WOYWW: Japan


For once I am so pleased with my messy desk!  It is filled with goodies I brought back from my visit to Nagoya and Takayama, Japan (I arrived just a few hours ago).  Japan is the best place to buy washi tape (well, it did originate there)...


and all sorts of pens...


I am looking forward to using my goodies for my journal illustrations...


And if you are on Instagram, you may be interested in more pictures of my journal illustrations (@peggy_aplSEEDS) or some pictures of my travels (@peggyapl)...

    What wonderful new buys. I can't imagine many hours of pleasure using all that.

    I have always known, somewhere deep inside me, that a trip to Japan would result in a stationery buying frenzy...there's something about their love for it too....
    So your tree stash makes me feel very happy..and my word, what gorgeous photos..if a little wintery!

    Beautiful wintry photographs! What a lovely place....Japan is somewhere I've always wanted to go. But I would buy fabric not washi tapes, pretty though they are, lol!!
