   Thank you so much for sharing your sources! When I lived in Japan i spent all my spare money on stationary & craft books. It’s great to have so many choices to buy them here now.

    Great links! I recently discovered O-Check (you may already know of it), a Korean paper company that has lots of similar paper goodness. Their site (www.and-spring.com) is full of beautiful pictures of their products. I’ve seen their products available through Anthropologie and also NoteMaker (an online Aussie shop), but I’m sure there are more stores that carry their products.

    This link is for a shop in Toronto but they ship to the rest of Canada, the states and the UK. The former owners (when it was called the Japanese Paper Place) still sell wholesale but are not connected to The Paper Place.

    Here’s my contribution: http://www.tokyopenshop.com

    They carry the coveted Hi-Tec C Gel Ink pens (in loads of colors) … love them! These are the ones that are sold exclusively for the Japanese market but you can get them in the US via this site. Perfect for writing on Japanese stationery!

    Thanks for sharing your links, Holly!

    I was in Taiwan in 1997 and was amazed at their adorable stationery stores. I loved the cute illustrations with English captions (that occasionally made no sense in English). If anyone has business that takes you to Taiwan, be sure to check out the stationery stores there! I should have stocked up more while I was there.

    Thank you! I finally found a piece of fabric to fill a frame which has been sitting empty in my kids space for ages. I love Japanese design but until now it has sometimes been hit and miss trying to find the right source…

    Check out http://www.japanesegiftmarket.com

    You can find lots of cute deco tape. Also, the website carries lots of Decole items (Holly featured Decole in her 8/31/2006 posting).

    Thanks so much for this post! I’ve been looking for a place to buy Japanese origami paper. And after seeing all those beautiful fabrics, I think I must come up with ideas to sew.
