Love Monster...

One last Valentine design before I close the work shop for today. This is the Valentine Monster. Will be made tomorrow along with the Valentine cases and put up in the shop on Friday!

Valentine...

Valentines day is closing in on us and thought I'd get some love into the Etsy shop. This is how far I have gotten, and I will work on these tomorrow to see if they will work out or not. Any other ideas or requests of cute stuff you want to see in the Tomo Shop for Valentines day?

Happy New Year!!!

Happy 2013 Everyone! What a year 2012 has been, but I think 2013 will be even better.
Anyway, we're back open and I am looking forward to make new things and be more creative than ever before. Many exciting things have happened, we have two new stockists that I will tell you more about in a different Blog Entry.

Many things will change here at the blog. First of all it will be renamed. The reason for this is that I am doing well enough to finally register my company, but since I run three businesses now I have decided to register them all under the name Triclopod Studios. Tomo will still be Tomo, but a sub-company (if you can call it that) to Triclopod Studios. The blog will now become the home of all my businesses. These three are; of course Tomo Ltd, Sugar Skull Candy and EJ Arts. I started Sugar Skull Candy just before Christmas and haven't had the time to establish it properly, due to the crazy time I had with all the Christmas orders from Tomo and a massive wholesale at the same time. But Sugar Skull Candy is based around tattoo art and I simply make tattoo inspired jewellery. I have only managed to get seven different designs in so far, but I am super happy with how they came out and there will be more in a near future.
EJ Arts is based around myself and my art. I do freelance work as a digital artist from time to time and it is important to have your VAT numbers and everything whilst doing this.

So you will see everything I work on in here from now on. It can be anything from super kawaii cuteness to skulls and bones or big art canvases. I don't think you will be disappointed though, it will only make this blog a bit more interesting and hopefully bring more followers.

I think 2013 will be a great year!

Have you guys got any new years resolutions?
Mine is to stay more organized,
Be even more creative,
And to make my business a big success!

Where the magic happens...

Hello everyone! I thought it was about time that I showed you from where I work. This is my little work corner. I rotate between my craft station and my computer all day long haha. I try to do some stuff in between though but this is mainly where I spend my days. I hope to have a bigger place or even my own workshop one day. But until then I just have to be happy in this little corner of my home. Which I am, very happy! >u<

Closer Introduction...

 As promised, here is a closer introduction to the Triclopods! As I mentioned before there is only a limited amount, two of each available for now. I wanted to try these furs properly before ordering any larger quantities and also wanted your opinion. We will see how these go and then I will decided from there which ones to continue with and if it is worth making more.

They come in four colours: Turquoise, Yellow, Red/White and Hot pink. And the fur is of the most amazing quality. You just have to get one!!!

They are now available from the Etsy shop along with everything else. And don't forget to place your Christmas orders on time! I am working hard this week to get all order sent before Christmas. You got until the 6th of December to place your Christmas orders and they will be sent on the 7th!

The Triclopods...

So I did what I was affraid of doing! I ordered those amazing furs from America and guess what?! It only took a week and a half and they arrives! I was well surprised and my fear of waiting too long for fabrics is now gone!

Anyway, I created this little fellas and I call them Triclopods. Aren't they amazing? I love the vibrant colours and the fur is of the most amazing quality too. I cant stop touching them hahaha. These guys are limited editions for now. I only ordered small bits of fur as I didn't want to spend out to much on something I wasn't sure of. The yellow one and the red and white one I only got two of and the hot pink one and the blue one I only have three of. I don't know when they will be back and want to see how well they do before ordering more fur.

They will be available from the Etsy shop on Monday and I will give you a closer introduction to each one of them then as well.

Thank you guys for pushing me to get these furs. It was sooooo worth every penny!

Noo-Chi and Yoji...

 First out is Noo-Chi! And I really do apologize... I have forgotten to put him up in the shop! That is so bad of me. But he is there now anyway, so head on over to the Etsy shop if you need Noo-Chi in your life! :)
Now this is Yoji! Finally a completely new design! Tomo has been doing really well lately and it has inspired me to be more creative and to come up with more designs. I still need more colourful materials and the problem is that no one seem to be selling them in the UK. I have found a retailer online from america that have some stunning materials but it took so long for the samples to arrive that I am scared of getting a bigger order. But I think it would be worth the wait case the furs are something else. What do you think? And what would you do in my situation? I need to bring some more colour into Tomo's life!

Anyway, you can find Yoji in the Etsy shop toooooo! >u<
