I recently rediscovered in my garage a 2007 copy of +Item mag from Japan. It is segmented issue from Natural Gardening magazine. NGMagazine focuses on gardening with an emphasis on ZAKKA ("the art of seeing the savvy in the ordinary and mundane".) using "junk" and found objects in gardening.
here is a little sampling the goods found within this issues covers.



Japanese magazines are so great because they are like glorified product catalogs that have heaps of images and great details, and unlike American rags, they have very little, if any, advertisements!


Most even have great "how to" sections on all sorts of subjects. In this case it is building various containers and storage items.






I love Japan and I really love Japanese magazines.
Happy Digging!
Cheers.
