I love japanese craft books and japanese culture in general. I'm studying their wabi-sabi concept and I would like to use it in my creations. Thank you for the beautiful images. I follow your blog since a long time, but I'm too shy to comment ;) Ciao!

Love Amalia's comment. So true. Love what you have up today. So subtle, understated and tasteful. Is that where you got the idea to paint the beautiful smooth stone?

Thanks so much for sharing:)

If you live in Seattle, Uwajimaya near China town has an amazing selection. They may have an on line store.

I am a bit of a Japanese craft book addict. I came across a little stash of them in a Japanese used bookstore in Honolulu and they were only $5 each. I was quite excited to say the least! Thank you for the little peek into your lovely collection.
