Busy busy busy

Have you ever had so much on your to-do list that you've just wanted to yell and throw everything off of your desk? Not sure if I'm the only one :P But really, it's frustrating! Hopefully I can get it all done. Aside from working on holiday stuff, I've also had a couple of kids request a few pokemon dolls, which I gladly accepted because, I mean... how cute!! >.<
This post is kind of pointless, I guess. An update never hurt anyone :)

Holiday items now available

Yes, I understand the holidays haven't started yet, but many people start shopping as early as July, which is why I've started to stock some Halloween and Christmas items! There's tree ornaments, home decorations, cute gifts, and many other cute crocheted/felt creatures. There's more to come, though, so keep checking during these months to come :)
Also, last year I promised a Christmas gift for my followers, but couldn't come through because it didn't turn out so well, but this year I've decided to host a giveaway! I just need your help: should it be one big amigurumi doll, or a basket (not literally basket :P) of small trinkets?
Have a Lindo day!

Insert creative title about zombies

Do you see that cage around the grave? This grave dates waaay back to the Victorian age. They believed in zombies and other creatures coming back from the dead, so they used these contraptions to prevent corpses from escaping. Creepy, right? I guess this is one way to prevent a zombie apocalypse ;)

Say hi to-

Felt Bunnies! I thought the bunny hair clip was way too adorable, so I made actual bunnies! >.<
Soon they'll come in different colors and patterns, but so far, what do you think?

Spring is almost here!

The sun's starting to shine and warm up our shivering bodies. There's less than a month left until the beginning of lovely spring! What are your spring plans? Vacation, or work work work?
The flowers that are starting to bloom make such a great inspiration and motivation to get to work, but what do you think? Does spring make you feel like you have to work more or slack off? Are sales the one that are slacking off on us?

Monkeying Around

Oh yes, now it's possible to carry the party with you everywhere you go with our Monkey Key Chain! It's the first monkey to be part of the Om Nom Lindos family ^.^
Restocking is going slowly due to errands and other busy things, but keep your eye out for new stuff, like accessory kits for your Lindos! Cute? No. Lindo? Absolutely!

New Lindo Look

Well, first off, I'm back from my own little personal vacation! I also took out everything from my shop to make room for new (and better) stuff! So, I have to re-stock now. It'll take some time, but surely Om Nom Lindos will grow to something more kawaii than before ^.^


Also, a new Lindo look!

What do you think?

Packaging!

[Picture from nicepackageblog.com]
I bought all new stuff for adorable packaging (my old packaging was not cute enough). I bought pink lunch bags, tissue paper, stickers, etc. Now, I'm just waiting for someone to buy so I can package!!!! ^.^

I found this great website with so many amazing packaging ideas that may be useful for all you Etsy sellers: Nice Package. They havent updated in a few weeks, but just browse through the old posts and it's very inspiring :)

Do you know any other websites with great packaging tips and ideas? Just comment with the link and it'll surely be posted on a 2nd ONL blog post :D

Also, don't forget about our first GIVEAWAY! You won't want to miss that!

Post Christmas Slump & Sketches

Is anyone else experiencing a post Christmas slump? Not one sale after the holidays, and I have alot of Valentine's amigurumi I need to sell. I've been thining that maybe if I put up a promotion, like Free gift with purchase, but ooohh weeellppp xD
On another note, this is a question directed toward amigurumi makers: do you sketch your amigurumi before crocheting it? I've seen alot of Etsy shops with their amigurumi sketch, and on blogs, too! I'm just curious about it. Is it really helpful, or just to help shape your amigurumi? I want to try it, but Im horrible at sketching :P
