My Trip to Nikkei Place's Craft & Bake Fair

My friends and I went to the Nikkei Place's Craft & Bake Fair today. I'm really glad that I went because I enjoyed shopping and looking at every table. There were a lot of handmade Japanese jewellery, hand-knits, clothing, cards, and many other amazing crafts! There were also delicious waffles and Japanese desserts.

PT got a miniature bonsai and A got an really pretty necklace holder for her work ID. As for me, I bought two handmade card with a Japanese doll on the front...so pretty!

The lobby was decorated with Christmas trees and most of the food vendors are located there as well. I love the the cranes hanging from the ceiling (see picture below). It reminds of the ones KY and I made for the Powell Street Festival last year. We had delicious milk chocolate waffles...yum! and MC had a hot dog (lol!)

The lobby

The next room was huge! It was a bit overwhelming at first, but once you start walking and looking around...it's quite nice. I think we spent almost 2 hours there :)

So many people! I was on the stage while taking this picture :)

If you missed today's craft & bake fair, not to worry! It is also open tomorrow, plus, there will be different vendors from today. And if you have nothing to so on a Sunday afternoon, I recommend to visit Nikkei Place. It is different from other craft fairs that I have been to because there is so much culture involved, so it was a good experience.

Happy craft shopping!
