Are there scrapbooking stores in Tokyo or Yokohama?

Question

I live in Korea and will briefly be in Tokyo and Yokohama this month. I am looking for scrapbooking supplies such as decorated pages, stickers and die-cuts. This is not a known hobby in Seoul but I am hoping that Japan has caught on since I was there 10 years ago. I know about the international order sites. I am just looking to peruse in an actual store.

Answer 1

Yuzawaya (ユザワヤ)is one of the biggest Japanese department store, specialised in handicrafts , art supplies, fabrics, and so on. Today I've just visited Yuzawaya in Kichijoji which is the nearest "Yuzawaya" from the central area of Tokyo. The shop is eight-story building and is located near the Kichijoji JR train station (1or 2 min. from the south exit of the train station). I've confirmed that they sell scrap-booking supplies at the art supply department, 6th floor of the building.
On the 6th floor, stickers and die-cuts are sold in the scrap-booking section, and special papers and decorated pages for scrap-booking are sold in the paper section.

Yuzawaya in Kichijoji:
Address: 2-1-25 Kichijoji-minamimachi, Musashino-city, Tokyo

*Kichijoji is a fashonable and very populer town in Tokyo for shopping, eating, and etc, and it takes only 15 min. from Shinjuku by train (JR Chuo-line).

P.S Tokyu hands shops also sell some scrapbooking supplies, they have shops in Shinjuku, Shibuya, and etc ( I visited the shops, to buy some livingwares,stationaries, but can not assume whether they have many line items for scrapbooking and worth visiting for the purpose.)

Answer 2

There is one in Ginza - but they only have a Japanese site.

The name of the shop is called Ginza Soleil Honten and the address is 6-2, Ginza 1-chome, Chuo-ku, Tokyo. It is on the second floor of a building called Ginza A Building. It is open on weekdays from 9:30-17:30. Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Kinokuniya (Omote-sando and elsewhere), National Azabu (Hiroo) and Meidi-ya (Hiroo, Roppongi and elsewhere) are probably best known. There's also Seijo Ishii (Shibuya and elsewhere), which offers better prices than the three above, but probably not as much variety.

Answer 5

can anyone tell what is the right answer for this question?
