Saturday Shout Outs: Marienne Creations & G.A.T.U.M.I

Are you a fan of anime and all things kawaii?? Then you need to check out these two jewelry shops! They are insanely adorable!

First up is...

Marienne Creations specializes in handmade clay creations. She has lots of cute little anime characters currently for sale including Sailor Moon, Princess Mononokee, and Ariel (The Little Mermaid). Each one is very detailed and crafted with love. I really just love them all. When I found her shop a few months back it took me awhile to decide on something, but I ended up choosing this fabulous Rainbow Brite necklace. I chose the beads and the chain and I just love what she did with them. The final product was nothing but fabulous!

I was amazed by the amount of detail on this piece too! It's hard to tell from the photo, but her hair is marked into little individual strands and each and every little tiny piece is put together with finesse. It's simply amazing work! I can't wait to get another one of her beautiful creations. The trouble is deciding which one to get next! ;)

Next up is...

I have been a secret admirer of G.A.T.U.M.I for a long time now. As you know, I'm a huge fan of kawaii and lolita fashion so it's no wonder why I love this shop so much. I'll admit I've been oogling it for awhile, but never broke down and bought anything until just recently. Why you ask? Well, I do make my own jewelry you know! But seriously, our styles are very similar so I'll admit I kept saying "no" because I try to not spend all my $$ 24/7. That doesn't really work though... notice the keyword "try" (haha)

I must say I am super jealous of all the cute little things they find to play with. G.A.T.U.M.I is filled with the cutest anime themed items I have ever seen. From the pretty beads to the characters themselves there isn't anything unlikable in this entire shop. And they have A LOT of items posted!

I simply HAD to have this Chobits necklace...

 

Isn't it gorgeous?? I love everything about it. And the tiny jewels, pearls and  flowers on the cameo itself are darling! I just can't get enough of it honestly. I've worn it for almost a week straight now. ;)

I also got this super cute Sailor Moon necklace. I just couldn't help myself!

I really just love all things Sailor Moon. So it kind of HAD to happen. I really want to get more! There are just so many cute things here and Andie was a pleasure to do business with. He made the Chobits necklace just for me and kept me updated every step of the way. Isn't that sweet?

That's it for today folks! Hope you check out these shops and show them some love.
