DIY Printable Kawaii Rilakkuma Planner for December

Hey guys! This month's calendar I made is with the newest San-X koguma graphic! I'm so glad they included Koguma in all the Christmas stuff!

See the planner video for simple instructions on how I make my own planner.

Here you go! (with and without dates)

*ﾟ✲*Hello Kitty Kawaii Christmas Giveaway! *ﾟ✲*

To thank you guys, and also because so many of you love these... I'm doing another Kawaii Christmas Giveaway! I chose a lot of stationery items (Hello Kitty ones) because you guys tend to like that a lot.

 

Just make sure you are subscribed to my YouTube channel and comment on the video what types of videos you would like to see for my Kawaii Christmas series this year. Last year I did DIYs, baking, hauls and lots of other fun things.

Here are some more pics of the giveaway items.

 

Christmas Rilakkuma Series: My Collection 2012, 2013, 2014

I hope you guys have entered my Kawaii Christmas Giveaway (with tons of Hello Kitty Christmas loot in it), if you haven't you can enter here. I am also posting cute kawaii finds at everyday stores on my tumblr, so follow me there if you are interested.

As a part of my Kawaii Christmas series, I did a video of my Christmas Rilakkuma plush collection. I currently have 2012, 2013 and 2014 series. Here is a great website if you are looking for more photos of all the Christmas series.

2012 Christmas Rilakkuma Plush (Reindeer Rilakkuma) 

This set is really cute because each plush has different embellishments between each of the bears + chicken : P ! Korilakkuma has a strawberry, Rilakkuma has a pancake stack and Kiiroitori has a stocking. (I think they should have put money for him :3)

2013 Christmas Rilakkuma Plush (Santa or Chimney Rilakkuma)サンタ

This set is great because the chimney lets them stand up easily on their own and really great for Christmas decor. They also can completely separate from the chimney if you would rather lay them someplace like your bed. Each of them is the same--they all carry little Santa bags that says "Marry Xmas" and have a really cute Santa costume.

2014 Christmas Rilakkuma Plush

This set has really cute outfits for all of them. It's a red plaid outfit with all of them wearing a santa style hat. I love how each of them is unique. Rilakkuma has a simple cape and holds a kuma wreath, Korilakkuma has a beautiful pompom scarf and big present (my personal fav) and Kiiroitori holds a snowman. And they also have holly embellishments. I think they were really creative with this set!!

You can find many of these plush on Amazon and eBay and Mira plush. Feel free to contact me if you are worried about fakes. I haven't seen any fakes for these series specifically but there are fake Santa ones. There also are lots of Fansclub Rilakkuma that may appear fake at first but are simply for prize toys so they are a bit more cheaply made.

Here is a photo of the Rilakkuma series from this Christmas season.

Rilakkuma Christmas Advent Calendar! 2014

サンエックスネットショプ：クリスマスアドベントカレンダーぬいぐるみ

So I just found out that the San X net shop is taking orders from 8/8-9/7 for the Rilakkuma Advent Calendar! It does seem a bit surprising for these things to take orders so far from Christmas! But, it will be released mid November, just in time for Christmas. Click here to go to the San X website!!

It comes with:

1. Advent Calendar tapestry 630-550mm (embroidered, made of cotton)

It is made of tiny pouches you can move the little mascots around as Christmas nears!

2. Christmas tree tapestry (embroidered, made of cotton)

3. Mascots (Quantity: 24, made of cotton)

These you can put in the pockets and hang on the tree!

4. Ball-chain pouch (it seems it can hold some of the mascots)

How to use it:When you start, the whole calendar is filled with mascots. Everyday until Christmas you take out one and put it on the tree. When Christmas comes, the tree is filled!!! So adorable!!

Not to mention, you can also use the mascots as keychains for purses! Or you can hang on your own tree and make your own Rilakkuma tree! *This is actually what I did last christmas with cute keychains I have...take a look here*

The set is adorable, but with a tall price tag--18,000 YEN!!!! ええ－?! That's about $180..and guessing if us silly foreigners can even get a hold of it, the price will go up for people reselling it out of Japan..

UPDATED 8/18:Just found a place on TaoBao that you can preorder the Rilakkuma Christmas Advent Calendar. Miraplush is also doing preorders, but it is pretty expensive!!

These are the bears I got last Christmas! I also got the Reindeer version too~~ So excited to celebrate Christmas with Rilakkuma!
