They did me so proud in all pf the packaging, including a bio card with each pass case....

...AND, Check out the exclamation point!
I am an exclamation-point over-user, so I'm a little extra-thrilled with my exclamation point! :D

These hang-tags are to die for! (And the back of each doggie pass has my copyright and name on it, too. Pretty cool!)
So proud of these adorable little pass cases... and of my partnership with Bestever Japan.
Can't wait to share what is next!
You can get your very own pass case from my collection with Bestever
here.
Hugs!!
Howdy! I mentioned my partnership with Japanese company Bestever Japan a few weeks ago but wanted to take a moment today to give you a little more of a formal introduction to them and to what they do. Bestever Japan makes cute, and I mean C-U-T-E character products, with a tight focus on breed-specific dogs, and cats. How perfect for me, a former whimsical pet portrait artist turned children's illustrator turned art licensor! Kind of a written-in-the-stars type of partnership, wouldn't you say?
The entire product line is called The Kathy Weller Collection. On the site, they have a nice feature introducing me to the market, on every product detail page.  |
Cool! |
Late last week, Bestever launched the first of our planned products: train pass cases in
six designs. Two doxie, two poodle, two chihuahua. How fun are they?
 |
How cute are the backs? A different coordinating color, plus my name and copyright. |
Japan is full of commuters, so they will get a lot of cute USE out of these pass cases! My city Boston is too, and I cannot wait to tote around my own "T" pass hanging off my bag in one of these adorbie pass cases. They are so sweet, I just LOVE them. Especially the big fuzzy "o". They're awesome- it's like taking your stuffed animal with you every day. (I'll probably have to consciously stop myself from hugging my pass case in public.)
I've got my eye on the brown Doxie/purple background and the light tan Chihuahua / pink background.

Awwwww!!!!! |
There will be more launches soon. This is where patience comes in handy, because I'm excited about what's coming up— stuff that is especially useful for the modern, cuteness-addicted woman on the go. Okay, no more hints.
These are sold only in Japan BUT, if you simply CANNOT LIVE without one :) you can purchase one easily
here. (They accept credit cards and will ship to U.S. via
EMS shipping service. I can't speak to how much the shipping costs from Japan to U.S. are, but I can only imagine that it is pretty pricey. )
Anyway, that's all for this Bestever update. More news when I have it! :D
holy flip! They are so cute :)
Oh thanks so much Megan!! :D They have that awesome plastic smell too that I remember from childhood! Hee hee! It's very special actually!! Happy in many ways!! :D
These are so cute! Congratulations on your new collection.
