At the end of last year, as we prepared for 2024, Neil and I thought about the experience of our shop, which all comes from how we first started Yoseka in 2017. At the time, we had an idea to introduce Asian stationery to people here in the US. Having grown up in a stationery store in Taiwan, Neil’s concept of stationery was so different from the stationery available here. There is a lot of individuality reflected in stationery when you grow up in Asia because there are so many choices and every category of stationery brings more to choose...

Special Nouto version of the Yoseka holiday postcard! I'm so happy we were able to squeeze in this collaboration with @nouto_co ! These ink swatching cards from Nouto are a really fun way to use fountain pen inks, as you see Leo did here using the card like a little coloring sheet! We are including one Nouto version card for orders with fountain pens or fountain pen inks! Leave us a note in your order "Nouto" if you'd like one regardless! 🙂 Hope you all have fun swatching inks with this festive card! -May

Hi everyone! It’s May with this year’s holiday edition postcard! As you may know, I made a drawing for last year’s card, showing Team Yoseka as elves working on orders through the holiday season. It was such a cute drawing that included recognizable details about our team members and some of our favorite stationery items. I wanted to continue that for this year’s card, which became a challenge as our team has grown so much in 2023!I thought of the idea of creating a holiday village scene that includes all of our team members and I think it turned out...

Happy November everyone! And happy almost holidays! In a YouTube video a couple of weeks ago, I asked whether it was too early to start thinking about Christmas and the holidays, and to my surprise many of you answered that it wasn't. Then November 1st rolls around and I start to notice twinkle lights and trees going up in people's houses as I'm scrolling through my phone so I guess it really isn't too early to start thinking about Christmas. I've got holiday gift guides, tree decorating day, Christmas break potty training, smoked turkeys, holiday specials, and lots more on the brain....
