A new addition to the Flatface family! http://www.pepeandfriends.com/blog/2008/08/introducing-buttercup-a-new-addition-to-the-flatface-family/ http://www.pepeandfriends.com/blog/2008/08/introducing-buttercup-a-new-addition-to-the-flatface-family/#comments Wed, 20 Aug 2008 11:18:49 +0000 Camila Prada http://www.pepeandfriends.com/blog/?p=26

We went out on a summer stroll with Buttercup and got to know her a little better. See what happened below…

Tree stumps make great seats for outdoor chillin. But beware of territorial trolls and splinters.

 

Yellow and mellow. Just relaxing in the sun. 

 

She’s so damn cute and she knows it.

 

We were trying not look, but she has a very attractive 22 carat gold target on her behind. Buttercup exudes effortless bling, in all the right places.

 

Buttercup recommends smelling flowers at least once a day. Especially pink ones.

 

Buttercup with buttercups. She thought this was a cheesy shot. She’s just humoring me. 

 

The Flatfaces have told us before that flying takes quite a lot of effort. We get the feeling that Buttercup rarely uses those baby blue wings. Cause she’s kinda lazy.

Chek out the rest of the gang here!

Our friend Jethro Macey just sent us a picture of Bonnie and Clyde - our trusty oil and vinegar decanters - looking pretty and sitting on his kitchen counter.

London’s Selfridges store dazzled the world recently with the announcement of the Wonder Room. The Wonder Room is actually a 19,000 square-foot space that is dedicated to luxury items, fine jewelry, wine and other precious gifts from top brands like Hermes and Bulgari, mixed with quirky but always sumptuous work from new names on the design scene. Ahem! That means us! We are delighted that our posh but friendly little gang of Flatface figurines are now strutting their stuff in the prestigious Oxford Street shop.

We were are so chuffed about this picture. Pepe and Friends in all their glory mixed in with other happy and beautiful things. We didn’t even know we were in this article, a really nice person sent it to us in the post. Those people at the Observer really captured the Vinila spirit with this one.

These girls dressed up as fairies and bumble bees for a night on the town. No, it wasn’t Halloween or anything. They looked so cute it made us smile.
