He destroyed my berry tart! It was just simply too delicious

I will always point out the Great Crested Flycatcher. You gotta be quick to catch that one note wonder

Outing with a friend who got me into oshikatsu! She created a MONSTER

Like the bag shown here! I decided to do the top portion due the limited space and it worked out great. Thank you so much for the inspiration and great tips!

I used a clear file zipper pouch.

This is my least intricate ita bag design- more suited for causal outings, the gym, and amusement parks 😊 just need to get some more items + nui pouch to keep my plush clean.

2nd picture is the original stock photo of what my bag looked like pre-decoration.

Character is Gaopowerroo! (Sanrio)

She's almost ready!

Made a dainty ita bag I can take to the gym, amusement parks, or a casual outing. I see the issue with my big ita bags are that while they show my appreciation to my oshis (whoohoo!), they:

A.) Don't always match the outfit

B.) Hefty, bulky to haul around

C.) I worry about the bag getting dirty/decorations falling down inside bc of the weight

The less intricate design and smaller bag tackles all these issues. The only concern is that I have to get a mini scrapbook to put in my bag since my big scrapbook album that holds my stands/buttons/etc won't fit

I just need a few more items + nui bag to keep the plush clean. Otherwise.. she's ready for the world 🥳

Oshi is Gaopowerroo, from Sanrio!! He debuted in 2022 and was created from a collab between Sanrio and the company Chocolate. He's actually a dinosaur, believe it or not! 🦕 Gaopowerroo loves omurice and lives on omurice island. Dude is so cute and goofy

Got proposed on a bird trail!! (<- loves birds. Swipe right to see more). Absolutely elated. Doesn't feel real.

Center stone: Alexandrite, coffin cut, 6*8mm

Side stones: Mossaniate

18K YG. Size 6.5

This was part of a custom set from StarlandUS.

Dear reader, I pass the torch onto you :)

Took the first picture on a birding trail and turned around to the 2nd 😭 I hope this post + meme I made is okay to share here!

Any other birders hoping to be engaged- I'm passing the torch onto you!!

I understand why people celebrate their oshis birthday now! You just get the warm fuzzies when it comes around.

...of my beloved mysterious stars 😎

Real mysterious star hours 🐟

Yay!!!!! 🥰

I want to say my bag is 80% done. I'm seeing oshikatsu is also something you also get better with with time.

Made the rosette in the bottom right corner in the first and second picture. It actually wasn't that hard like I thought it would be! I bought a pre-made one originally (third picture) but saw so many of you made your own.

I also saw a lot of handmade backdrops for the inserts- that wasn't hard either!! It just more daunting to think about than actually doing it lol.

Thank you everybody for the inspiration for the past month in building my bag :) 💐

I love going on my walk and hearing a murder of American crows sounding like they're watching football

In a tea room with Hangyodon and Hangyon 😄 I didn't expect it to be so fun!
