ku-Ki Shop Aren't they adorable?! I'm sure you all know that I am a big Bunny fan so when I saw these, I knew I had to get them! And it just so happened that she was having a bogo sale so what better time to shop!


The first item is a very adorable set of Bunny Ice Cream Earrings! Aren't they just awesome?! Two very yummy-licious little ice cream cones with Bunny Ice Cream.I never knew ice cream could be so cute! They're made of polymer clay with hooks so no clipping involved. I rather like these more than with clips. Now I have never worked with polymer clay before but these are some of the sturdiest I have seen. I almost thought they were made out of an acrylic or something xD But they're absolutely adorable and since I have worn them, people complimented me and it made me so happy!

The next piece is a necklace called Wonderland Cupcake Necklace
It is a very cute combination of dessert and elements from Alice in Wonderland!It's a very creamy cupcake decorated with strawberrieswith a white rabbit, candy, a rose and some cards! As you can see in my picture, it sits very nicely as a necklace! 

I am very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend this site for cute handmade things. And for the work that goes into these items, the prices are just right! There are quite a few pieces that are made to order but there is also a section of "Ready to Ship" so that is always a plus! It's a really cute site and the owner is very good with communicating with the customer. Everything is easy to follow and you are guaranteed something amazingly adorable.

Thankies so much, Ku-Ki Shop! I love everything and will order again in the future!
Until next time~
