Some fun things we’ve found to keep you going until next week.
The Rilakkuma Store manager plush are doing a bit of a victory lap on Instagram before they leave us (don’t goooo!). If you’re in Japan, you can buy souvenir items in stores too (or pay a fortune on Ebay).
There’s also a new poster for the upcoming Rilakkuma Netflix series with some intriguing new details. There’s definitely a big sweets theme.
Pottery Barn Teen have a spooky-cute new Hello Kitty collection that even glows in the dark! Sadly us UK/EU folks are not even allowed to look at the website but Hello Kitty Junkie has shared lots of photos.
Floresta in Japan have teamed up with Little Twin Stars for some adorable - and healthy! - donuts with purple sweet potato and strawberry flavours. Only available for the next 2 weeks.
The Pom Maker newsletter is back and well worth subscribing to for pom pom inspiration, tutorials and maker interviews. Find the form at the bottom of their website.
