I’m in the midst of assembling 11 handmade books/zines about – and constructed from – cute Asian stationery. A lot of the stationery items included are rare and hard to find in the U.S. I created this zine last year for a swap and had enough to make extras, but I never got around to it until now. As soon as they’re finished, I’ll be adding them to my Etsy shop. And even though I made them for a zine swap, they're more like a handmade book.
Here are the 11 kawaii zines:
Five have covers constructed from Nyan Nyan Nyanko gift bags:
And six have covers constructed from Rilakkuma gift bags:
Here’s a preview of inside one of the zines:
These are only a few of the stickers that are going into these zines, one way or another:
I’m currently embellishing the pages with stickers. Then I’ll be stuffing stickers and mini memo sheets into the envelopes that are bound into each zine, stuffing more goodies into the back covers (they were originally gift bags after all), and lastly decorate the front covers. Phew. I better get busy.
