• Chinese New Year starts February 18th. This year 4705/2007 is the Year of the (fire) Pig and I have created a new design for the occasion:

A pig dressed in bright red and gold festive dress and crown is ready to celebrate.


The calligraphy symbols represent the Year of the Pig (left) & Peace (right).

Magnets, buttons, and a ceramic ornament are available.

• I'll soon be switching out some of the products that are seasonal or part of a series: the arts and crafts woodblock style fruit prints, plus the alphabet and animal series.
• Currently there is a new onesie design available, in keeping with the Chinese New Year theme:
