Hina Doll Pattern

Hina-matsuri, or Girls' Day, is celebrated on March 3 in Japan. A platform (hina dan) is used to display a set of ornamental dolls called hina-ningyo representing the wedding of the Emperor and Empress. They are clothed in the ancient court dress of the Heian period.

SB-themed Halloween Party

According to our native SB experts, in Japan Halloween is sometimes celebrated with a party among friends wearing casually thrown-together costumes (think plastic fangs and white sheets), but it's nowhere near the haunted-house, trick-or-treat extravaganzas held here in the States. Shojo manga fans can have the best of both worlds by holding a SB-style Halloween party!

Portfolio-A-Go-Go

For less than what you’d pay for a generic portfolio off the shelf, you can craft a custom portfolio that will showcase your talent. The simplest version assembles in under an hour (plus drying time) and can be made with any size panels you can comfortably tote. The other two versions highlight your building skills and provide a bit more structure to protect your art.

Portfolio instructions—includes project variants exclusive to shojobeat.com!

Knitty Pretty

The gift-giving season is at hand, and that means chilly days and empty wallets. Shojo Beat is here with fixes for both problems—a quick knit pattern for the scarf that keeps Nana and Ren warm on a special night in Nana volume 1, and earmuffs patterned after the headpieces in the PlayStation game Katamari Damacy.
