To keep papers, photos, or other stationery items organized, the curation includes a Chairaikoguma A5 folder. Subscribers will receive 1 out of 2 designs, and mine is the blue one with Chairaikoguma in different poses. The folder is made of plastic.
Journaling and everyday notetaking is more fun with glitter pens! The set I received comes in blue, green, black, yellow, and pink. They write smoothly and they do make my handwriting standout. There’s also a keychain pencil for drawing or sketching, and it looks really adorable with its night sky themed pendant. Subscribers will receive 1 out of 3 pencil designs.
For other creative projects, there’s a sheet of non-iron stickers. Subscribers will receive 1 out of 2 designs, and the one I received features ribbons in different colors. These can be attached to clothes, pouches, bags, pencil cases, or any other item that needs a pop of color. All you have to do is to press them on a surface using a coin.
The Animal Crossing craze is still on in Japan and we aren’t complaining! This pack of Animal Crossing origami features popular in the game like Tom Nook, K.K. Slider, and Mabel. According to Inku Crate, aside from using the papers to make origami, you can also use them to wrap small gifts. Another animal themed item in the box is the bird clip. There are 4 possible designs for this clip and I received the bird in yellow and pink.
The newest addition to my washi tape collection is this sea animal washi tape. Subscribers will receive 1 out of 16 animal designs, and mine features an adorable dolphin on a pink background. It will be such a kawaii way to seal envelopes and to decorate journal pages.
It’s not a gummy bear but a scented bear glue! There are 4 possible designs for this item, and I received the yellow one with a brown cap. This bear-shaped glue bottle will come in handy for craft projects like sticking photos and papers onto scrapbooks, plus the scent is really good. It also looks so kawaii when displayed on my desk!
Speaking of my desk, this kawaii pen stand is exactly what I need to keep it looking tidy. The stand can accommodate a lot of pens, pencils, and markers, and there are several tiers so you can group them accordingly. The next time I need a pen, I know just exactly where to find it. There are 6 possible colors for this item, and I received the pink one. It also features a floral doodle on the sides.
