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.

    The art director you're making your book with is one of my friends.
    He's made a lot of very cute books.
    I'm sure yours will turn out wonderfully too.
    I'm really looking forward to it!
