Bandung oh Bandung...

This afternoon I've returned from Bandung to Jakarta. Yesterday I made a trip to Pasar Baru and Alun-Alun Bandung, to visit my favorite handicraft supply stores.

First stop is at Dunia Baru, which I used to buy cute buttons and cords. Sad to say, the buttons sold there are not as cute as they used to sell couple of years ago. I saw some beads, hmmm.. that's give me inspiration to try some new craft in beads jewelry! So I bought some, and as soon as I finish the jewelry, I'll publish it. :)

Next stop was handicraft store in front of Toko Jopankar. I think it's the most complete handicraft store in Bandung, but unfortunately, I didn't need anything at the moment, so I just bought a bunch of acrylic wool. One of the shopkeepers still recognized me (although I haven't been there for 3 years!). If you have a handicraft hobby, and you stay in Bandung, you better take a look at this store.

Alun-Alun Bandung is a nice place for "economic" shopping. You just need one stop shopping there and you can get all the things you need!
