How Do I Get a ButterCream Band?


Get your hot, sugary, delicious ButterCream Bands at the Young Designer's Market, or get one by emailing us with your details and we'll mail it to you.

If you live in the contiguous United States, we have access to this thing called the Pony Express-- err US postal service. There, we can go and send you an official ButterCream Band. 
Yes, there will be a small charge for shipping and handling. We will mail it to you on your terms. 

Just email us and we'll work out that sticky little situation of the money. We'll make it work!

TeaTime in Osaka



Green or Matcha? Teatime in Osaka is delightful with a thin band and touch of whimsy and glam. Twenty Nine dollars, which is like 2,683 yen. Don't be afraid-- I think that's the same price I paid for a hotdog in Tokyo back in '93. Adjust that for inflation, and you have a steal (and the color is steel! Lovely!).

Super Sunshine Sparkle Fabulous



Say it like this: Orange Mocha Frappaccinos! Jitterbug.
Teehee hee It's super excellent easy-to-wear sparkly fun for everyday. Super special, as always. Made by hand, with love in our hearts.
Twenty Nine Big Ones. It could be the most beautiful thing you've ever seen under $30.

Tokyo Blue


Nothing sad about it. One-of-a-kind, assembled by hand in the U. S of A. Made with love, happiness, sunshine and sweetness. The best use of thirty five dollars, honeys. That's like 2 glasses of champagne.

Springtime in Kyoto



Thirty Three Dollars. Hollllllah!

Oriental Secretary!

Back when we were starting out B(C)B,  one member of the gang wanted to call it Oriental secretary. Well, thanks to some secret angels, we were blessed with some wonderful and decadent pieces of brocades from the Orient, so we will be a doing a new Spring series called Oriental Secretary. They are headbands made from pieces of vintage kimonos, old saris, obi belts and precious trimmings. Assemblage, cool and unique. 

That's What it's All About (clap, clap) *sung to the tune of the Hokey Pokey.

Glamour, Glitter, Fashion and ...Fame?

Thank you so much to everyone who came out for the first day of ButterCream Bands at the young designer's market on Mulberry Street! (Mulberry St. between Prince and Houston in the lovely NoHo). 

We had our first sale today to a super cutie who looked excellent in the headbands. She genuinely liked them, and it was a pleasure meeting her! All in all, it was an excellent day in terms of exposing our bands to new people and we are all very excited to continue all. 

To all our friends who came out to support us: THANK YOU! And thank you ever more to people who actually bought our bands. BTW you know we are in cahoots with the fabulous and talented Miss Riddhika Jesrani, right? When you talk about being unique and having an eye--- let us tell you-- this girl is not afraid of a bold bead (or 13!). Her stuff was well-received and it was such a fun fun fun day. Personally, sales can drain a person, but we had such great clientele and such great company that it made it all worth while. It was a fun and enterprising way to hang out with friends and we can't really thank everyone who stopped by enough! Merci Beaucoup. 

Please stop by on Sunday, February 8th from 11-7pm as well. We are located on the extreme left corridor when you enter the building. Just listen for the laughter :) And follow the cuteness and glamour.
