Making mini Dakimakura's

Kaylyn Hatfield

Last summer we went the route of creating something we've been wanting to make for a LONG time.... Mini Dakimakura! 

Dakimakura is the Japanese name for body pillows with a character printed on them. Usually in a pose like they are laying down next to you. Since we got a sublimation printer and heat press in early 2024 we made a few designs to test the waters. I made different foods in states of "undress" and Moros made a Garfield character. They're fun and hand sized (and barbie sized!). This will probly be how we test our full size dakimakura designs in the future. Besides who doesn't love mini things.
