We’ve talked about doing some kind of kawaii awards for years, and I thought we should finally just do it. We have lots of big plans for this, but for this year let’s keep it small and easy.
VOTING IS NOW CLOSED. The winners will be announced in a week or two.
Just CLICK HERE TO VOTE for your favourite character, brand, shop, website, maker, blog, YouTube channel, event and person! You only get to vote once in each category so have a good think first.
GIVEAWAY
We’ll send a prize to two random voters as well to thank you all for being awesome readers and commenters this year. Just leave a comment below including the following:
1. I VOTED! (please do actually vote – we want your votes!)
2. What was your favourite kawaii item you bought or were gifted in 2014?
We’ll pick two winners and send them a prize pack including SCK swag and something cute from the sales. UPDATE: One prize pack includes a big 16cm pink Alpacasso plush and the other includes a small Alpacasso keyring plush.
Voting and giveaway ends in January – we’ll post a reminder and final closing date when we’re back in the New Year. Have fun!
