Valentines Flower Teapot Postcard

We had the most wonderful weekend at the Ikigai Sakura Celebration @ikigai.uk @ikigaieventsuk 🌸✨

We absolutely love this event, and we’re so incredibly grateful to everyone who came to visit us and support our little corner. It truly means the world to us 💛

Our very first customer of the weekend made it even more special — he was the organiser’s grandpa, such a sweet gentleman, and (wonderfully!) he’s Finnish 🇫🇮 He chose one of our A4 Finland map prints, which felt like such a meaningful and perfect start to the event 🥹

The venue itself was so beautiful — truly the perfect setting for such a special celebration.

You could really feel how much thought and care had gone into every detail, and it made the whole experience even more magical. Everyone could see how much effort the organisers poured into this event.

A special thank you to the amazing organisers — your hospitality did not go unnoticed. From having water ready on the tables to the lovely helpers checking in on us throughout the day, those thoughtful little gestures made the whole experience feel so warm and special.

We also had some lovely chats with customers about how they discovered the event, and it was so inspiring to hear how much effort went into promoting it — even sending brochures directly to people’s homes!

That level of care and dedication really shows, and it’s what makes this event so memorable.

And of course, thank you to all the friendly vendor neighbours — it was such a joy sharing the weekend with you all. The atmosphere was just incredible ✨

We had such an amazing time and would absolutely love to come back again if the organisers will have us 💕

Now it’s back to the studio for us — we’ll be busy creating more delicious, kawaii, and functional goodies for you all! 🍡🐾

Thank you again for such a special weekend 🌸

Yesterday felt truly magical ✨ I’m so grateful the weather held up and that the market was buzzing as always. We had the loveliest neighbours keeping me smiling all day—it honestly made such a difference 💛

But the highlight was meeting so many of you in person 🥹 Thank you for stopping by, for your kind words, and for supporting my little stationery world. It means more than I can ever say. I really hope these tiny, cute goodies bring a bit of joy into your everyday life 💌

Your support and encouragement are a huge part of why I keep creating ❤️

I’ll be honest—things have been a bit challenging for me work-wise lately. But this year, I’m taking my power back. I want to create more cute, fun, and meaningful designs—for you, and for myself and my family 🌱✨

Stay tuned… there’s so much more to come 💕

This isn’t just my job — it’s my passion.

I’ve always loved food, travel, and drawing, so being able to bring all of these together in my own projects feels really special ✨

Sometimes I still can’t believe this is what I get to do every day.

What’s something you love that you wish could be part of your work?

As you may know, I started my new brand Moggy Mansions @moggymansions this year, and I’ve been adding more cute little cats into my illustrations. 🐱✨

I’d love to hear—do you like this new direction?
