An update to the Tokyo Alley Production Status - Early Bird Discount Extended.
We're incredibly excited to share some big news from Bookshelf Memories! Our long-awaited Tokyo Alley Book Nook is nearing the finish line, and we couldn't be more thrilled. The past few months have been a whirlwind of production, testing, and building anticipation for this unique product. Today, we’re giving you an exclusive look at where we are in the process and why you should be as excited as we are!
Where We Stand
We are happy to announce that our production order is nearly complete! All the pieces of the Tokyo Alley Book Nook are coming together, quite literally. After months of perfecting every intricate detail, we’ve successfully passed our first quality check—a major milestone. Each component has been meticulously crafted to bring out the charm of Tokyo’s alleys.
We’ve also completed our instruction manual. We know that part of the magic of creating this book nook is the assembly process. With this in mind, we’ve made sure our instructions are easy to follow, beautifully illustrated, and filled with tips to make your building experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Whether you're a seasoned DIY enthusiast or someone new to miniatures, you’ll find it stress-free and deeply satisfying.
We’re running our production at full speed to ensure every pre-order is fulfilled in time, and once this production run is complete, we will conduct one final quality check to guarantee everything is perfect before shipping your order to the warehouse.
Why Extend the Pre-Order?
We’ve been overwhelmed by the response to our Tokyo Alley Book Nook and have decided to extend our pre-order launch! Initially, we had planned to close pre-orders earlier, but the excitement and demand have encouraged us to give more people a chance to get in on the early bird offer. This also gives us more time to ensure everything is flawless before the official launch.
Extending the pre-order period means you can still secure your spot and take advantage of the early bird discount, which won’t be available once we start shipping the product out. If you’re still on the fence, now’s the time to lock in your order and get $15 off the retail price. We believe this book nook is something truly special—a perfect gift for yourself or someone who loves travel, Japan, or just beautiful things.
Why This Is a One-of-a-Kind Product
For us, this product is more than just a decoration. The Tokyo Alley Book Nook is a labor of love, born from our experiences in Japan. Like many travelers, we were captivated by the charm of Tokyo’s hidden alleyways—the small ramen shops, the bookstores tucked away in corners, and the soft glow of lanterns lighting the streets. But we wanted more than just photographs to remember it by, so we designed a way to bring these beautiful scenes to life in 3D form.
This book nook allows you to relive the magic of Japan’s streets every time you glance at your bookshelf. It’s also a phone-free activity that offers a creative escape. We all know the satisfaction of finishing something with your own hands, and this kit provides exactly that. Plus, it’s an ideal gift for anyone who loves unique, artistic home décor. Whether you’re a book lover, a miniature enthusiast, or a traveler who’s missing Japan, this product is made for you.
What’s Next?
We’re working hard to ensure everything is flawless, and once it’s all in place, delivery will begin in October. For those who’ve already pre-ordered, we’ll be sending you regular updates to keep you in the loop about when to expect your delivery.
Our goal at Bookshelf Memories is simple: to bring the joy of travel home, in a way that’s interactive, creative, and beautiful. The Tokyo Alley Book Nook is a celebration of that mission, and we can’t wait for you to experience it yourself. The feedback from our beta testers has been overwhelmingly positive—they’ve told us it’s both fun to build and absolutely stunning once it’s complete. We’re confident you’ll feel the same way.
Don’t Miss Out!
If you’ve been following our journey or are just learning about us now, we invite you to take this opportunity to pre-order your Tokyo Alley Book Nook. It’s not just a product—it’s an experience, and we want you to be part of it. This is your chance to be among the first to own a piece of Tokyo, designed by travelers who fell in love with Japan and wanted to share that beauty with the world.
We’re counting down the days until launch and hope you’ll join us in bringing this dream to life. Thank you for being part of this exciting journey—we couldn’t have done it without the incredible support from all of you!
