What to expect at Mottainai Handmade Market

The original Mottainai Flea Market was designed around the 3R principles of Mottainai – to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.

This market, with its focus on handmade crafts, gives a chance for crafters and artists to share their passions with others and exhibit their handmade goods.

The market is held multiple times a month in different locations around Tokyo, giving plenty of opportunities to shop handmade arts and crafts.

People can also bring their unwanted craft items such as buttons, fabric scraps, thread, yarn and ribbons to give them a new home, where they will be sold at the materials market with the proceeds going to charity or used at workshops organised for the public.

The principle of Mottainai teaches the importance of life and respect for the irreplaceable earth’s resources.

The Mottainai Handmade Market has been happening since June 2012 and aims to aid in environmental conservation by making the most effective use of limited resources.
