這個零錢包是我第一次嘗試加上印花圖案，因為咖啡色可水洗牛皮紙對老人家來說太素了，又要找個阿嬤會喜歡的圖案，所以，剛好用這刻章的練習圖案來試試囉！ 做出來之後的成品還蠻好看的耶！　我喜歡～

用久了之後，不管甚材質的短夾都會變髒、變舊、變皺，跟皮革不一樣的是，這款可以水洗的紙製短夾，變髒可以洗乾淨，變皺可以整燙，就算不整燙，水洗後自然風乾，也會變平整很多喔！

以下是我們的測試步驟：

1.每天放在牛仔褲後口袋使用10個月後的舊舊紙短夾

2.丟進去洗衣機洗(純測試)

3.自然風乾(沒有整燙)

4.跟新短夾對照的平整度

實驗結果：
1.使用10個月後的樣子與全新短夾對照(圖一)
優點：完全沒有起毛球，沒有破裂情況，也沒有變形或退色，也沒有斷線或脫線。
缺點：變皺、變舊、出現卡片痕跡。

2.丟進洗衣機經過正常洗衣程序撈出來後，完全沒有破損，跟清洗前的舊舊樣子對照圖(圖二)，再跟全新的短夾對照樣子(圖三)，卡片痕跡消失，幾乎跟新的一樣平整。

結論：基本上，這款紙短夾丟進去洗衣機是沒問題的！ 這塊可水洗牛皮紙是真的可以丟洗衣機清洗，但是因為短夾有車縫結構的問題，我們目前還在測試可以丟進去洗衣機洗幾次，原則上還是建議泡水清洗。 所以，這次的測試結果非常令人滿意！ 這真的是個很優的短夾～

You’ll never know how good something is until you test it. Thus, today we will test:

1. How a Washable Kraft Paper Wallet will look after 10 months in the back pocket of a man’s jeans.

2. Tossing this ultra-thin, ultra-minimalist Washable Kraft Paper Wallet into the washing machine!

No matter what material something is made out of, after a long period of use, it’s bound to get dirty, look old, and become wrinkled. Never fear, however, as this Washable Kraft Paper Wallet is different. If it gets dirty, it can be washed; if it gets wrinkly, it can be ironed. Just let it air-dry after a good wash and notice its again-youthful appearance.

Below is how we tested our Washable Kraft Paper Wallet:

1. We used our wallet daily for a period of 10 months – it always rode in the back pocket of a pair of jeans.

2. Into the washing machine it went (regular wash cycle)!

3. Let air dry; no ironing or clothes dryer.

4. Finally, we took a picture of our used-and-washed wallet together with a brand-new wallet.

The outcomes are as follows:

1. Unwashed 10-month-old Washable Kraft Paper Wallet vs. brand new (photo 1).

Pros: Absolutely no lint balls or fuzzing. No rips or tears. No change in color and no thread breakage.

Cons: A little wrinkly, a little older-looking, and you could see the imprints of where cards were kept.

2. 10-month-old Washable Kraft Paper Wallet, before and after wash in washing machine (photo 2) – absolutely no damage! Again, we photographed a brand-new wallet with a washed, 10-month-old wallet (photo 3); the imprint of the card is gone, and it almost seems like it’s new again. Almost!

Basically, there is no problem at all sending this Washable Kraft Paper Wallet for a little wash in your machine. Many people do like the added character that a well-used wallet takes on… but, at least you have options with this! Washable Kraft Paper itself suffers none from being washed in a washing machine, but since the wallet is held together by thread, we’re still in the process of testing how many times a complete wallet can stand up to machine washes. At the moment, we still recommend that you merely soak your Washable Kraft Paper Wallet in water and then wash it gently by hand. In any case, we are totally satisfied with the results of our little test. This wallet really is awesome!

目前正在測試中，今天總算在多次的修改之後有比較成形了，所以就拿白色來試試看，出來的效果很好，漂亮有質感，

最後確定好版型，也測試沒問題的話就可以上架囉！

會特別提到用姓名縮寫是因為，Shawn 說在歐美國家，如果有需要印字的話，大家都是印縮寫，有質感又大方，

我也發現把自己的全名印上去，即使是英文，也會很像學生的姓名貼，所以，最後決定採用英文縮寫鋼印字。

英文字母鋼印字

使用材質: 德國進口鋼印

字母尺寸：3 mm (1/8”)

這款鋼印字母的客製化印字除了強調個人專屬，也同時呈現出高質感，

目前我們提供的印字方式，與歐美國家相同，以姓名的首字縮寫，

2～3個英文字母，ex, Nana Liu= NL，先印製後再製作。

目前是加購款，在Pinkoi 的紙樣。YANG設計館已上架！

我們訂的白色可水洗牛皮紙終於收到啦！ 很漂亮，接下來會開始測試，並套用到新版型款式中，應該很快就會有新設計品上架了！

最近我慢慢發覺 tumblr 的微型網誌發文型態比較適合我! 也很符合我的現況，所以慢慢會把網誌更新發文以tumblr 為先，如果你正好經過、路過，有興趣看看我最近在忙什麼、瘋什麼…..歡迎移駕到我的 tumblr: sidonieyang.tumblr.com

我們也有Facebook粉絲專頁，紙樣。YANG 專頁 歡迎喜愛我的手作設計品的你，來按讚支持一下，謝謝!

慢慢試、慢慢摸索， 我在ETSY的店空了三個月，最後終於在五月份才真正有成品可以放上去賣，就這樣慢慢越做越順手，現在我已經可以把腦海裡的想法很接近的做出來，一路從零到有，從店名、 logo、產品、簡介、包裝、攝影、問與答以及網站上的互動等等，這一年來的耕耘漸漸有了成果，很巧的今天剛好有第100個人，把我的店加入最愛，也在今天有第28筆銷售交易，這些實實在在每天增加的數字，都是我很在意的數字，加上不少讓我受寵若驚的讚賞與回應，更是我卯足勁往前衝的最大動力，我很感謝所有給我肯定的顧客與好友們，謝謝你們，我會繼續努力朝夢想前進!!

It’s now February 8th in Vancouver and one year ago today, I opened my own shop on Etsy.com. I started from scratch, started out as a novice, but soon went from being unable to express my ideas to being able to put pen to paper and thread to material. This past year, I have experienced many successes and I owe it all to you! I want to thank my customers and my good friends who have encouraged me throughout.

Thank-you so much!

I will continue to pursue my dreams.

不過從一開始2011年五月到現在，我的手作品只有在Etsy.com 賣，商品敘述、名稱、定價等全部都是英文，所以，要全部重新再做一份中文版才能在Pinkoi上架，這些工作足足花了我一個禮拜，好不容易今天終於全部完成了，接下來我希望可以找到合適的實體店面做配合；不小心路過的路人朋友們，歡迎進來逛逛唷!
