When we went to the Japan Hobby Show in Tokyo earlier this year we saw lots of new stationery and decoration we really loved. We will certainly think about getting some of the articles that we don’t carry in our shop yet. Again and again we were stunned by the attention to detail with which the creators care about even the tiniest features of their little pieces of art. Especially the clay decoration we discovered looked so sensationally realistic, it was hard to believe that those were fake sweets. With so many spectacular designs to look at, it’s no wonder it made our mouth water for more of these incredible DIYs.

Many of the exhibits were incredibly detailed.

Looking really yummy. Cute clay deserts and pastries.

Lots of clay sauces and crafting supplies.

Cute construction. A spectacular house of cookies.

These little bears would feel home right away at modes4u.

Everything small. These tiny decorations are a big inspiration to us.

‘Honey I shrunk the china.’ Incredibly detailed tableware.

What beautiful clay flowers we found here too.

We wonder how many people asked if they can get a slice of this cake.
