Whip Up Your Mobile, Nintendo DS Cases & Barrettes!

Posted on October 24th, 2011 in Promotions & Giveaways

Here’s more ideas of what you can start making for Christmas gifts! Besides decorating cases like how Duygu does it (below pictures), Maria whips up her barrettes/hair pins! They are our other 2 winners of our Cabochon Giveaways. Currently, we are sold-out on our white deco whipped creams. But we still have stocks in other colors, you can check them out here. We will hold our Cabochon Giveaways yearly, so stay tuned for the next year!

Duygu:”I love shopping with Sophie&Toffee because they provide exceptional customer service, value every single customer they have and make shopping so much fun. There is so much to explore, so much to get inspiration from and a whole lot of sweet things to choose from.
Thank you for your great service!

Maria:”I love that you keep such a high variation on your cabochons and seem to always strive towards finding something that fits everyone, both in style and price. It’s also great to see that you don’t stick with one brandname regarding clays and whipped creams since different brands fit different crafts.
Also it’s so easy placing and finishing an order that you have no reason not to do it!

And our second winner is Keisy! She also makes decoden cases, but hers has a particular color theme to each of her cases and has a Gothic touch. Very mysterious yet captivating! Using mostly pearls and rhinestones, she pastes these tiny ones with cabochons, bead by bead to create that beautiful enchanting case.

And this is what she says:”I love Sophie & Toffee because theres such a great selection of stuff to satisfy my creative needs! I look forward to making alot more things and also starting a business with my passion of crafting…thanks for the inspiration!

Contest Giveaway: Snow White Bling Decoden Iphone Case

Posted on May 24th, 2010 in Promotions & Giveaways

It is time for another contest giveaway, and we really think hard for this item for giveaway.

It took us about 2 hours to brain-storm what girls like you and me would like to carry around on our Iphone. Trina and I finally decided that it has to be glam and bling but not too over-whelming like those in the market. I myself love white and so we went ahead with a Snow White Bling Decoden Iphone Case!

Snow White Bling Decoden Iphone Plastic Clear Case

It might look simple but with either an white or black iphone, the contrast and effect can be quite different & pretty:

With a white Iphone

With black iphone

Of course this contest giveaway DOES NOT comes with the Iphone :P

Every details on this iphone case is hand-glued, hand-pasted, hand-designed by myself & Trina. There are rhinestones running along the 2 sides, and on the case itself. And a crystal chain running in S shape down the case.

We really hope you like it!

Now, if you like it and would like to win this item, you can do any of the following to enter:

  1. Leave a comment on this post telling us why would you like to win this item.

Sophie & Toffee turns 1 year old with a Sale!

Wow, time really flies and a year has passed.

I remembered when we first started selling supplies (ToffeeHouse), I was juggling with my day time job and could not wait to come back home to start on either my sewing (Yes, I was sewing a bit back then!) or answering customer’s queries!

When I have the courage to finally quit my day time job to concentrate on our supplies shop, I know I have to stock up on the different designs and start to look for high-quality items supplied by reputable factories.

We started with stocking up every part of space in our house possible. We work till wee hours to get orders shipped on the promised days. We had a faithful motorcycle which we travel on to brave raining days to our post office.

Over the year, because we have many loyal and fun customers (like you!), we told ourselves that all the late nights and long hours are worth it! It was totally awesome to have customers who turned friends, to leave us appreciative feed backs that felt like a pat on our shoulder. Friends who just love chatting with us and sharing with us their creativity.

Today, because of all the love and support shown to us, we managed to have a cabochon factory, small transport car for delivery, a new website for local customers with customizable purchases, a small humble office to better manage logistics inventory and to facilitate work flow.

S&T Office

These could not have happened if not for you.

To express our deep gratitude, we will be having a 18% discount sale for all purchases made on our new website and we will also include a cabochon freebies pack for every purchase! This promotion starts today 5 Apr, will last for 8 days and ends on 12 Apr – promotional code happy1year. Also, we have 4 sets of Re-Ment Magnets to give away! Find out more on our web shop.

Freebies Pack

Re-Ment Magnets

Over the year, we have met with a lot of steep competitions from other sellers and had some of the nastiest setbacks, but we are very grateful for those who had stayed with us. Please do not hesitate to drop us a mail to let us know how we can improve, to be the best we can for you.

THANK YOU!

♥ Ayu & Brandon
