Designer and PhD student Erica Walker designs for those who appreciate things that are Super Cute. We’re all over Super Cute and adore her dessert erasers–irresistable, yet diet friendly.
How’d she make them? She gave us her recipe:
1 part obsession with erasers since age 4.
1 part unsuccessful attempt to create a Junk Food Barbie, her expanding/contracting waist, and her many, many accessories.
1 part Spoonbridge and Cherry sculpture by Claes Oldenburg.
Why else do we heart Erica? She eats potato chips with chopsticks to avoid having greasy fingers.

Says designer Alessandra Lopez-Kiely of the inspiration behind the doll, "We kicked, whined and screamed [about] the crazy festivals/lectures/exhibits my mother dragged us to as kids. But now we’re blessed with a very rich appreciation for many different cultures." Her brother Kiko and her both love ninja movies (and even the really old Jackie Chan movies).
Fun fact about Alessandra? She was born the year of the monkey, which explains her love of the silly. She loves creating products that make people (especially adults) giggle!
Thanks, Julie, for the tip!

Designer Betsi Goutal is tickled by how cute and cheerful the bunnies are on her Bunny Jewel ring.
So, go on, add a bit of cheer to your day. Pair the Bunny Jewel ring with a cute print tee and jeans for a dressed down look, or a big fluffy skirt, romantic top, and colorful necklaces for a fairy princess look.
Bet you didn’t know: When Betsi was very young, Mother Nature blessed her with rainbows in the sky over her street for two or three birthdays in a row. When her next birthday rolled around rainbow-free, she was so disappointed that she’s not sure she’s ever recovered.
$5 each at Zlanarama.
