January 29th ColoradoKpopper, MissingHaechan, and PaintedBlossoms celebrated the 5 Aquarius boys of NCT! Lucas, Johnny, Doyoung, Jisung, and Jaehyun! We celebrated at the wonderful Snowl once again. With Cupsleeves, special drinks, a photo opportunity, raffle and more! Not only were we celebrating these five boys, but we were also celebrating my birthday and I couldn't have asked for a better birthday party!

Like all these cupsleeve events we had, well, cupsleeves! This time the amazing Katy, aka Missing Haechan, designed our sleeves and they turned out gorgeous. A perfect fit for our universe/Aquarius vibe we were going for. Along with the cupsleeves, our freebee this time was a special deco polaroid - each boy having a specially done design that was had decorated by Katy, Morgan, and I! It was truly fun to find a design that matched each boy and specially decorating each one by hand to make it just that bit more special. 

Another fun feature we had at the event was our special event drinks provided by the amazing staff at Snowl! The first one was our Moonwalk Taro Tea - which was a Oreo Taro Tea and it was absolutely delicious. The second one was a bit different but also amazing- especially if you love Lemonade and sweetness. We had the Tastes Like Lemonade, which was a blue Lemonade with Nerds!! Both were absolute sugar bombs but also extremally tasty. The Moonwalk Taro Tea had to be my favorite.

Like with all my events we also made sure to have a special photo area to take all your fun event photos at! This time, to go along with the galaxy theme, we had a galaxy backdrop and some stars to complement that. However, that's not all! We also had our 5 celebrated boys ready and present to take all your desired photos! It was a blast to see everyone's poses with them

For this events charity, we were collecting donations for the Women's Foundation of Colorado to help support women in STEM! Together we were able to raise $210 to donate to this wonderful organization. We collected donations for this in two different ways. The first was with our Gacha! We had capsules with special made Aquarius keychains and constellation stickers designed by @PaintedBlossoms - and in some cases the capsules also contained raffle tickets for our raffle.

You could also purchase raffle tickets and all the proceeds also went to the donation!

Speaking of raffle- we had an amazing raffle prize. Straight from Korea (Thanks to the fantastic Win D.) of many NCT centric items: NCIT Mug, Jisung Hot Sauce Bottle, Lucase Photocard Book,  WayV "Take Over the Moon" Black Edition, NCT Dream "We Go Up," and NCT127 "Superhuman!"

A big congratulations to Sophie for winning this great basket!

As always I want to give a big thank you to SNOWL for hosting us and providing tasty drinks! I also want to give a big shout out to my cohosts @MissingHaechan and @PaintedBlossoms for making the event possible with me! I love hosting these events and hosting them with you guys always makes them better. Also a huge thank you to Morgan and Win for gathering supplies and volunteering their time to also make this event happen!

Make sure to check out the calendar to see all upcoming events! See you then!

On December 18th, @BananaJinTrades and I joined together once again to celebrate Kim Seokjin and Kim Taehyung with out Kim Birthday Gala Cupsleeve! I had wanted to host a red carpet theme cupsleeve last year, but unfortunately due to Covid-19 that idea had to be put on hold. However, I was so excited to be able to make it reality this year with the Kim Birthday Gala cupsleeve!

We broke out our fanciest decorations and dresses to bring a gala feel to the wonderful Ju's Coffee. Roses adorned every table and we had gold accents thrown thrown about. One of my favorite parts of these events is the photo area and we made sure to decorate it just as fancy as the rest of the décor with a gold hoop and red roses to match. As an added fun we took Ju's Christmas tree and decorated it with Jin and Tae photos. It was so fun to see everyone's excitement as they waited in line and saw the photos. 

An added fun for this event was that we - the hosts dressed up in our nicest dresses to really bring out the Gala theme. We were also pleasantly surprised to have a few guests join us in their nicest outfits!

For this event we did donations a little differently and were collecting new toys to donate to the Action Center in Lakewood to help families in need this holiday season. We were also still collecting money and along with 61 toys we also donated $265!

