The Cute Book

Cute and Easy-to-Make Felt Mascot




Aranzi Aronzo is a D.I.Y. crafts company aesthetically similar to Sanrio (Hello Kitty), with stores all over Japan and a few overseas, earning several millions off sales of their crafts materials and craft books. Hugely popular with Japanese women young and old (as well as a dedicated niche of American crafters), A/A now finally makes its American debut.

The world of craftsters is full of things Japanese Cute - kawaii, and the look created by Aranzi Aronzo is familiar to many but not until now has a single one of the hundreds of bootleg American copies they've sold been in English. Finally these priceless books of mascots, accessories, clothing and well, just about everything, come in ready-to-read English!

About the author

Aranzi Aronzo

ARANZI ARONZO claim variously to be a Mexican-Japanese man and Norweigian Vietnamese-Indian man, working at securities firms and playing the tamborine full-time. All we really know about them however, is that they are actually two sisters who create mischief and fun through high-cute (as in “high art”) crafts.
