Hello and Happy New Year Patrons!!

Hope you all have been having a great start to the year so far 🧡 I am happy to be back, and thank you for supporting the patreon pause last month. It was restful and I had a chance to catch up on life, take a small vacation, and draw upcoming sticker sheets for you all! How was your New Year and any plans you are looking forward to?

For me, one of my goals is to have more shop updates, even if they are mini ones! Now that I had time to understand how much energy is required to work in-person, I am trying to create better habits of drawing when I can (and if I get sudden bursts/urges to draw, I make the most of them!) ✨

Now a quick update about November mail. November mail will be shipped out by this month. The sheets have not reached me yet as I had to place an order for November, January, and February sticker sheets before my manufacturer closes for their holiday. I understand how long it took to get the mail to you, so thank you so much for the wait. 😭 Trying my best to catch up! Patrons still subscribed this month, should receive January rewards on-time! (If you were a patron both Novemebr and January, I will ship your mail together)

It has been chilly where I am at this time and usually New Year traditions for me center around family and hot pot. January’s theme is hot pot!!

Parrons subscribed in happy mail tiers will receive:

  • teacup tier: instant hot pot vinyl sticker
  • tea set tier: vinyl sticker & journaling sticker sheet

Vinyl stickers and sheets are already in production, so I am hoping to get these out to you in the next couple of weeks!

Here is a photo of my inspiration and hot pot from New Year’s Eve (o:

I would love to learn about any New Year traditions you have if you have any!

Later this week, I plan to have a Patreon post timeline up, so please look forward to that! 🥰

Glad you had a lovely break. 💖 I'm loving this hot pot theme and it's sooo cute! Now I'm craving it! 😊

omg the hotpot theme is adorable and SO timely because we've been eating so much of it since the holidays; we always end up buying too many ingredients for the amount of people eating with us, so we just finished up the last of the mushrooms and tofu this past week :') can't wait to receive the stickers! stay warm, kara! :D

Jolyn

Happy to hear you're back again Kara! Missed you and totally understand that you needed a break. Sending good vibes to you in achieving your goals this year! My family also had hot pot on New Year! My favorites things to put in the spicy broth is lotus root, fish tofu, taro, and veggies. I see you have baked fish cakes, where do you get yours from? I've been trying to find them, but there no where to be found in my local Asian market D:

karakanani

ahhh yay! i am so happy this theme could come at the best time <3 just the other day we used up the last of our ingredients, so i know what you mean with having too many ingredients heh. super excited to get these stickers to you so you can have hot pot-themed journal spreads ((o:

karakanani

thank you so much for the warm and kind wishes, jolyn <3 i have missed sharing my art, even if it's a small doodle. can't wait to share what goals i have in mind art-wise for the year! and ooooh your hot pot sounds yummy, i love fish tofu in ours too! the baked fish cakes were bought from hmart! not sure if you have one around you, but usually the korean markets have them and you can select from a variety of fish cakes/balls/rolls with a pair of tongs. the chikuwa fish cake was bought at a japanese market called tokyo central (but i had to drive about a half an hour from home since we don't have japanese markets local to us) hope this helps and you can find the baked fish cakes!!
