About

So what exactly is Falling Alice all about? We're three bored teenagers with too much time on our hands selling t-shirts and accessories we created ourselves. We love hearts, butterflies, teapots, victorian dresses, finnish cookies, and man-eating rabbits with sharp fangs <3 Yes, we're a bit mad here but, that's precisely what we aim for.

Falling Alice started when Matoki got the idea for a t-shirt company. Having a love for art and design, she used her skill and odd sense of humor to create super cute designs (though she describes them as "macabre"). But Matoki couldn't run this business alone, thus Mai and Co-chan joined the Falling Alice Team! She got Mai to help out with designs and to manage the site, and Co-chan to manage the finance and also to help out with the site. But the company also needed a name. So after a long debate (and many taken domains), we picked Falling Alice since we loved the whimsical oddities of Alice in Wonderland. Or maybe because the name was short and could fit on a button.

Our idea of t-shirts crashed when we ran into finacial problems. We then came up with the idea for buttons instead, and used that as our focus. We opened our shop on August 14, 2009, and began to sell our pins. Having been a hit at our school and even shipping to various places around the US, we found a way to meet our original goal of selling t-shirts! Now, we've shifted our focus back to girls' t-shirts while still selling buttons as a limited accessory item.

Ever since we've been attempting to branch out even more with our shop. Now we're beginning to add tote bags and jewelry. We hope to be able to add even more items such as scarfs, hats, plushies, and anything else we can think of! We've gotten a lot of support so far, and we hope we can contiune to grow!
