Japanese Craft Book Photo Shoot Sneak Peek

Hello Sandwiches!

Here are a few sneak peek photos from the photo shoot for one of the Japanese craft book I am making with two other authors. It was such a fun day!

Except I had to have a portrait taken (at the end of the day urgh!) for the authors page (>_<)

I can't wait till the book is out in a couple of months to show you!

Hello Sandwiches,

I've been busy working on my new Hello Sandwich book that I'm making with a Japanese publisher! Here are some of the fabrics I stocked up on the other day for the projects.

I am so excited about Cicada's new book 'State of Craft' to be released in October. I received a PDF of the book tonight and there are so many cute craft projects in there I think you will love!

There are a few Hello Sandwich spreads in there too!

My first デジタル一眼レフ (Digital SLR)

I can't believe it's taken me this long to get my first Digital SLR but I'm so happy my new camera arrived today! I've been walking around my neighbourhood all day taking photos. It's such fun learning about cameras. My dad is a pro photographer so I can't wait for him to teach me how to use my new camera.

Udagawa-san's Magazine Projects

Hello Sandwiches,

Do you remember my Japanese Craft Idol Udagawa-san? And how I went to her house one afternoon for Crafternoon? Well...The lovely Udagawa-san has published our crafternoon in a new stationery magazine!

This is the little handmade folder I made at Udagawa-san's house.

And here it is alongside Udagawa-san's super cute version at our crafternoon in the magazine!

My funny odango is there too!

Udagawa-san collected all of the materials we used during our craft and saved our memories in her sketch book.

Udagawa-san has produced many projects for this magazine such as cute hand-stamping techniques, and a teeny tiny matchbox letter. If you have the chance to see this magazine in your newsagents be sure to pick it up!

I am shooting the craft book this week, so I might not be blogging so much these next few days. If you want a sneak peek of behind the scenes at our shoot, I'll post some pictures on my Hello Sandwich Instagram.

Japanese Magazine

Hello Sandwiches,

I just had a Japanese magazine come to my apartment to do a profile photo shoot for an upcoming zakka / handmade mook they are publishing. The staff from the editorial team gave me this giant bag of cute fireworks as a little present along with a stack of books! The photographer was Italian - so interesting to have three languages spoken at the shoot!

ありがとうさいとさん！楽しかった！

Happy Weekend!

Love Sandwich