As our thank you for donating - each donor got a special event wristband and rose, as well as a chance to enter our raffle. For this raffle prize we were offering a full set of the BTS Dynamite Funko pops! Big congratulations to Cheyenne for winning!

I want to thank everyone who came to support @BananaJinTrades and I for our last event of 2021! We had a blast and had an absolutely amazing turn out to celebrate Jin and Tae! I can't wait to continue hosting events in 2022 and meeting all of you again! 

Make sure you are checking out the calendar to see what's coming up next! See you next time!

On October 16th @Bananajintrades and I held my 3rd ever Jimin day! For those who have been with me from the start, you would know that Jimin day in 2019 was my very first ever cupsleeve event - so this day is very special to me. Not only that but Jimin is my bias so I obviously had to go all out!

Hosted at Ju's coffee once again we decked out the place in decor, filled it with music and laughter, and had a blast meeting new and seeing old friends!

We broke out all the Jimin and Chimmy items we own to decorate the space. Along with fun orange, black, and purple balloons and handcuffs to go along with out locked up theme. Someone took the theme of "Locked up with Jimin" a little too literally and got stuck in the handcuffs (we love you Ivy!) but it provided a great laugh for a great day.  

As always we were collecting donations for a charity - this time we were collecting for Urban Peak, an organization that helps teenage homelessness. As a thank you for donating, participants received a special postcard, wristband, and raffle ticket for the opportunity to win our special Jimin/Chimmy theme raffle prize!

Thank you to everyone who donated. Together we were able to raise $400 to donate and a big congratulations to winner was Michelle S. for winning the raffle prize!

Like with all of my events we also had a fun backdrop to take photos with as long as an appearance of a Jimin cut out! After great feedback from Namkook day we also brought back a fun celebratory cake!! I am still not a cake decorator but I think I did pretty good!!

Thank you once again to everyone who came and celebrated with us as well as supported us! We'll see you at the next event! Make sure to check the calendar to see which event that is!

Calling all superheros! On October 2nd, KonnectPop, MorganVcameron, and I came together to celebrate 2 years with the super group SuperM! With an Avengers theme and good company we had an amazing time celebrating. 

Snowl was fantastic to once again host us in our celebrating. The good ice cream and boba only elevating the fun. The great staff at Snowl prepared us 2 special drinks: The Tiger Blast (milk tea frappe with brown sugar drizzle) and The Super M-ango Milk Tea (mango flavor milk tea)! Both drinks were delicious though I have to say the Tiger Blast was definitely my favorite.

Along with the themed drinks we decorated the space in SuperM and Avenger décor. Our backdrop consisting of a city scape with all the fun sound bubbles from the comics. This back drop - and theme in general - has been one of my favorites to work with and I had so much fun setting everything up. 

The sleeves this time were in the traditional airholder style, and although the design gave me a hard time to start, it also turned out to be one of my favorites. With the purchase of a drink you got 1 double-sided PC of your favorite SuperM boy(s).

An extra feature we added to the event this time was a fun gotchapon game! For $1 - which was donated to The Gathering Place - you'd reach into our super bag and pull out a special prize! The prizes included temporary tattoos and circle cards to special keychains with plains, cars, microphones, and cowboy hats (thanks Taemin)! In select capsules you could even receive a raffle ticket for a chance to win a Super One album set! If you were really lucky you could even win the tiger keychain with TWO raffle tickets! It was a super fun addition to the event and I can't wait to bring it back for another event in the future.

To wrap up I want to say a big thank you to everyone who attended and helped us celebrate. Thanks to you all we raised $100 for The Gathering Place to help Women and Children in need. I also wanted to give a big congratulations to Janey B. for winning the Super One album set!

Lastly, but certainly not least, I want to give a big shout out to KonnectPop and @MorganVcameron (on Instagram) for collaberating with me on this celebration. I had a blast planning and throwing the event. I also want to give a big shout out to Katy and Faye for lending there merch for display! It means so much to have amazing supportive friends helping me with these events and I couldn't do it without them.

