Decorate felt balls with embroidery

Via Bloomize I came across this Japanese magazine with instructions for making embroidered felt balls (see p. 15). So pretty for Christmas ornaments or shade pulls or embellishments on gifts... True, the directions are in Japanese, but I bet you could figure it out using the diagrams for inspiration. If you want to buy plain felted balls, search Etsy. Or to make your own, try this tutorial.

Awesome Gift Ideas

Shinzi Katoh Strawberry Crystal Ring - $78

Of course, I'm a Shinzi Katoh fan! He is one of my favorite artists. In fact, when I first started sassyNpunk, I stocked some of his Fairy Tale bags at sassyNpunk Boutique. However, his work is a little bit pricey, so be prepared to dish out quite a bit for something with his name on it.

Yum Yum Bento Box Cookbook - $16.95

Books sometimes are thought of as "last minute" or "thoughtless" gifts. However, that is totally untrue! I personally love getting books as gifts, especially DIY books. Trust me, if you know someone who is crafty, loves to cook, or has a unique hobby, they are definitly the type of person who will appreciate a book on the subject. The Yum-Yum Bento Box Cookbook combines two of my favorite things, cute kawaii characters and cooking! If you know someone like me, then this book would make a perfect gift.

Necono Digital Camera Kit & Pouch - $180

Ok, this is officially the coolest camera on earth! The Necono Digital Camera is a real digital camera shaped like a cat! But wait, It gets better! This is not only a still photo camera, but it also captures video too! I'm unsure about the quality of the photos though. I have not personally used this camera kit, so I can't really vouch for anything but it's cuteness ;) However, if someone gave this to me... it would be love at first sight!

Cat Scratch Turntable - $38

No list would be complete without a gift for your beloved pet! This Cat Scratch Turntable is probably the coolest cat gift you could possibly buy this Holiday Season. All the cats on the block will be jealous of your cool kitty scratching on his kitty turntable. If anyone buys this, pleeease take video or pictures and send them to us at support@sassyNpunkBoutique.com or upload them to our Flickr group pool so I can feature them on the blog.
