かわいいお店、世界でひとつの雑貨さがし。

Hello Sandwiches.

かわいいお店、世界でひとつの雑貨さがし is a lovely new book featuring super cute zakka and handmade shops in Tokyo (and a few in Kamakura and Yokohama). The book also presents six shops who share with us an original zakka item perfect for any gift giving occasion. The book is perfect for anyone who is interested in zakka shops in Tokyo.

AND...the book features a few profiles on handmade creators!

Do you remember when they came to my mini-me Shimokitazawa apartment for the shoot? Well, I was asked to show the readers a little craft project so I made a little decorated wax paper envelope.

These envelopes are perfect for showcasing super cute patterned stationery. I made the envelopes by chopping up some kitchen wax paper sandwich bags, using an envelope template to trace the shape, sealing with some fluoro mt tape (my tape glue didn't stick so well on the wax paper so mt tape came to the rescue) and then finally decorating with some original labels, mt tape and seals.

I hope you will have fun making some yourself. It can be addictive!

This book is on sale here in Japan October 6th. And you can pick up your copy online here.
