Here are some photos from the Oakwood Holiday Craft Fair that I participated in last Saturday! It was held at a gorgeous private residence in Roppongi, Tokyo. The downstairs of the condo had a lounge space with a bar, and that’s where the fair was. Just out of curiosity, I checked out the rent price of an apartment in this place. Guess how much? 980,000yen (12,000 USD) and up per month.
Since I did not have time to make new items, I just brought everything I had in stock. I was a bit worried whether my shop will look mish mashed and not cohesive,but after sorting out the clothes by color, I think they looked okay!
Cute squishy toys made out of reclaimed fabrics! I wanted to get the piggy one for Kiko!
Pretty Jewelries from Kanaru Designs.
Ceramic candle holders from Flat Packables. I took the blue one home with me.
Overall, it was a great fair, fun time, good opportunity to meet other etsy sellers in Japan. I’ve sold as a vendor at craft fairs in the past both in the U.S. and Japan. I always find myself exhausted after these kind of fairs because it takes all day and usually requires a lot of prep. Surprisingly, this time, the fair was only for 4 hours (from 12pm to 4pm), so it was not as tiring as other fairs I experienced in the past and required almost no prep. My husband, baby and mom came to cheer me on and keep me company:)
