Hello Sandwich Shibaura House Regular Tokyo Craft Workshops!

Hello Sandwiches!

I have some exciting news!

I will be hosting Regular Tokyo Craft Workshops starting from this month!!!

I. AM. SO. EXCITED!

Some of the workshops in the line up include tote bags, creative stationery, collage patchwork luncheon mats, and so many more cute crafty things! The first workshop will be pretty Tanabata decorations (in time for Tanabata festival on July 7th) inspired by traditional Polish Paper Decorations.

I will be hosting the workshops at the amazing new Shibaura House designed by SANAA architects. (Do you remember this post ;)

The brand new building has only just been completed.








My first workshop at Shibaura House will be next week.

Tokyo Etsy Craft Party!

Hello Sandwiches!

I just uploaded my first Hello Sandwich post for My VOGUE Japan blog! The first post the lovely team at VOGUE Japan posted on my behalf so it was a challenge to navigate through the Japanese backend of the site...But somehow I pressed a little yellow button with some unfamiliar kanji and the post seems to have gone live! I've posted in Japanese and English so I hope you can pop over to have a peek.

My post is about the Tokyo Etsy Craft Party which is on today in Shibuya. It sounds like a lot of fun and everyone is welcome. They will be hosting workshops showing how to make fabric badges and a cute little bow ring. It's all in honour of the Etsy Worldwide craft party.

I hope wherever you are you'll be able to make some craft today. You may even like to watch some episodes of Hello Sandwich Craft TV for inspiration (the new episode is here)! Or dig out your copy of the Hello Sandwich Gift Wrapping Zine and make a little confetti bow for someone you love :)

Back to the blogging topic...I'm also writing a Tokyo column for Poppytalk blog, and I also write a weekly Tokyo column for Michi Girl Website! Pop on over some time to say hello.

Happy Weekend Sandwiches!

Mini-me Tokyo Apartment Living

This flickr user reminds us that just because you have a mini-me sized Tokyo apartment, doesn't mean you can't make it cute!

It's a little shameful to admit that my bedside table is a packing box from a year ago when I first moved to Tokyo.

Shinmaruko

The Small Dutch Fair, held at Onaka Store was closest to Shinmaruko station on the Toyoko-sen. I love wondering around new-to-me suburbs with my camera. Here are a few Sandwich favourites.

Small Dutch Fair

Today I visited Coranda (The Small Dutch Fair) at Onaka Store.
This cute little space tucked away from the nearest station was jam packed with colourful and creative offerings from the Netherlands including pieces by Tas-ka and a collection of super cute drawings by Dutch children. Also on show were some adorable baked bread letters, giant pressed coffee beans, floral workshops and enough crochet heart mobiles to fill any mini-me Tokyo apartment.









My friend Sakato-san who organised this event also made this beautiful zine for the event!





I hope you had a lovely weekend!
