Daiso - The shop of cute!!

It felt like I was back in Japan today! I went shopping at Chatswood (a town in NSW, Australia) which is just like a mini Tokyo. They have many Asian supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries (Breadtop and 85%) and a Mother crepes store (like theone in Ikebukuro, Tokyo) and Yen store Daiso! Eeep!
I spent hours shopping at Daiso!!! yes just like the one in Harajuku - I was immersed in cute zakka and crafty products...oh the packaging! I can't wait to start using and making things with my bundle of kawaii goodies!

Cleaning has never been so fun! Dusting with an apple, deodorizing the room with pretty packaging and bathing with Kawaii critter soap.

These are from the Miracle supermarket next door. Poko-chan is the male friend of Japanese patisserie mascot Peko-chan.
