Whilst checking on one of our favourite blogs – Supercutekawaii we stumbled upon an Etsy shop called Fantastic Toys. Everything in their shop is cute and if your are into paper craft your gonna love it! They specialize in handmade soft toys and printable paper crafts.
I am in love with the little cake houses. You can lift off the roof and use it to stash yummy things.
We just found Pinkytoast on Etsy and have fallen in Love. We do not know much at all about this artist but absolutely adore her work. You can find original art, prints and painted dolls in her Etsy shop – http://www.etsy.com/shop/pinkytoast
Kookizu is a one girl operation based in London. She makes the cutest acrylic necklaces out there, for real! There seems to be an abundance of laser cut pendants out there at the moment and Kookizu’s designs are far superior to anything we have seen for a long time. They all come with multiple etched charms and a small logo tag . So if you are in need of some uber cute jewellery this is a must. Items range from £7-9 so as well as been totally awesome they are a steal!
The Kookizu range is due in store from next week (20th July).
We stumbled across the wonderful world of Zombuki a few months ago and loved it so much we asked Brigitte if she would make us some Zomuki jewellery. Well she did and they are here! We have 8 beautiful glass tile pendant designs to choose from. We only have 3 of each design so be quick as they will not hang around for long. Check all of the awesome Zombuki merchandise here – http://www.chicki.co.uk/zombuki/cat_120.html
If you are in Glasgow any time until the 25th of July we think you should check out The Co-Laboratory at the Recoat Gallery.

Here at Chicki we have been going crazy over paper toys. One of our favourite sites would have to be Dolly Oblong for her paper totem project.
Dolly Oblong is a crafty designer who creates cute quirky characters in all shapes and sizes, preferably while drinking tea and munching away cookies. The colourful world of Dolly Oblong is 100% handmade out of plush, paper and occasional bits of vinyl.
We also got our copy of the book – We Are Paper Toy’s a few weeks ago and recommend it to everyone. It even comes with a disk full of super duper paper toys to create!
