Inspiration Wednesday

Here are a few things I founf while surfing today that caught my eye. Damn! I am going to have to find the time to make one of those amigurumi dolls. They are so intriguing!

Here a couple of monkey friends I had to include in honour of LoobyLu's Month of Softies. Theses guys are found on this japanese site.

While looking up "handmade" on Japanese sites I found this blog which included what I think are zippered pouches. I love their simplicity and serenity.

And again, on the same search I found these sweet embroidered wrist bands. I really like these.

Here's a cute site called Pristine that I found today with lots of wonderfully simple baby items. These are wonderful eye soothers that I guess you heat somehow and then lie on the ground and put them over your eyes. At least that is what the lady in the photo was doing and I envied her so I guess they work well.

I've been eyeing pendants made using glass slides in the past couple of months and I was excited by these ones. There are a few more styles offered here.

Ususally I would name the site, however, although my laptop is equipped with Beta Japanese, I can search but translation is tricky sometimes.