Thank you once again to everyone who came to celebrate with us and I can't wait to see you at the next event. Be sure to check out the calendar to see what's coming up next!

Saturday September 18th was Han and Felix Day! Held at Snowl in Aurora!.

I completely underestimated the amount of Stays that would come and celebrate with us so we ended up running out 2 hours in!!! However, everyone was so kind and understanding. I want to give a big congratulations to Cerise R. for being the winner of the Han and Felix No Easy jewel case raffle!

On September 11th I had the pleasure of partnering with BananaJinTrades yet again to being you Namkook Day! We celebrated Jeon Jungkook and Kim Namjoon of BTS' with cupsleeves, photobooths, cake, and more!

Ju's Coffee in Parker was our amazing location once again. I love working with Ju's - their staff is always friendly and kind each time! The event started at 9am and although we were running a little late with set up I am super happy with how our Permission To Dance theme turned out! Our decore Orange and black with bubble accents to play off the car wash promotion photos. 

To add to the celebration and for the first time at my events we ended up getting a cake! Although it wasn't the most perfect I did my best in decorating and I think it looked pretty cute!

Like all my events we were collecting donations for a charity and a chance to enter our special raffle. The raffle this time was for a Butter album set with all inclusions and two keychains, won by Rachel L! For the donations, we were able to to raise $200 dollars to be donated to One Tree Planted - this means 200 trees will be planted in Jungkook and Namjoon's names!

On July 31st ColoradoKpopper and KonnectPop hosted Red Lee Day! A Mark Lee and Red Velvet celebration! Just a day apart we decided to celebrated the 6 talented people together on their big days! Mark's 22nd birthday and Red Velvets 7 year anniversary.

We had the pleasure of hosting Red Lee Day at Snowl! A wonderful Boba shop in Aurora. Following our sweet and spicy theme we decorated the space with fruits and peppers, the cafe popping with color. Our photobooth section was complete with a watermelon backdrop, an appearance by SuperM mark Lee, and of course - a inflatable siracha bottle!

For this event we were raising money for the Superhero Heart Run - an organization for Congenital Heart Disease. Together we were able to raise $200 for this amazing charity. As incentive for donation we had 2 raffle prizes, a Red Velvet pack of an album, stickers, and a Red Velvet SM Bear pin won by Emily N. and a Mark Lee pack of an album and 2 SM Bear pins (NCT and SuperM) won by Joycelin G!

Lastly, I would love to give a huge shout out to Katy! One of my best friends for bringing her Red Velvet and Mark Lee collection to display for everyone to see. She had some great items from magazines to pcs to show off and allow us all to look through. I always love seeing other peoples collections and I hope you all enjoyed seeing hers!

Next, on August 7th, we were back at the fantastic Ju's Coffee for BlackPink's 5th Anniversary! I had partnered with KSA - UCCS' Korean Student Org. to bring you all this event and I loved it. We really took the blackpink into our theme - decorating the cafe with beautiful art posters, balloons, streamers, and pearls!

For this event we once again were raising money for the Golden Lotus Foundation - and thanks to everyone generous hearts we raised $100 to donate! The raffle prize for this event was an offical Blackpink Lightstick Vr. 2, lovesick girls art print, and Blackpink member buttons - a big congratulations to Jason K. for winning this raffle!

 I'm very late at posting this but better late then never! We have a lot to cover in this post - 3 events! - so buckle up and settle in! 

BTS Day was June 12th at Riize Coffee in Littleton and we had an AMAZING turn out! This was my second festa celebration for BTS - the first being the 7 year last year - and I'm so glad we were able to have a proper celebration this year!

Our BTS Festa event was the biggest cupsleeve I have held to date with special drinks, vendors, 2 giveaways, and several special photo opportunities! 

The wonderful staff at Riize Coffee Co. created four special drinks for our event: The BORAHAE Soda (My personal favorite) a blackberry and vanilla sparkling water, the Dark and Wild Americano for espresso and hazelnut lovers, the Dynamite Cookie for those who enjoy a sweeter coffee and the taste of an oatmeal cookie, and lastly the Persona Lemonade a tart peach lemonade. 

