the babo spirit, by moki

inspired by one of my uglydolls, babo. i got babo a few years ago while i was still in school. i saw it in the store window and was immediately drawn to it. i thought, what a great concept!

babo is described as follows:
Babo will protect you. Having a bad day? Someone giving you a hard time? Babo’s got your back. What Babo lacks in mind power, he makes up for in love. He’s everybody’s best friend. He will stick with you to the end and when something scary happens, he will send you a nice greeting card from wherever it is he runs away to. A very curious, mischievous creature, Babo may need some guidance and parenting, so make sure to bring him with you to as many places as possible. Leaving him at home is fine, but please put all cookies and money on the highest shelf.

to me, babo is not “real” but “the babo spirit” is very real - seeking adventure with loved ones, enjoying snacks, pure heart, and good fun. innocently always wanting to be a part of it too~

finally! my little domain….
more to tweak but that’s the fun part, right? ^^

here, you will likely find a plethora of packaging design, print, pattern, graphic design, and all around art and music inspired details. they say i have an artistic temperament and i am happy to share it.

my belief is that even the most humble or seemingly puny gifts can be made extra special with the right thought and packaging.

along with all the above, i will try my best to give insight to who i am too~yay.
