Valentine's Day with Hello Kitty

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. What better way to celebrate that day of sweetness by having sweet Hello Kitty with you?

Sanrio has released two heart-shaped pillows with Hello Kitty's face as its design, just in time for Valentine's Day. These are made of polyester, and are big enough to be huggable - you can even pour your heart out to her as you squeeze the pillow tight!

Happy New Year!

All of us here on SanrioTown wish all of you a very happy new year! We hope you and your family have a joyful, prosperous, and blessed one.

Let us all welcome 2008 together!

SanrioTown Dream Srudio Video of the Week!

We're right smack in between Christmas and New Year, so what better way to celebrate this season by featuring a video highlighting the holidays- but with a Sanrio twist?

"Merry Christmas Hello Kitty", made by filipinogirl, is a collection of holiday pictures featuring Hello Kitty, and occasionally joined by her twin sister Mimmy, Dear Daniel, and her other friends. There is even a mini-story in the video, what with the captions added by the maker of the video. Also, if you pay attention to the slides, you'll be able to catch a few surprises that would make you smile.:D

Merry Christmas!

All of us here on SanrioTown wish all of you a very Merry Christmas! May all of you and your loved ones have a very special holiday.

SanrioTown Dream Studio Video of the Week!

It's only five days until Christmas! Are you getting excited? We are!

During Christmas, we may ask for certain things that we would want to receive as our gifts. These usually come in the form of items: toys, gadgets, books, etc. Hajnee, however, has a different request and she expressed it in a very unique fashion: though a Dream Studio video!

"All I Want for Christmas" was made by the video creator as though she was writing to Santa Claus. While she says she doesn't want that much, at least nothing that could be gift-wrapped, she has one request, and she hopes that this will be granted come Christmas day.

You can find out what her wish is by going to http://video.sanriotown.com/video/76d9be35542c283b. It's a very cute slideshow that most of us can probably relate to, whether we admit to it or not.:D

SanrioTown Dream Studio Video of the Week!

Special occasions should be celebrated, and this week's featured video is putting one special event on the spotlight.

Happy Graduation shows fun pictures of the graduation of a class, complete with the cap-tossing and jumping. It's really a fun video. For those who have already experienced the thrill of graduation, it makes you reminisce the bittersweet memories of that special day when you said goodbye to your alma mater. For those who haven't, it's something that you can expect: an event that's both fun because of the friends that you have, but also sad because you'll be bidding them and your school farewell.

Sanrio Stockings

The holiday fever is definitely picking up, and our featured items this week, like from last, certainly shows that.

Sanrio Japan has released these Christmas stockings featuring Hello Kitty, My Melody, Cinnamoroll and the Shinkansen.

There are two kinds to choose from: the ones made to look like hard boots, which have two sets of designs.

They also have the traditional stockings usually hung over the fireplace or doors as decorations (or for Santa Claus to drop his present for you if you've been good the whole year :D).

Hello Kitty Snowman Plush

"Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh..."

Since we're starting to hear this and similar songs wherever we go, it just means we're getting close to Christmas! It's a little more than a month before we reach the holiday season, and Sanrio's already feeling festive. Proof is that they released a plush Hello Kitty Snowman, white in the front and pink at the back. It also has a tiny Hello Kitty mascot in the back pocket you can remove to carry along in your bag or mobile phone. Now, people who live in tropical countries can still enjoy the wonders of snow in a cute and cuddly package.

This cute plush is currently priced at 3,675 Yen in Sanrio Japan. You may visit their site for more information.

SanrioTown Blog of the Week!

Boo! A lot of people at Sanrio Town have Halloween fever, and it spilled over on some of the blogs! From greetings to graphics to jokes, they're getting into it, and this week's featured online journal is no exception.

Hello Peanut *^^*, owned and maintained by od3sa, greets everyone a Happy Halloween with a homemade (?) "kitty o' lantern" to "guide those that are lost." We don't really know if that's going to be the case, but the carved pumpkin sure is cute!

She's got a variety of fun entries aside from her Halloween post. According to her, she's got "Project: Hello Kitty" going on, and she's now pretty busy "kittifying" not only her blog, but her life too, even defending the little white cat from her friends.
