BikiniKat Shopping Spree Review at Cafe' Press
If you check out the BikiniKat shopping page it has a link to Cafe' Press. Cafe' Press is a service that makes products for you with anything you want, they help you set up a web catalog and then all of the sudden you're up and running.
You can have a whole line of goods without the risk or the overhead or having to ship it out and package everything yourself. One thing you have to be clear about is that you won't make a lot of money off it. I make $2 for every item that is sold.
I ordered a few items to see what they'd look like and here are my reviews.
The following will be rated by BikiniKat determination marks, VVVVV
VVVVV- LOVE it - Proud to have it on my coffee table and would give it as gifts
VVVV- I totally love it - not Martha Stewart perfect, but I gotta have it
VVV- Guilty pleasure - I want it, but won't tell anyone I have it
VV- generic but utilitarian
V- nice idea but the quality isn't the best
BikiniKat Ate the Mouse...Pad
Mmmm it smells like rubber and works like a charm. The colors are bright and the quality top notch. BikiniKat has floating pink bubbles surrounding her, care of Suzanna of UltraPop web mastress, and I love it. It's great to have BikiniKat reminding me that I'm Smart Sassy Stylish in the morning.
I'll give it VVVVV determination marks.
Super Cool Fu Fu Cafe People Coffee Mug
This is as cool as Pink Pank Ponk Penk Punk. Classic white mug, cherry red and bubble gum pink. I'm drinking from it right now, I love it! I'll give it VVVVV determination marks.
"It's too early for this" Travel Mug
It's a steel travel mug that will fit in your car cup holder. It looks so cool. It has the same art as the coffee mug, because it's silver the white areas are metallic and the color is more translucent than opaque. On my cup there is a line, like a scratch on it, it doesn't bother me, but it would bother Martha Stewart. I love it none the less, I gotta have it I give it VVVV determination marks.
Smart Sassy Stylish Lunch Box
When you see that you can design a metal lunch box you just gotta do it! Talk about the biggest ego trip ever, forget action figures, it's the lunchbox that makes you the talk of the town. This Smart Sassy Stylish box is metallic and has the same translucent qualities as the travel mug. The artwork is printed on a metallic sticker not printed on the box, which is a bummer but the potential to trick this box out with a magic marker and some stickers is very tempting. However if you are a minimalist -minimalist art is my guilty pleasure- this box will fit nicely on your Noguchi coffee table. I give it VVVV determination marks.
Intelligently Smart Ringer T
I ordered an extra large girly shirt and I have to say I am disappointed with this product. The extra large shirt was like a small and the artwork is a scratchy iron-on. For the price I don't like it very much. In fact I am going to take all the shirts off the site until I find the perfect one for you. I give it V determination marks
"Darling Not on the Coffee Table" tile coaster
I ordered these tiles but they were not included in my shipment. I called the number and the folks at Cafe' Press were really nice and friendly and said they'd get on it immediately, that it was their fault and I should receive my coasters in a few days. WOW. I love it. I asked the lady I talked to if I could take a field trip to check out their products and she laughed, she said I could visit their lobby to look at the display case. I give Cafe' Press VVVVV determination marks
Have a great day everyone and happy shopping or starting your own Cafe' Press shoping mall!
Because I like YOU.

my GAWD i'm lucky enough to have a bikinikat fan club coffee mug and traveller mug sitting on my desk right now and the COLORS and OBJECTS THEMSELVES are sending me into a puppy-type turbo frenzy where i run around the back yard in ever-tinier circles that scare the neighbors. oh, was that my outdoors voice?
