Nope it's Dutch and way older than Hello Kitty + they sewed Sanrio last year for copying Miffy and they won!!
But I still love HK more :P

But almost ALL Dutch babys wear Nijntje/Miffy stuff (nijntje is a dutch babytalk way to say konijn, wich means bunny)
The creator still lives too + this year is the 5th anniversary of the Miffy museum =D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Bruna =D

But Japanese ARE the biggest Miffy fans + buyers EVERR

What a gorgeous piece of furniture your desk is; and I adore how you've displayed your le petit prince books.

thank you for the kind compliments <3 i like to think that glancing up at le petit prince in the midst of slogging through academia makes life a bit more bearable. it's such a heartwarming story.

D'aww, Singapore is so far away, otherwise I would've offered you a cute penguin keychain/phone charm that I made.

Gorgeous room, especially love the writing desk (wow!)
And The Little Prince is such a sweet story <3 no surprises there. :D

awwww thank you for the kind thoughts anyway! it's awfully warm and humid all year round here but you should come visit some time in the future :) would love to see the penguin charms you've made! i have a few boxes of penguin accessories but haven't put up shelves and hooks to display them yet.

le petit prince is awesome! i want to keep reading it and never forget to be a child inside.

I love your bookshelf!

thank you! they're actually two short ledges meant for candles, but i love how simple they are and used them as book shelves; doesn't steal attention away from the display :)

I really like you're style and I'm totally envious of your writing desk!

thank you for the compliments :) would love to put up another post once i'm done doing up my entire room! it's kinda schizo right now with bright happy colours on one side and vintage victorian furniture on the other.
