I was at the Paper Source the other day and couldn’t help but staring at these beautiful papers… Aren’t they all so lovely?! Makes me want to create something!

DIY: Pompoms From Cupcake Liners

When I saw this image below on Design*Sponge last week, I was all over it. So cute, fun and oh my god, it’s made out of cupcake liners and I can make one, too?! (see the whole post for direction on how to make one) I immediately bookmarked thinking I’m going to make this someday… someday really soon… (hint to myself: my birthday is coming up next month.)

and then, I found these really cute cupcake liners on HeyYoYo shop (great shop by the way, you get inspired by looking at everything there!) — now I am seriously obsessed.

These will be great on weddings, baby showers, birthdays… any parties! :) Do you know of anywhere I can get more lovely cupcake liners? If so, let me know! xo Hijiri

Gorgeous Paper Dress

Spotted this gorgeous dress in a lobby of 7 W building. And it is made out of paper leaves! Made me look even more.

Love the neckline, too…

Ever since October hit, it is officially fall here in NYC. This is perfect for the season, too.

I love the surprise when you open the card — there are spaces for your personal message, too :)