Aside from the special drinks we also had four wonderful vendors selling special BTS (and general Kpop) goodies! There were totes, journals, keychains, pins, soaps, and jewelry!

Along with all of that we had several fun photo spots and decorations scattered about. It's always one of my favorite things to watch everyone take photos with the props and just have a general good time - if you would like to see some of these photos check out the past event gallery under calendar.

Like with most of my events we were also collecting donations to raise funds for The Golden Lotus Foundation once again - a local non profit in Colorado Springs working on the education and celebration of Asian heritage - and we were able to raise $700 to donate to this wonderful charity! 

The next event I would like to highlight in this blog post will be KBand Day held June 26th at Riize Coffee Co! I was happy to partner with KonnectPop once again to bring this exciting event. I am admittedly not that well versed in many Kbands, however, we had an amazing time with a variety of goodies such as postcards, PCs, special guitar picks and more all representing a wide variety of groups!

There was also a photobooth with inflatable instruments and we played two extremely fun games - 1: Guess that instrument by the sound and 2: Name songs based on popular words (proud to say my team one this one!)

Lastly we also paired this event with a donation to charity - although the charity is TBD we are happy to announce we have raised $301! I will announce which charity we donate to once we have decided!

The last event I would like to highlight in this post was my most recent event for Taeyong of NCT.  This event was hosted July 3rd at Ju's Coffee and I'm so happy to be back at the little cafe. Aside from missing Ju herself I missed the delicious boba she served. 

Taeyong day was a perfect introduction back to the cafe and inspired by TY himself we decorated the space with a red roses theme. 

Not only were there roses on the cupsleeve's and scattered around the entire cafe but each guest got their own rose with a special Taeyong Day PC! This was definitely one of my most favorite themes I ever worked with with just how pretty everything turned out. Big shout out to Katy for providing the beautiful official prints for display and a big thank you to Debrah for providing the giveaway items for our raffle!

I want to say a big thank you to everyone who attended any of these events and continues to attend and support me. If it wasn't for you guys I wouldn't be able to continue to do something I absolutly love doing.

I look forward to seeing you at my next events! Make sure to check out the calendar tab to see everything that's coming up! 

The event was held at Riize Coffee Co. in Littleton, the same place as BamBam day. Just like BamBam day Chrissy, the owner, hooked us up with some delicious drinks. Team Rocket (a butterscotch latte) and the Oh My! Berry Blast! (a strawberry lemonade). Aside from the delicious drinks there was a special photo area, music videos , freebies, cupsleeves, and as a special treat we had our very first vendor the amazing Rippanagaby!!

May 1st was our BamBam day celebration and cupsleeve! This was our first in person cup sleeve in half a year and we were so excited to share it with you all!

The event was held at Riize Coffee Co. in Littleton - the same place as my very first ever cupsleeve in 2019. Chrissy, the owner of Riize, prepared three special drinks for this event! The Ahgase Peach Green Tea (which was SO GOOD), the Dab Dab Moach, and the King Thai Chai.

Aside from the delicious drinks there was a special BamBam day photo area, music videos playing, freebies, and of course the cupsleeve! For this event I chose to go more black and white/vogue theme due to BamBams recent magazine and glamour photo shoots and I have to say it was one of the most fun themes I've done. 

As most know, besides just the fun decor and theme, I like adding a fundraising aspect to most of my events. In support of our AAPI community I chose to collect donations for an Asian Non-Profit in Colorado Springs: The Golden Lotus Foundation. This organization strives to "celebrate tradition and inspire passion for Asian heritage through community resources, education programs, and expand support for culture projects" as well as is working to build more community spaces for the AAPI community in Colorado Springs.  Thanks to everyone's generosity we were able to raise $120 to donate!

Lastly, as part of collecting donations, we were offering a raffle basket filled with a Breathless CD, 2 art prints, stickers, and official BamBam photocards! A big congratulations to Yaretzi for winning that special prize!

Thank you so much to everyone who came and supported me and my events once again! I couldn't continue to do this without you all! See you all at the next one!
