Japanese Books



















Isn't this book 'Zakka ka-do no tsukurikata' just divine! I love Japanese books! If you like Japanese craft books, you'll love Crafting Japanese.

Prefer to flick through a range of Japanese books in person? You might like to pop on over to Kinokuniya or if you are in Melbourne try Kangakanga. Better still, take the QF21 flight to Tokyo and visit Book 1st, Book 246, or for an oldie but a goodie try the 7th floor of Shibuya's Tower Records.

Want to visit these Tokyo stores but don't read or speak Nihongo? Don't fret! Just visit Superfuture and print yourself off some maps. Enjoy!

For more information about Tokyo's bookstores please click here and if Japanese Art and Design books are more your thing please click here.

Oh and I'm still finishing off my Tokyo Guide, but when it is finished I will be sure to post the link here and you can download for more Tokyo tips!

Love love
Hello Sandwich.

    I have a big collection of Japanese craft books. I just can't stop buying them - they are so gorgeous. I can't wait to see your Tokyo guide! I want to get back there as soon as I can. You probably know this... there's also a Kinokuniya in Shinjuku.
