Posted on 7 May 2013 | 3:30 pm

I know these magnet sets may look familiar to those of you have been following along for a while, but this is the first time we have had them available in our shop! Each set – Cupcakes or Sushi – comes with 4 super strong magnets, depicting photos of my crochet foods!

(I think this is my favorite set of purikura with Manda!)

Also, for the month of May, we are including a mystery pack of 5 free 1″ buttons in every order!

We just got our pins in, and we were like, “Do we really want to list 20 separate different buttons on the site?” Not so much! Maybe later! So we’re giving them away right now! You’re welcome! xoxo

New “Hello Kitty by Twinkie Chan” Scarves Available Now from Yummy You!

Posted on 25 March 2013 | 9:38 pm

Youz guys! I’m so excited that our new collaboration with Sanrio, “Hello Kitty by Twinkie Chan” is now available for purchase at Yummy You!

Some of you may recognize these scarves from Sanrio’s 50th Anniversary art show. We have the same two styles available now. One has 5-characters on cupcakes, and the other has 14 different characters. I should take a photo of the 14-character one stretched out so you can see more of the characters. I kinda blanked on that one!

Ever since I made the originals for the Sanrio party, people have been messaging me, asking me to make one for them, too, so I hope you guys are excited that we produced these via Yummy You!

Do you have a favorite Sanrio character? Mine are Purin and Pandapple!

Easter Egg Drop-Palooza Event in Massachusetts

Posted on 21 March 2013 | 8:05 pm

If you are near Amesbury, MA, you should check out Egg Drop-Palooza on March 30th at Amesbury sports park!

They are going to drop 30,000 Easter eggs filled with goodies, and there are pony rides, helicopter rides, face painting, egg dye-ing, a bunny hop, etc etc.

This event is organized by Lucy’s Love Bus,  a non-profit “delivering comfort to children with cancer” through integrative therapies.

“Lucy’s Love Bus is named after Lucy Grogan, who was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukemia. Lucy herself benefited from integrative therapies, but was upset that many of her friends couldn’t. Though Lucy passed away, her mother Beecher Grogan founded Lucy’s Love Bus in 2006. Since 2006, we’ve helped 101 children in 14 states.

“A program started initially to help heal Lucy’s friends, Lucy’s Teen Leaders is a group of young philanthropists who host fundraisers to help fund Lucy’s Mission. I am honored to be part of this group, especially at the age of 13. Lucy’s Teen Leader program has given me life long skills, such as creating an annual appeal and hosting events. This has also become part of our mission, teaching leadership to others. Lucy’s Teen Leader group has spread within Massachusetts.”

Maggie from Lucy’s Love Bus contacted us at Yummy You! to see if we might donate  to their prize packs, and of course we said yes!

Tickets to this event are only $5. I hope some of you are able to check it out!
