We welcome submissions from crafty types, cute shop owners and kawaii fans.

Guidelines

Everyone has a different concept of ‘cute’  – we’re looking for that extra-special level of cuteness that the Japanese excel at. Take some time to read the blog and see what we feature.

In general, everything submitted should be available for sale, somewhere. It doesn’t need to be handmade and you can self-promote your business, but it’s just cruel to show us cute things we can’t buy. Have a heart!

We also accept submissions about cute events, exhibitions, sales and offers but remember we usually work a week or two ahead so give us plenty notice!

Email

You can email us direct with your submissions. Just check out the About page, choose which of us is most suitable and email away. We’d prefer it if you sent links rather than attaching photos and don’t email both of us at the same time – we’re individuals, you know. We much prefer a personal email to a mass mail, and please don’t subscribe us to mailing lists without our permission – we’ll either unsubscribe or report you as spam.

Things To Note

• We read all your emails but we don’t always have time to reply to every email, whether or not we feature you.
• If we don’t feature you, you’re quite welcome to email us again when you have a new products.
• You don’t need to send us lots of info or pictures – a link to your shop and a little bit about what makes you special is all we need.
• For shop features, you need to have around 10 cute items for sale. If you have less items, we usually keep you in mind for themed posts (eg, bunnies or snowmen or cupcakes) but it can take a while for us to find enough matching products.

Flickr Group

If you’re a member of Flickr, you can add your photos to our Super Cute Kawaii group. We keep an eye on the pool and sometimes pick out stuff to feature on the blog. You can only submit one photo per day and obviously, not all photos will be featured.

Facebook and Twitter

While we do have accounts on Facebook and Twitter, we’d ask that you don’t submit your site using these services. It’s much easier for us to keep track of things if we have an email to refer to.

Want to be a Super Cute Kawaii Guest Picker?

Monsieur Le Bun is always looking for new friends to show us their favourite cute things. If you think you would make a great guest picker then email him at lebun AT supercutekawaii.com with a link to your blog or other online writing.

Contests and Sponsored Posts

We don’t accept money or other bribes (however cute!) in return for a feature but if you’d like to sponsor a contest, provide a special offer code or supply items for review, we’d be happy to consider it. Of course, we will only feature shops that will be of interest to our readers.

Advertising

We have advertising spots available for kawaii shops and sites – see our advertising page for more details and rates. Advertisers are featured regularly in our Super Cute Sponsor slot on Saturdays.
