Speaking of Sparkle Bee, it seems this etagere of Hello Kitty goodies are their products!  I found this tower of Hello Kitty treasures in Target!

Let’s start from the top with today’s featured product, a lighted make-up mirror!

You like it? Since I am not much of a make-up person and I am too vain to want to see my pores up close, I am going to have to pass on this one. Cute as it is, if my face ain’t cute here, I’m not buying it! Hahaha!

As you can see, this is a pretty good deal though! $15.99 for a lighted mirror, that beats the small pocket magnified mirrors I see retailing for $10 at Bed, Bath & Beyond!

Another Hello Kitty find from Costco! I think this was less than $30 too!

Not too high tech this one no? It still has a cassette player and recorder! I mean, who still uses cassette tapes these days? Hehehe!

This Hello Kitty boombox is a licensed product of Sparkle Bee, “Sanrio’s largest licensee in the world!”. To find out more about the range of Sanrio items they make, click here! There’s a world of Hello Kitty goodies to uncover there!

Now these I found in Costco! A gumball machine with water dispenser! Yeah, it’s a set! You get both for about $30 only!

Here’s the gumball machine:

Now, here’s the mini water dispenser - enough for 8 glasses of water:

At least you know you’ve reached your ideal daily water intake when this runs out right?

It’s a cute gift for any girl aged 5 to 45 I think! I find it funny though that these two were packaged together. Are you encouraged to drink water after chewing gum? Your thoughts please!

Here’s another camera! I think this one is cheaper than the last one I showed you!

I am not sure of how big the megapixels are for this one, but it has 2x digital zoom.

Comes with changing face plates and preview screen too! Photo Booth photo editing software included. Now I don’t know why they have to say it comes with flash, shouldn’t that be a standard feature by now? Heehee!

For about $50, you can have this 5.1 megapixel Hello Kitty digital camera complete with two changing face plates (so when you get bored, you can easily change the face plates and you’ve got a whole new camera! Sort of!) and a preview screen. Also included is a Snap ‘N Share photo editing software.

Works with Windows XP or Vista, Mac OS x 10.4.6 or greater and runs on 3 AAA batteries. Get this from Target!

If you are a die-hard Hello Kitty fan, I strongly suggest that you save all your coins in this Hello Kitty Coin Bank!

Why? Because for this week, I have lots of Hello Kitty goodies to show you that you might not be able to resist buying!

While waiting for this Kitty Bank to fill up, it might interest you to know that you can paint this coin bank too! Because this is a Paint Your Own Hello Kitty Coin Bank! As the packaging goes, with this, “You Save Your Money In Style!” and you can paint it just the way you like it. So yeah, style Hello Kitty in the clothing and colors you’ve always wanted her to wear!

This box includes a ceramic coin bank, a paint set, a paint brush and the instructions. About $9.99 from Target! For ages 4 and up.

Another great find from Costco! The perfect gift for the fledgling fashion designer! A Project Runway Fashion Design Projector Kit which allows a budding designer to sketch and render the afternoon away.

Use this design tool to sketch a collection of outfits for the little one’s portfolio. One can never be too young to start practicing and building a portfolio right? This set includes the ff: Projector…

6 viewing wheels with fashion images…

Color figure slides, Sketch pad, set of 3.5″ Colored pencils, Instruction sheet.

So, how do all these work together? Well this is how the projector looks like in principle:

There are pattern slides in the projector to help create inspired looks. You can then have your little designer choose the colors, the embellishments, etc. Of course, because all fashion houses earn a ton from accessories, there are provisions to design handbags and shoes as well!

Cool huh?! I would so love this if I got something like this for my birthday or for Christmas. Haha! This was $28.99 last Christmas, but is now just $20 at Amazon! For ages 8 and above.

 I guess it’s a guy thing. Dear Hubby loves going to Costco (as reference, so does my friend Paz’s hubby). For a time, it was something DH wanted to do every weekend, even if we didn’t have any reason to go there. I guess it’s those tool sets and big macho sizes that appeal to him. Then again, he enjoys browsing through the books section…

We’ve realized though that books are still way cheaper over at Amazon. But still, it’s always fun to browse. In fact, I found some Hello Kitty books while we were there. Check these out:

A 400 page Hello Kitty coloring and activity book for a whopping $4.59! That’s about $0.11 cents a page for a couple minutes of coloring fun or solving puzzles and mazes or playing games! Not bad.

For $6.99, you can bring home a Hello Kitty story book  with “stories of fun and friends.” It says it includes “7 books for early readers” although honestly, this was the only Hello Kitty story book around. Maybe it really meant 7 stories in this book?

Quite confusing no? But for a hardbound Hello Kitty book, still a steal! Good job Costco!

Oooohhh! Look at what I found while trolling through my Sanriotown Album! Another kikay set from Hello Kitty! Christmas themed too! Wah! Oh well, my sister uses the Vanilla Bean Noel scent from Bath & Body Works year round any way. So what if you want to smell like Sugar Plum and Candy Canes the entire 12 months. Nothing wrong with that right?

Anyway, the packaging isn’t overtly Christmas Holiday. It’s so cute actually, a transparent bag with Hello Kitty’s face and that puffy pink ribbon. It works any time of the year! No wonder I didn’t think of this as part of my Hello Kitty Christmas themed posts!
