It’s a tough job, but she is happy to do it! She creates, photographs, lists, packages and mails every single item in this shop.
Her life outside of sewing consists of ridiculous amounts of reading and writing, Etsy shopping addiction, growing plants, searching for the best coffee shops, collecting eclectic handbags, cooking spicy food, caring for her catfish, and her transatlantic boyfriend.
At Shizuka Urusai, you will find super cute Zipper Pouches, Pencil Cases, Pincushions, Tissue Holders, Coin Purses and more! All of the finest cotton and thread is used in each creation to assure a sturdy and beautiful creation. The maker of this handmade Etsy shop hopes you love these crafts as much as she enjoyed making them.

They like the idea of being in their heyday perpetually. They hope you do, too.

Commenting Glitch Issue – Fixed
Posted on: March 23, 2011
Some of my readers have noticed that for a couple of hours there has been a commenting glitch issue, where all commenting on my blog froze. I am so sorry about this! It was a slight technical problem on my blog.
Fortunately, everything has been fixed! The commenting has been restored and all is well.
Because this glitch lasted for several hours, I will be extended the deadline for all of my current giveaways to one more day.
Thank you for your patience!
