Join the Ring

The Kawaii Shop Hop is a web ring — a few dozen small kawaii labels, each linking to the next, the way the web worked before anyone was ranking it. It's read by a person, not a form robot, so tell us a little about what you make.

Shop name Where does it live? A website if you have one. If you only sell through Instagram or TikTok, paste that profile instead — you can be listed as a friend of the ring, though the hop itself needs a real page to pass visitors along. One line about what you make 70 characters. This is what people see in the ring. Your email Used to send your slug and to warn you if the code ever falls off your site. Nothing else, ever. Anything else? (optional) Send application

What happens next

1. We read it and reply with your slug — a short name like pocket-pastel.
2. You paste a few lines of plain HTML somewhere on your site.
3. You tell us it's up, and you're in the ring that day.

The full instructions, including the code itself, are on the ring's own join page.
