9 Days Until Christmas

Macy’s NYC! They are open 24 hours for the 3 days before Christmas if you have any last minute shopping at 3am, you can count on them. They are playing Christmas stories on all of their showcase windows, it’s really entertaining and kids love that :)

I love the big “Believe” on the building… and the little star on the letter “i” :)

9 days left…

10 Days Until Christmas

I saw this photo on Flickr (so cute) and realized that the count down has started! So everyday from here on until Christmas, I’ll be posting something I find in the city, my surroundings and things that have great Christmas spirit :)

Today, I saw a big group of people singing gospel music happily in downtown Brooklyn. It was freeeezing, but made my heart warm :) Only in Brooklyn!

Be Happy and Free Holiday Ornament Card

At Kings County Holiday market yesterday, I met lovely Elana from Mélangerie — they have great products like Scratch and Sniff Holiday cards and To Have and To Hold tote bag (and much more!) but I especially love their Be Happy and Free Holiday Ornament Card! Great idea and great typography, and with that little hearts, I was sold.

and it is on my tree today!  May all beings everywhere be happy and free! We could hang this by our door for everyone to see, too… or you could send as holiday cards.

Thank you, Elana, it was very nice meeting you! Hijiri

My Booth & Thank You

I had such a fun time at Kings County General Store Holiday market yesterday, yes, the weather was bad (it rained… again, but could be way worse i.e snow storm) but I got lots of warm support and instant feedback that I never get from selling online, gave me so much energy and motivation! Thank you soo much for each one of you who came and looked at my work, thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I don’t do this often so the display could be better… notes for next time… :) Oh, next time will be Heartfish Press! By the way, you can sign up for our mailing list now, please do if you are interested from here!

and wow, it really is a count down time for Christmas! I should get my stuff together… big time! :)
