Japanese Stationery Box

RyuRyu - Embroidery Enjoyment Series To-Do List (ToDo List Memo) Home - More than “yet another memo pad”, it elevates this cosy rectangular block as a symbol of progress, of opportunity and the pace of your very life. Balloons, houses and things to-do, they are mundane, yet never fade from fashion. This timeless design is printed on excellent paper with a strong resistance to bleed and 13 lines to fill with your needs. If you look closely, you’ll notice an embroidery print on the paper itself.

Elcommun- Mountain Landscape Die-cut Sticky Note - The mountain shape allows you to stack the sheets and the sheets' slim size lets you easily create mountain ranges to cover up mistakes, decorate or simply use as dividers and headers! You will either get green or snow capped mountains. This minimalistic design was concocted by MATOKA and select stationery store “Alaska Stationery”. The packaging doubles as a mount so you can use it as a bookmark or mount it to your planner. They are excellent for indexing!

Elcommun- Mountain Landscape Memo Set - The first time you lay eyes upon this set of matching memo pads, you may mistake it for being made of fabric. What you are seeing is the results of MATOKA’s high quality printing techniques. The sky motif especially captured our imagination, but play with them as you like! The mountain motifs can be folded in 3 to create a 3D effect. Alaska Stationery are on a long hiatus, so collaboration items like this are rare. You will get either design in the box.

SAIEN- Masking Tape Camp Map - Some masking tape has this brittle feeling, like it won’t really stick, or perhaps tear if you’re not careful. SAIEN’s tapes do not fit this description. SAIEN’s washi tape is texture rich, detail doused and adhesive like a, well.. like a pretty strong washi tape! The design is as if taken straight out of an orientation guide from a Japanese campsite, with cute little notes, pathways and icons indicating what to do where. Great for decor, ok for writing on. Can you spot all 36 camp related designs?

Mindwave - View Series Sticker - The view series is a lesson in time, in appreciating the environment around us and noticing the subtle beauty of the moment we are in right now, it will never be again. Each of the 5 versions you can get in the box features a different time a day or season of the year, but all the same tranquil village. The stickers are plentiful and great both as reminders, decor or illustrating things to remember.

MINDWAVE - With Nature stickers - The sticker fiends at MINDWAVE are at it again with an elegant collection of natural scenic watercolor designs. These are flake seal level washi, so it’s hard to spot the perforation, but it’s there, the stickers are just very thin. Despite the thin nature (pun intended) of each design, they are all elevated by gold foil accenting edges, almost like golden light emphasising the internal value of a memory. While there are 6 designs you may get, they all come With Nature. Gold in art is often associated with holiness in many cultures through time.

Kutsuwa - Punyu Spiral Pen Grip -We’ll admit it, we were a little sceptical when we ordered these. Why add an extra grip to your pen, if the fist one is bad, shouldn’t it just have been designed better? Well, all those doubts went away the moment we opened and tried it! It’s springy, it’s fun and the way it breaks light not only makes writing tools comfy but also adds a magnifying effect that gives your tools almost an alien feeling. And it fits on anything! It’s not that it's needed for a better grip, but it gives you another option, despite the original grip. This is a sleeper best item in the box. Punyu is onomatopoeia for the sensation of something soft, stretchy or a bit squishy. You get different colors at random.

PLATINUM - Preppy 03 #4 Crystal Fountain Pen and Cartridge Ink - We’re really happy to introduce a fountain pen, especially for subscribers who perhaps never had the chance to try one before. The Platinum Preppy is an object of much online praise for its signature smooth nib that seemingly glides on the paper, and transparent body you can fill with colored paper for customization. Fountain pens come in all sorts of styles and price ranges, but few compete with the preppy for its quality to entry level friendliness. We’ve included a pack of 2 extra ink cartridges in addition to the one included with the preppy. To activate the cartridge, twist open the pen, aim the part of the cartridge with the metal ball onto the stick inside the nip part of the pen. Then press hard to release the ink into the pen. Finally screw the pen back together. The Preppy has sold 15 million units as of 2024!

Midori - Yurulog Water-based Pen Sticker Sheets Forest Animal - Cute, functional and plenty are all adjectives we like to see used for our stationery and this sticker sheet designed with artist Nanako can claim all three. The storybook-like stickers come in a variety of sizes to fit all planner habits and are compatible with water-based markers or highlighters. There are two pages, one featuring more “title like” shapes, while the other have smaller and longer ones intended for indexing, borders and decor. The designs are a little surreal don’t you think?
