Monthly Round-up. November 2010

Wow! There goes another month! And what a month it was. A month in which we finally got a new, and much needed, KawaiiPunk logo makeover, and myself and the Grumpy Mascot also got some slightly less needed makeovers ourselves! And along the way we also got to see the fantastically cool works of ClumsyPlush, Twistyfishies, and Paper Biscuit to name a few. And, of course, there was also our monthly puzzle! Did you work out the name of our newest mascot?


Fantastic! It was the Mod Mascot! Well, I suppose the big letter “M” on his belly was something of a clue in itself! Anyway, be sure to come back next month when we’ll have plenty more kawaii crafts and creations for you all to enjoy. And, as a special treat for my fellow mascots, we’ll also be having our annual KawaiiPunk Christmas party! Bet they can’t wait for that :)

See you all in December.
Your host with the most,
Ed Mascot :)

Berry Bunny Brilliance!

Woo hoo! It’s me again readers - the Mischief Mascot! Did you miss me? Of course you did! Tee hee! But enough shenanigans! Because today I’m not here to talk about myself. Oh no, today I’m here to tell you all about another master of mischief! He’s a professional party crasher, part time astronaut, and, apparently, a big fan of sock puppets too! And his name? It’s Berry Bunny…


Yippee! Just when I thought I was the only lover of all things mischievous left on the planet, I find this groovy little guy! And, as if that wasn’t enough good news, I also find out he’s got his own Zazzle store too - packed with t-shirts, caps, mugs, buttons, bags and more! And all of them as cool as they come! But don’t just take my word for it, even though I’m right, head on over to the Berry Bunny store and have a look for yourselves! You won’t regret it!

Long live mischief,
Mischief Mascot :)

Freaky Christmas Card!

Dear Freak Mascot,

You may remember back in February I sent you a Valentine’s card (Re. Freaky Valentine’s Card!) because I thought it was unfair for you to be excluded from the celebrations. Well, after reading the Frost Mascots latest post (Re. KawaiiPunk Christmas Cards!) I realised that the same problem was about to rear its ugly head once again! So I created this…


Yes, you’ve guessed it! It’s a Christmas card with a picture of yourself on it! Unfortunately, once again, I have absolutely no idea who in their right mind would consider using such a card, but at least they’d have option to do so if the desire took them! Which it probably wouldn’t! But hey, maybe you could send it to yourself? I mean, you are a freak after all!

Merry Christmas,
Annabelle Hutchinson. Aged 28.



Thanks Annabelle! The card looks great! Unfortunately however I’ve already sent myself a Christmas card this year. I did back in July to avoid the rush! Well, as you so rightly put it, I am a freak after all :)

Merry Christmas to you too,
Freak Mascot :)

Pretty Perfection at Paper Biscuit

As many of you regular readers will know, I’m no stranger to the wonderful world of accessories. And I’m also no stranger to enthusing about them either! Which is exactly what I’m planning on doing today! Because today I’m going to introduce you all to a shop that’s got some of the cutest, not to mention coolest, accessories I’ve seen in a long time. So here it is…


See what I mean? The shop is called Paper Biscuit and I found it while browsing through my favourite place in the whole world wide web - Etsy! Paper Biscuit sells astoundingly cute earrings, necklaces, rings, and bracelets that will bring smiles to the faces of all who see them. And believe me, these are the kind of cute accessories you’ll want people to see :) Enjoy!

Always accessorising,
Sweet Mascot :)

Nameless Newcomer! ??? Mascot!

Woohoo! It’s puzzle time! And this month I’ve got a real special treat for you! Because not only have I got a fiendishly fun puzzle for you to solve, but I’ve also got a world exclusive sneak preview of the first KawaiiPunk Mascot for 2011! That’s right, a brand new mascot that has never been seen anywhere else before! And here he is…


Ta da! Impressive, isn’t he? But wait, it seems that there’s something missing! Well, it wouldn’t be much of a puzzle if there wasn’t! So I guess that’s why there is! If you get what I’m saying! But enough tomfoolery! The question is… can you work out the name of this new “sixties inspired” “big eyed” mascot? Hmmm… did I just give you a clue? Find out when the answer is revealed in this month’s monthly round-up!

Happy guessing folks,
Puzzle Mascot :)

Not So Grumpy Mascot!

Dear Grumpy Mascot,

After the resounding success of my last email (Re. A New Ed Mascot?) I decided I should have a go at another mascot makeover. Well, with the talents I’ve got, it really would be a waste no to! So I decided to turn my impeccable eye for style to your own grumpy self. Because let’s face it, if there’s anyone around here that really needs a makeover, it’s got to be yours truly! And here’s the result…


As you can see I decided the best way to improve your image was to make you less grumpy looking! I have done this by giving you a party hat, a pair of oversized comedy glasses and, most importantly of all, a smile! I think the result is simply fabulous, and what’s more, I won’t even charge you a penny for my services. Hope you enjoy it!

Because first impressions last,
Tamara Tallulah



Is this some sort of joke? Did the Mischief Mascot put you up to this? I mean honestly, getting me out of bed to waste my time with this nonsense? Haven’t you people got anything better to do with your time?

