Handmade Stationery Hello Sandwich Workshop!

July 31, 2011 by Hello Sandwich

Hello Sandwiches!

It's time for another Hello Sandwich workshop at Shibaura House!
I hope you can come along.

At the Hello Sandwich Handmade Stationery Workshop we will be making out own super cute envelopes lined with patterned wax paper and decorating them with seals, labels and stamps. We will also make our own original letter writing set which can be photocopied for future use! And we'll make a cute fold out photo / letter envelope holder with four sweet little pockets! Let’s enjoy the return to hand written letters!

Hello Sandwichさんによるワークショップ。季節に応じたテーマでかわいいものをつくります。
第2回は、ハンドメイドステーショナリー。好きな形とサイズの封筒と便せんを作ることができます。いろんな種類の紙を選んで、マスキングテープやスタンプ、シールなどでデコレーションすれば、あなただけのオリジナルレターセットができあがり！ Hello Sandwichさんと会話をすれば、英語の勉強にもなっちゃいます。

Let’s have fun making handmade stationery together!

Japanese Craft Book (sneak peek!)

July 28, 2011 by Hello Sandwich

This is just about my dream come true! At the moment I'm making a craft book with a Japanese Publishing company.
Today we had a 7 hour meeting at the Art Directors house...photographing lace and buttons, styling a pile of pencils, selecting collages, choosing colour ways, drinking coffee, eating fancy marshmallows, using the Art Directors office-sized printer (um, how cool to live in Tokyo and have your own office-sized laser printer in your home!), and having the most lovely time ever. I'd be so happy if I could just continue to make craft books in Japan forever~! Our book will be released later this year and I really hope you will like it.

Editions de Paris Mook

July 27, 2011 by Hello Sandwich

Hello Sandwiches!

The mook I designed for Japanese company Editions de Paris is now on sale! It's a lovely collection of cute and colourful Paris interiors. It was so much fun working on. You can pick it up in the 'mook' section in bookshops and newsagents in Japan. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Enoshima Island

July 25, 2011 by Hello Sandwich

On our day trip to Enoshima Beach we also walked across to Enoshima Island. It was so lovely walking through the historic streets up to the shrine, keeping cool under the giant trees and taking a rest at the lookout. They even have a giant escalator if the walk up is too much for you. The island is worth a little visit if you're at Enoshima Beach.

Enoshima Beach

July 24, 2011 by Hello Sandwich

We took the Odakyu-sen to Enoshima Beach today. Such fun!

Asahi and Enoshima Beer on the beach.
Pop-up summer beach restaurants.
Tatami restaurants on the beach.
Edamame at tatami beach restaurants.
Cute shell necklaces for ¥250.
Boys with hairdryers on the beach.
Girls drawing in their eyebrows on the beach.
Water pistols.
Dance stages on the beach.
Rental deck chairs.
Film crews.
Volleyball on brown sand.
Taco restaurants with a beach view.
Kakigouri.
Earthquake and Tsunami warning signs everywhere.

The beaches here are so so different to Australian beaches! I could not stop saying 'omoshiroi!' and I took a million photos!

If you come to Tokyo in summer pop on down to Enoshima beach. If you take the number 12 bus to Zushi you can find a less crowded beach ;)

Wa - Tokyo is so much fun!

P.S. I took so many photos that I have to split this post into two (>_<) Tomorrow I will post some pictures from Enoshima Island which you can see in the background of one of the photos above.
