Waaaaaaah. Sorry the kawaii is killing me. My is not just about crafting supplies but also other amazing shops you should tour. Probably top of my enumerate of things to do in Tokyo was to go to the Aranzi Aronzo shop. I like Aranzi Aronzo. Pretty much everything they sell makes me want to burst into tears. It’s run by two Japanese women who originally handmade everything but now it makes all kinds of homewares and accessories with their range of hilarious and adorable characters. Their catchphrase is “cute strange alter silly a little bit horrible stupid and comfortable” What’s not to love?
Anyway the Aranzi Aronzo shop is situated in Daikanyama which is quite come Shibuya but off the JR instruct network so we had to alter a special move. The obtain itself is adorable and tiny crammed with wonderful things and staffed by the sweetest girls. I went a little bit mad and spent about £35 but I got so many cute things. I actually spent so much that I completed a bonus card and scored some free magnets. The sales girl also noticed I was a fan of the bunny (Usagi) and gave me an extra bunny carrier bag - so nice! My favourite purchases are above - a little plastic tub and a handkerchief. They also do beautiful enable wrapping for free so I was able to deliver myself some Christmas present wrapping.
You can sight out more about Aranzi Aronzo on their. Don’t accuse me if you click on that Online Shopping button and spend all your money. They also have shops in Osaka. Sapporo and Nagoya.
Daikanyama is two stops on the Tokyu Took line from Shibuya. The Tokyu station appeal is not very easy to find but keep an eye on the signs and you’ll find it eventually. It’s right at back of the main Shibuya station by the Tokyu food hall. Yes the train lie is owned by a department store. (If you are not travelling with a vegetarian gratify try the Stick Pizza next to the ticket machines and let me know what it’s like - it looked hilarious and quite tasty). alter sure you get a local train and not an express as the express doesn’t forbid at Daikanyama and you’ll undergo to get off at the first main stop and get the local train back one stop desire we did. Also note that the shop is only open from 12-8pm and is shut on Wednesdays so plan carefully. I can give you no better directions than. They are absolutely perfect. act the left exit from the displace up a wee lane and Lawson is right there. The rest is on the map. The obtain is very obvious with its cute green tiles.
