Going to Tokyo in the next week and can’t wait for a postman to deliver a printed copy? No problem!

This special PDF edition for last minute travelers is streamlined for printing – it’s got all the same shopping information as the pre-printed version but none of the extras and only includes images of the shops and their logos to save you some ink!

The shopping guide covers a range of crafty and cute shops for fabric, sewing supplies, washi, stationery, Print Gocco, kawaii, toys and homewares. I tell you where to find them (with proper directions), what they look like, what they sell and what the prices are like.

Shops/areas included: Akihabara, Aranzi Aronzo, Daiso, Itoya, Kiddyland, Lemmon, Loft, Lucky Star, Nakamise Dori, Okadaya, Sanrio Gift Gate, Sunshine City, Super Potato, Tama Depa, Tokyu Hands, Tomato and Fabric Town/Nippori.

It also includes a special discount voucher in case you want to order the real thing, or the Ten Days in Tokyo zine on your return.

The PDF is set up ready to print in black and white and requires just a printer, two sheets of A4 paper, scissors and a stapler. Full instructions for printing and assembling are included.

A link to download the files will be emailed to your order address within 48 hours of ordering.

You can buy the pre-printed version and my Ten Days in Tokyo zine in the Zines section. The full Tokyo Shopping Guide is also available to read online.
