Cute peanut buttons on people art
I think it’s Brazilian language that’s being used on this website featuring cute Peanut Buttons but that’s not important as long as I am agreeable that their stuff are cute!
It looks like they’ve used illustrations from different artists on the buttons and I am particularly drawn to those featuring people. Some of them are outrageously quirky while others are simply adorable.
The buttons come in two sizes - 3.5cm and 2.5cm. I think orders will have to go to contato@peanutcompany.net but I’m not sure what kind of quantity they’re accepting or if they ship internationally.

Cute Korean stationery from Artbox
I’m not a huge fan of K-Pop or for that matter, anything Korean. But Korean stationery is another story. They’re drop dead cute! More so than their Japanese counterparts actually. I went a little ga-ga over them during my last visit to that country but I have to concede - they’re expensive too!
So I was really elated that they’ve opened Artbox at a retail mall that’s rather near me. In fact, I head there at least once a week and I just can’t resist picking out something from the shop, no matter how small an item. I’m a notepad freak if that must be known, so I’ve already stocked up some of those, and will probably continue to stock them up. I also love those Sweet Journey Name Tags from Monopoly Design.
I’m lucky but I don’t know about others where Artbox isn’t available because I can’t seem to find much of their stuff online which isn’t in Korean, with the exception of Arkness Shop though the range is rather limited.
Okay, kill me.

Nature inspired eco-friendly wooden cards
If you’re big on cards, you gotta check out these original nature inspired eco-friendly wooden cards from Night Owl Paper Goods. Uniquely designed with cute motifs like owls, squirrels, bears, birds and flowers, each A2 size card measures 4 3/8″ x 5 3/4″ and is by itself, a small piece of art!
The cards are described as eco-friendly sustainably-harvested yellow birch on the basis that no water and little power are used because wood is sliced thin to produce a large number of unique products from a small amount of raw material. In addition, birch trees are indeed replanted.
You can pick from love notes to holiday cheers and some are designed to resemble much like post cards which allows you to write your message on the back with pen, pencil or marker. And because they’re made from wood, you may like to know that the wood grain actually varies from card to card, making each one 100% unique.
International shipping is available.