Goodbye,
Grumpy Mascot :(

Tasty Tees from Tambatoys

This probably won’t come as a surprise to you but, as a Teddy Mascot, I happen to be a big fan of toys! See, I told you it wouldn’t come as a surprise :) Anyway… as a fan of toys I was very excited to hear about a toymaker who also has a RedBubble store. And what’s more, I’m pretty sure you readers are going to get very excited too! So what are we waiting for? Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Tambatoys…


Cool, isn’t it? At the Tambatoys store you can pick up beautiful t-shirts and cards - all adorned with some truly adorable and original artwork. Bunnies, birdies, robots, and yetis are all in attendance, as well as a good few other characters too! And every single design is as stunning as it is stylish! And, as if that wasn’t enough for you lucky readers, there’s even an armadillo t-shirt too! How cool is that?

Tees and toys forever,
Teddy Mascot :)

KawaiiPunk Christmas Cards!

Hey folks! Aren’t you just loving this cold weather we’re having? What? You’re not! Oh well, I guess it’s just me then! But you have to admit it’s not all bad! After all, it does mean Christmas is well and truly on its way! Hurrah! And with that glorious though in mind, I’d like you all to take a look at this…


Yep, that’s right, it’s the fantastically festive KawaiiPunk Christmas card collection! Woo hoo! Now you can amaze your friends and family by sending them cards with myself and my good friend the Snowman Mascot on them. How cool is that? No pun intended! All you have to do is head on over to our Zazzle or CafePress shops and you can have your very own kawaii Christmas! Ho ho ho!

Happy writing,
Frost Mascot :)

Lovely Goods from Lovely Girls

A lot of people think choosing the right name is an art. And as someone who’s called the Adorable Mascot, I have to say I wholeheartedly agree with them! What? I am adorable :) So when I heard about a shop called Lovely Girls I knew I was going to be in for a kawaii treat! And, you’ll be happy to hear, I was right! Don’t believe me? Then take a look at this…


What you are looking at is just a tiny fraction of the incredible kawaii goodies available from the equally incredible Lovely Girls Zazzle shop! And what a shop it is! Packed with over a thousand super cute products, the Lovely Girls shop can truly be said to be a one stop shop for all things kawaii! Looking for cute t-shirts? They’ve got them! Want some sweet stationery? Step right up! Fancy a kawaii skateboard! No problem! In fact, this shop’s got so many cute goodies, you may never have to shop anywhere else again!

Loving the loveliness,
Adorable Mascot :)

A New Ed Mascot?

Dear Ed Mascot,

As a regular reader (yes, you do have some!) I was very excited to read your recent post about the new KawaiiPunk logo. (Re. New KawaiiPunk Logo! At Last!) However, it also got me thinking… Why stop at a new logo, when there’s so many other things at KawaiiPunk you could change too! Can you guess what I’m talking about? That’s right! Mascot makeovers! I know, I’m a genius! And where better to start than with your own sweet self…


Brilliant, isn’t it? As you can see I’ve decided to give you contact lenses, a new hairstyle, and a bowtie - because everyone loves bowties! And, even if I do say so myself, I think it improves your looks ten fold! If not, more! And best of all, as I’m sure everyone will undoubtedly agree, with this cracking new image you’ll never be called a nerd again! Because I have heard that happens quite a lot! Sorry!

Your sensational stylist,
Tamara Tallulah



Thanks Tamara. It’s always nice to hear from our regular readers. And a relief to know we actually have some! And thanks for the mascot makeover mock-up too! I’ll be sure to try it out some day, if I’m ever invited to a “dress like an oddball” party that is!

Thanks again,
Ed Mascot :)

Top Toys from Twistyfishies

Here at the KawaiiPunk Blog we mascots are all fans of the cute. And I’m not talking about myself when I say that! Although, just between you and me, I am one of the more popular mascots around here :) But while we often feature posts about jewellery and t-shirts, there is one area of the cute-o-sphere we often overlook… toys! Well, today that changes readers. Because today we’re going to meet the amazing Twistyfishies…


See what I mean? Twistyfishies is an Etsy shop that sells fantastically cute amigurumi, felt, and plush toys. And with everything from birds and bunnies to foxes and bears it really is a shop with something for everyone! It’s even got a monkey! And an elephant! And a lion! And a giraffe too! And a… ahhh, why don’t you head on over and find out for yourselves! Believe me, you won’t be disappointed :)

Keeping it cute,
Cute Mascot :)

New KawaiiPunk Logo! At Last!

As regular readers may have noticed, there’s something not quite right about this blog. And no, I’m not talking about our use of the phrase “regular readers.” After all, we’re bound to have some! At least I hope we do! Anyway… what I am talking about is the KawaiiPunk logo. You know, the one that doesn’t actually say KawaiiPunk! Well guess what folks? Yip, after only two years of using a logo that doesn’t actually state our name, the guy behind KawaiiPunk has finally got around to creating a new one! And here it is…


Pretty cool, isn’t it? Unfortunately however, at the time of writing this post, the only place you’re going to find this new logo is right here! In this very post! But fear not folks, because we’ll soon be rolling out this new logo on all our KawaiiPunk websites and shops! And we’ll probably be featuring it on some t-shirts too! Although given it’s taken two years to get this far, I don’t think I’ll be holding my breath! Still, better late than never!

Getting there in the end,
Ed Mascot :)
